Eric Bresie commented on NETBEANS-189:
--------------------------------------

Testing includes:
# Starting netbeans
# Ensure No connections are yet established
# Create a new SQL FIleFile...New...Other..Sql File (set given filename)
# Edit SQL file.  Type "SE" + "CTRL+Space" for auto completion of SELECT
# Attempt CTRL+Space => No Suggestions [this is as no connection established 
yet]
# Complete basic select statement (i.e. SELECT * from SomD;)
# No connection selected yet.
# On select line, attempt to run
# Shows "No database connection is selected.  Please select a connection in the 
Connection combo box in the editor toolbar."
# Create a valid DB Connection in Database services pane to appliable DB.
# Select new DB Connection from Connection combo box
# Type new line with SELECT then attempt autocompletion.  This will show 
available DB schema based on the given connection to auto complete with.
# Once rest of select statement complete, attempt to run expression.  Will show 
resulting query results.

> 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.
