v$session osuser/program issue when sqldeveloper and oracle client installed

In v$session osuser, program are not set when oracle client 10.2.0.1 is used when SQLDeveloper and oracle client are installed on the same machine. This issue doesn’t occur when oracle client software (10.2.0.1) is not installed with SQLDeveloper, a workaround the issue is to update the following JDBC jars in $ORACLE_HOME. The jar files can be downloaded from the following URL http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_10201.html.

Following jars were replaced in oracle client directory (Note: you may want to backup the original jars before overwriting them):
ojdbc14.jar – $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib
ojdbc14_g.jar – $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib
ojdbc14dms.jar – $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib
ojdbc14dms_g.jar – $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib
orai18n.jar – $ORACLE_HOME/jlib
