Compile dialog box

The Compile dialog box displays compilation error messages during batch compilation and enables you to halt and resume compilation as well as navigate to error source.

This dialog box contains:

Status Line

Specifies the following information while program units are being compiled:

  • name and type of the program unit currently being compiled

  • [INTERRUPTED] when you click Interrupt

  • percentage of program units that have been compiled

Compilation Errors

A scrollable, mouse-sensitive area that displays errors encountered during compilation of the selected program units.

Click an error to display the Program Unit editor and the program unit where the error is located.  If you click an error while in an interrupted state of compilation (as a result of clicking Interrupt) a message box displays, warning you that going to the source of an error will abandon the batch compilation.

Interrupt

Temporarily stops compilation—for example, when too many errors are being generated.

Resume

Resumes compilation after an interrupt.

Goto Error

Displays the Program Unit editor containing the program unit source at the location of the first error.

If you click this button while in an interrupted state of compilation (as a result of clicking Interrupt) a message box displays, warning you that going to the source of an error will abandon the batch compilation.

Also displays the PL/SQL Compilation Messages dialog box: a scrollable, mouse-sensitive list box where you can browse all errors encountered during compilation of the selected program units. Click an error in the list box to display the Program Unit editor and the program unit where the error is located.

If compilation ends with no errors detected, the message Compilation completed successfully is displayed on the status line. If compilation ends with errors detected, the message Compilation completed with errors is displayed.
