1. Optimize sequence for constraint alterations

   When you alter several constraints, drops come before adds.

   Where the changes are simple, it should be safe to group them in order to minimize the time that the constraint is not in effect. I have some huge tables. If I alter three constraints to switch from UPDATE to RESTRICT, for example, the third constraint is inactive until the table is literally copied three times.

   There's another post about grouping the alter commands together, and this would make a big improvement where each change causes a table copy.

   In the case I just ran into, however, the generated script was the least efficient method possible to make the necessary changes.

3. International date formatting not working

   Sometime in version 9, 'datetime' fields in tables and queries format to the American standard, even though the formatting options show an example of International formatting, this is not applied

   Could you please describe it in more detail?

   Also, you may need to change or remove a database name in the ‘Database’ field of the Database Connection Properties dialog box (right-click the connection in Database Explorer and select ‘Modify Connection…’ from the popup menu).

   Could you please send us the imported file and let us know if you are importing into a new table or existing one?

8. Combine ALTER Statements

   When making multiple modifications to a table, the generated SQL script contains multiple ALTER statements. For example, If I were to add 3 new columns to a table, the resulting script would be something like...

   ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN newcolumn1 INT;
   ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN newcolumn2 INT;
   ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN newcolumn3 INT;

   ... when these could actually be combined into a single ALTER statement like...

   ALTER TABLE table
   ADD COLUMN newcolumn1 INT,
   ADD COLUMN newcolumn2 INT,
   ADD COLUMN newcolumn3 INT;

   The 3 separate ALTER statements essentially take 3 times longer to run than the single combined ALTER statement. It might not seem like much, but this actually makes a gigantic difference when the table being altered is large, has many indexes, and/or has several things being altered... Imagine a large table that takes an hour to perform an ALTER on, and then having to unnecessarily multiply that hour by the number of things you're altering.

   The same thing happens when doing a schema comparison.

   When making multiple modifications to a table, the generated SQL script contains multiple ALTER statements. For example, If I were to add 3 new columns to a table, the resulting script would be something like...

    Tried with MySQL 5.6 and 5.7

    Explain Partitions returns an error, but it works fine on the MySQL CLI.

    In dbForge I ran:

    And the error I got was:

    Hello,

    This issue is going to be fixed in the next product build. Currently, as a workaround, you can run statement using F5 button.

13. Do not display Object Does Not Exist error when object exists

    Scenario

    DB user has SELECT privileges on mysql.proc.
    DB user has ALL PRIVILEGES on schemaA, and NO PRIVILEGES on schemaB.
    DB user is running dbForge for MySQL 8.0.40
    A Stored Procedure (spA) in schemaA calls a Stored Function in schema A (fnA).
    A Stored Procedure (spB) in schemaB calls the Stored Function in schema A (fnA).

    Therefore, in the Database Explorer tree view, schemaA is listed, schemaB is not.

    Action

    The user expands the list of Stored Functions in schema A, expands fn_A, and then expands the "Used By" list.

    Result

    dbForge pops up an error message stating: Object "schemaB.spB" does not exist.
    Neither schemaA.spA nor schemaB.spB are listed under "Used By".

    Expected Result

    No error message
    schemaA.spA and schemaB.spB listed under Used By
    schemaA.spA is editable
    schemaB.spB is read-only

    Analysis

    Because schemaB is not listed in the Database Explorer, dbForge seems to be unable to list its child objects under the Used By section. When this error happens, it also causes the Used By section to not list ANY objects, even those in schemaA.

    The existence of schemaB is revealed by the query to mysql.proc, so that should allow the Used By section to display schemaB.spB, even if the user cannot edit spB. This is desirable, because it informs the developer that something potentially needs to be refactored if changes are made to fn_A.

    Scenario

    DB user has SELECT privileges on mysql.proc.
    DB user has ALL PRIVILEGES on schemaA, and NO PRIVILEGES on schemaB.
    DB user is running dbForge for MySQL 8.0.40
    A Stored Procedure (spA) in schemaA calls a Stored Function in schema A (fnA).
    A Stored Procedure (spB) in schemaB calls the Stored Function in schema A (fnA).

    Therefore, in the Database Explorer tree view, schemaA is listed, schemaB is not.

    Action

    The user expands the list of Stored Functions in schema A, expands fn_A, and then expands the "Used By" list.

14. Fix Stored Procedure Editor to accept ALTER TABLE xxx RENAME TO yyy

    As of dbForge for MySQL version 8.0.40, the Stored Procedure Editor (and Schema Compare) have started to throw errors when trying to open one of our stored procedures. I have traced it down to the presence of an ALTER TABLE command within the procedure.

    Here is a simple procedure that will trigger the error:

    DELIMITER $$

    DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS sp_test$$

    CREATE DEFINER=root@localhost PROCEDURE sp_test()
    MODIFIES SQL DATA
    BEGIN

    ALTER TABLE foo RENAME TO bar;

    END
    $$

    DELIMITER ;

    Specifically, if you try to open the procedure in the procedure editor, dbForge will display the error message "Unable to parse source text" and refuse to open.

    Similar error messages come up when trying to execute a schema comparison that includes affected procedure.s

15. Be able to close connection from the stored procedure editor

    Not sure if it needs to be classified as a bug or a new features BUT!!!!
    I noticed today after our Aurora AWS Cluster failed over that I was not able to recompile a stored procedure I was altering.
    From a query window you can close the connection and an execute will open it again.
    But you can't close the connection from the editor!!
    And it's the same with Table Editor.
    I know you can close it from the DB Explore but it's inconsistent with the SQL Editor UI. You should have the same buttons.

17. Fix start of comment detection at beginning of line

    When editing SQL code in dbForge for MySQL 7.3.137, there is a case where it fails to detect the "start of comment" delimiter, and incorrectly intreprets the remaining text on the line as SQL code. This breaks the syntax highlighter, auto-complete, and ability to save stored procedures, functions, etc.

    Specifically, when using a double-dash "--" to start a comment in MySQL, it normally requires whitespace after the double-dash to be interpreted as a start of comment delimiter. However, when the double dash is at the beginning of a line, it does not require whitespace.

    See: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/ansi-diff-comments.html

    Example:

    -- This is a valid comment
    --This is also a valid comment

19. it cannot be brought to the foreground

    the latest version 7.3.137 once minimized or hiden by another program, after some time it cannot be brought to the foreground. And if you try to close it from the task bar, pops up a box to save any unsaved objects, but there is way to click on the buttons, it like something else is grabbing the input. In that state I saves a process dump. Please let me know how can I uploaded it to you.

20. Add schema name to qualify table in intellisense

    I love your intellisense but....
    if you are working on a query in a different schema that the join you are making the schema name is to inserted.

    for example let say you have scha.table1, schb.table2, schb.table3 with and FK defintion between the latter 2 tables

    if you are in scha and start typing

    select *
    from schb.table2
    inner join
