You will find exactly what you are looking for within Oracle Graphics V2.0, Oracle's graphical application development tool. It contains a very powerful PL/SQL development environment whose features include the following:
- single stepping through program units
- viewing/modifying variables
- setting breakpoints
- attaching triggers to specific lines of code
While this development environment is an integrated part of Oracle Graphics, you can still use it to develop generic PL/SQL for use in Oracle Forms or Oracle Reports. (Note, however, that you will not be able to reference Formsor Reports-specific built-ins).
Future versions of this development environment will be tightly integrated with future versions of Forms, Reports, and the database itself. This will allow rapid and efficient development and debugging of everything from Forms triggers to stored procedures!
But don't wait... ask your sales rep about Oracle Graphics today!
