Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-189:
-----------------------------------------
I attached an image, how IntelliJ handles this. So in general you have Code
completion for normal/advanced keywords in SQL files, w/o the need of a
connection. But there is a notification which shows you, that you should better
configure a data source/connection to get advanced code assistance, which is
quite good. So I can use IntelliJ for SQL files with Code completion and
writing my SQL w/o using a connection, This is not possible with NetBeans.
> SQL editor, shouldn't ask evertime to set the connection

> Of course, the SQL editor doesn't make sense, if you don't set a connection
> to see databases, tables and columns, but sometimes or often, you only want
> to scratch a SQL query and you want the code completion for the SQL stuff,
> like the keywords (SELECT, FROM, WHERE) or aggregate functions (COUNT, AVG,
> etc.) So this is not possible, without setting a connection. But when I don't
> have a connection, I can't use the code completion, becauses it will ends up
> in a loop. See my little screen capture for what I mean.
