Download [PATCHED] Tnsping Utility For 32bit Windows 10

I have recently downloaded latest version of Oracle SQL Developer (4.0.0.13), and my idea was that tnsping.exe should go along with it - but this is not the case. Also I was surprised that SQL Developer is provided as archive of files without any kind of installer.Can somebody advice where to download tnsping.exe?

Download Tnsping Utility For 32bit Windows 10

The only shortcoming of Instant Client for me is there is no tnsping utility. It is very useful when you publish your program in a big company, and some users can connect to an Oracle server and some cannot. And the tnsping is very useful to trace errors.

Of course, you can complete your instant client with tnsping utility. There are many articles on the web about it. The only problem is that you have to copy many DLLs form the complete Oracle client to use tnsping, and the Instant Client is no more "instant". That was the idea - to write your own tnsping utility.

In this program I use a little trick. The tnsping utility inspects if the Oracle listener working or not. This program only simulates it. I try to connect into Oracle using a connect string with a dummy user and dummy password. I get an error message. If the error message is "ORA-01017" that is good for us: that means the listener is good, but the username/password is not. No problem: I don't want to connect, just inspect the listener.
