Symptoms

In Oracle SQL Developer, some objects (e.g. tables) under particular user / schema are not displayed in the tables listing.

In SQL*Plus, the objects are listed fine when issuing a SQL statement like:

SQL> SELECT owner, object_type, object_name FROM all_objects 
WHERE object_type='TABLE' AND owner='<MYUSER>'
/

If a connection is made to another database instance via Oracle SQL Developer the objects may be displayed fine.
