Does SQLDeveloper support executing scripts?

Question

I was trying to follow some instructions today, and it starts with the comment

REM  In SQLPlus I manually copy in each line and execute it.

Answer 1

you can do it using sqlcl in the same way how you would do it using SQL PLUS, from command line:

sqlcl user/password@host:port:sid @file.sql

file should be in the same directory where sqlcl is.

This solution is the best option if you are trying to execute a lot of instruction on sql file.
