Comments handling suggestion

Post by Macik » Sun 21 Aug 2016 11:21

I have a huge structured table where many table and fields had it's own mysql comments right in the scheme.

Code: Select all

CREATE TABLE `some` (
col1 `somecol1` char not null COMMENT `somecol1 description`
…
) COMMENT `some table description`;
So my suggestion is to «get in work» these comments to simplify work with tables (as examples):
columns comments can be viewed on hovering
  • - on column header in data view
    - on column name in SQL editor
    - on column name in Explorer
    on so on...
also table comments can viewed on hovering cursor on
  • - on tab header with table data
    - on table name in SQL editor
    - on table name in explorer window
    and so on...
Think it'll be helpful and throw away need to switch to tables scheme every time I forgot table or column purpose...
