Hi,

DB Query plugin sends full SQL query to Oracle (or PostGIS) from the
input window. Nice tool indeed because query can contain joins, and if
the resulting lines do not have geometry a default geometry is created
so that it can still be opened by OJ. Therefore pure attribute tables
can also be queried with OpenJUMP. Spatial queries naturally work as
well if someone has nerves to write them into input box.

Actually I had not really worked with these layers before, I use the
tool for visualizing Oracle data and converting to shapefiles. Editing
does not make sense often because results cannot be written back to
Oracle. I came to this because I had to add X and Y coordinates as
attributes and I was remembering that there was some nice new tool
introduced just for this purpose and I tried everything I found from the
menu.

Unfortunately I cannot repeat the error today. All the tools, inluding
Auto Assign Attribute work just perfectly :(

          I haven't worked with the DB Query plugin from Oracle.  Does
it load all of the layer into memory or just the portion on screen? 
        
          The only thing I can think of is that the FeatureCollection
iterator doesn't work for this dataset.  Are there other OJ tools that
do similar things that work with this layer?

                Hi,
                
                  I'll take a look at it to see where it might be
getting hung up.  Clearly, it shouldn't lock up.

                        Could it be that the Auto Assign Attribute tool
needs write access to
                        the layer, and the DB Query plug-in only has
read access?
