Hi All:
I am using Microsoft Terminal application to launch SQLCL.
My computer: Windows 10 64-bit (20H2)
Windows Terminal: 1.11.2921.0
SQLCL: 1.11.2921.0
if I enable statusbar by adding below lines in my login.sql, I will run into a weird issue related to scrolling. See below for further details:
set statusbar add editmode
set statusbar add txn
set statusbar add timing
set statusbar add cwd
The issue is: if I run a simple SELECT with generate many lines of output (for example few hundreds lines), in Windows Terminal, I can't use my mouse wheel to scroll up to see my output.
if I remove all above setting about statusbar from my login.sql, I don't have issue: I can use my mouse wheel to scroll up to see my output.
Also, if I set statusbar in my login.sql and use Window's Command Prompt application to launch SQLCL, I don't have any issue to scroll up to view the output.
Per my study, SQLCL's statusbar doesn't work well with Windows Terminal. I think Oracle SQLCL team can say "this is Windows terminal issue". But, given Windows Terminal is getting more popular (it is my go-to tool now) and I hope Oracle SQLCL team can fix this issue in future release.
Thank you!
