Release Highlights

Recent Notable Changes

(Enterprise & Business 7.6) DATA_DML Package Method Creates Changesets With Oracle SQL Parser Disabled by Default

Using Oracle SQL Parser for large DML scripts can result in performance issues during Forecast and Deploy operations. Because these scripts should only include data modifications and Oracle SQL Parser is designed to provide insight into DDL operations, Oracle SQL Parser provides little to no value to DML scripts. Starting with version 7.6, Oracle SQL Parser will be disabled for scripts Packaged using the DATA_DML package method. If you wish to re-enable Oracle SQL Parser for scripts Packaged using the DATA_DML package method, you may do so by setting disableSqlParser=false in the metadata.properties for that directory or sub-directory.

For more information consult the documentation: Using the metadata.properties file
