Solarized Dark color scheme for Oracle SQL Developer

This is an implementation of the Solarized Dark color scheme for Oracle SQL Developer. It borrows from ozmoroz's spinoff of the Obsidian colour scheme for Oracle SQL Developer. It is based on Obsidian Eclipse colour scheme by Morinar.

Installation

Unfortunately Oracle doesn't make it easy to import a new colour scheme into SQL Developer, thus a little bit of hacking is required.

  • Locate file dtcache.xml in the SQL Developer's settings directory. On my system it is located in directory C:\Users\sergey\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\system4.0.3.16.84\o.ide.12.1.3.2.41.140908.1359

  • Locate <schemeMap> tag inside dtcache.xml file. Insert the content of solarized-dark-scheme.xml file inside <schemeMap> alongside the other colour schemes. Be careful not to break the XML.

  • Launch SQL Developer. Navigate to menu Tools->Preferences, then select item Code Editor -> PL/SQL Syntax Colours in the left pane.

  • Select "Solarized Dark" in the "Scheme" drop down list on the top.

Light theme

Thanks to smiller6 for contributing a light theme. Follow the same instructions above, but use the file solarized-light-scheme.xml instead.

Tweaks

I prefer my background a little darker than the standard one. To get a darker background, replace all occurrences of -16766154 with -16771557 before pasting into your dtcache.xml file.
