SCO 5.7.x New ComparisonOption: IgnoreCheckingSchemaExists - Purpose?

mbruegel

Hi There,

With Schema Compare for Oracle v. 5.7.2  under the DefaultOptions2 in the registry settings I see a new comparison option named:  IgnoreCheckingSchemaExists

However, I do not see a corresponding option in the UI options nor did find any references to the option in the documentation.

Could you please explain what this option does (is it an undocumented / manual option reserved for special cases)?  What issues is it intended to address?

Thanks,

Hi, thank you for forum post.

What is the registry path you find the DefaultOptions2 key?  I ask the question, as I do not have an entry named gnoreCheckingSchemaExists in
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Red Gate\Data Compare for Oracle 5\UI\ for the DefaultOptions2 key.

What options do you have enabled when creating a new project?

Many Thanks
Eddie

Hi, thank you for your reply.

A support ticket has been generated for you.  I will make a request for further information, as I am sure you do not want to pass this information via a public forum.

I will post a reply once I have identified the IgnoreCheckingSchemaExists value in the DefaultOptions2 registry key.

Many Thanks
Eddie
