I'm trying to connect to a PostgreSQL 9.1 database using Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04, but I'm not having any success so far.
First, if I add a third party driver on preferences, when adding a new connection there's no tab for PostgreSQL (it works fine for MySQL though). I'm using a JDBC4 version 9.1 driver, but I tried a JDBC3 of the same version and still get the same thing.
Second, there's nothing like manual configuration tab when adding a new connection. The closest is the Advanced option on Oracle tab, where I can provide a custom URL, but it fails because complains about the selected Driver (of course).
Finally, I got connected importing a connection from an XML file (contents below), but it displays only my schemas and doesn't show my tables inside them.
So, my question is: does Orable SQL Developer support PostgreSQL connections? Is there any other way to have my tables being displayed in the ObjectViewer?
