Need visual indicator that refreshing the cache is complete

Post by Thenrich » Thu 09 May 2019 18:43

There are times when a connection gets broken or I added a new object. When I reset and refresh the cache, I don't get the suggestions I am expecting.

For example I type: Use and I am expecting a list of databases and I don't get them. I keep hitting ctrl-space and no databases are showing. I am on a VPN connection and sometimes it's pretty slow. I need a way to know that SQL Complete has finished refreshing its cache and it's just taking some time to finish. Sometimes the query window gets 'bad' and I need to open a new window. I want to know if this is the case so I don't have to wait thinking SQL Complete is still refreshing its cache.

We recommend you to try selecting 'Edit -> Code Completion -> Reset Suggestions Cache' from the main menu.

I know about this. I want a visual indicator that it's done refreshing.

When would one reset vs refresh?

The 'Refresh Local Cache' fully resets the cache for all of the databases of the connection and starts object describing for each database the user refers to from scratch, whereas the 'Reset Suggestions Cache' updates the suggestion list with the objects for the current database only.
