I'm using SQL Developer 4.1.3.20 (build Main 20.78)
When I enter a describe table command that also contains comments (using either the /* */ or the double dash "--")
SQL Developer seems to be taking the last word in my comments as the item it is trying to describe.
I tried it a few different ways:
1) describe table_1; /* child table of table_2 */
RESULT: ERROR: object */ does not exist
2) describe table_1; -- child table of table_2
RESULTS: It actually does a describe on table_2 instead of table_1 as requested.
3) describe table_1; -- my comment table_that_does_not_exist
RESULTS: ERROR: object TABLE_THAT_DOES_NOT_EXIST does not exist
In all instances the comment text is turned grey as expected, so it seems to be recognizing it as a comment.
I know its a minor issue but was curious if others have same issue?
