;;; Commentary:

;; Please send bug reports and bug fixes to the mailing list at
;; [e-mail].  If you want to subscribe to the mailing list, send
;; mail to [e-mail] with `subscribe sql.el FIRSTNAME
;; LASTNAME' in the mail body.

;; This file provides a sql-mode and a sql-interactive-mode.  My goals
;; were two simple modes providing syntactic hilighting.  The
;; interactive mode had to provide a command-line history; the other
;; mode had to provide "send region/buffer to SQL interpreter"
;; functions.  "simple" in this context means easy to use, easy to
;; maintain and little or no bells and whistles.

;; If anybody feels like extending this sql mode, take a look at the
;; above mentioned modes and write a sqlx-mode on top of this one.  If
;; this proves to be difficult, please suggest changes that will
;; facilitate your plans.

;; sql-interactive-mode is used to interact with a SQL interpreter
;; process in a SQLi buffer (usually called `*SQL*').  The SQLi buffer
;; is created by calling a SQL interpreter-specific entry function.  Do
;; *not* call sql-interactive-mode by itself.

;; The list of currently supported interpreters and the corresponding
;; entry function used to create the SQLi buffers is shown with
;; `sql-help' (M-x sql-help).

;; Since sql-interactive-mode is built on top of the general
;; command-interpreter-in-a-buffer mode (comint mode), it shares a
;; common base functionality, and a common set of bindings, with all
;; modes derived from comint mode.  This makes these modes easier to
;; use.

;; sql-mode can be used to keep editing SQL statements.  The SQL
;; statements can be sent to the SQL process in the SQLi buffer.

;; For documentation on the functionality provided by comint mode, and
;; the hooks available for customizing it, see the file `comint.el'.

;; Hint for newbies: take a look at `dabbrev-expand', `abbrev-mode', and
;; `imenu-add-menubar-index'.

;;; Requirements for Emacs 19.34:

;; If you are using Emacs 19.34, you will have to get and install
;; the file regexp-opt.el
;; <URL:ftp://ftp.ifi.uio.no/pub/emacs/emacs-20.3/lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el>
;; and the custom package
;; <URL:http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~abraham/custom/>.

;;; Bugs:

;; Using sql-ms (isql by Microsoft): When commands with syntax errors
;; or execution errors are executed, there is no server feedback.
;; This happens in stored procedures for example.  The server messages
;; only appear after the process is exited.  This makes things
;; somewhat unreliable.

;; ChangeLog available on request.

;;; To Do:

;; Add better hilight support for other brands; there is a bias towards
;; Oracle because that's what I use at work.  Anybody else just send in
;; your lists of reserved words, keywords and builtin functions!  As
;; long as I don't receive any feedback, everything is hilighted with
;; ANSI keywords only.  I received the list of ANSI keywords from a
;; user; if you know of any changes, let me know.

;; Add different hilighting levels.

Use an entry function to open an interactive SQL buffer.  This buffer is
usually named `*SQL*'.  The name of the major mode is SQLi.

Use the following commands to start a specific SQL interpreter:

    PostGres: \\[sql-postgres]
    MySQL: \\[sql-mysql]
    SQLite: \\[sql-sqlite]

Other non-free SQL implementations are also supported:

    Solid: \\[sql-solid]
    Oracle: \\[sql-oracle]
    Informix: \\[sql-informix]
    Sybase: \\[sql-sybase]
    Ingres: \\[sql-ingres]
    Microsoft: \\[sql-ms]
    Interbase: \\[sql-interbase]
    Linter: \\[sql-linter]

But we urge you to choose a free implementation instead of these.

Once you have the SQLi buffer, you can enter SQL statements in the
buffer.  The output generated is appended to the buffer and a new prompt
is generated.  See the In/Out menu in the SQLi buffer for some functions
that help you navigate through the buffer, the input history, etc.

If you have a really complex SQL statement or if you are writing a
procedure, you can do this in a separate buffer.  Put the new buffer in
`sql-mode' by calling \\[sql-mode].  The name of this buffer can be
anything.  The name of the major mode is SQL.

In this SQL buffer (SQL mode), you can send the region or the entire
buffer to the interactive SQL buffer (SQLi mode).  The results are
appended to the SQLi buffer without disturbing your SQL buffer."

  "Major mode to edit SQL.

You can send SQL statements to the SQLi buffer using
\\[sql-send-region].  Such a buffer must exist before you can do this.
See `sql-help' on how to create SQLi buffers.

\\{sql-mode-map}
Customization: Entry to this mode runs the `sql-mode-hook'.

When you put a buffer in SQL mode, the buffer stores the last SQLi
buffer created as its destination in the variable `sql-buffer'.  This
will be the buffer \\[sql-send-region] sends the region to.  If this
SQLi buffer is killed, \\[sql-send-region] is no longer able to
determine where the strings should be sent to.  You can set the
value of `sql-buffer' using \\[sql-set-sqli-buffer].

For information on how to create multiple SQLi buffers, see
`sql-interactive-mode'.

Note that SQL doesn't have an escape character unless you specify
one.  If you specify backslash as escape character in SQL,
you must tell Emacs.  Here's how to do that in your `~/.emacs' file:

(defun sql-interactive-mode ()
  "Major mode to use a SQL interpreter interactively.

Do not call this function by yourself.  The environment must be
initialized by an entry function specific for the SQL interpreter.  See
`sql-help' for a list of available entry functions.

\\[comint-send-input] after the end of the process' output sends the
text from the end of process to the end of the current line.
\\[comint-send-input] before end of process output copies the current
line minus the prompt to the end of the buffer and sends it.
\\[comint-copy-old-input] just copies the current line.
Use \\[sql-accumulate-and-indent] to enter multi-line statements.

If you want to make multiple SQL buffers, rename the `*SQL*' buffer
using \\[rename-buffer] or \\[rename-uniquely] and start a new process.
See `sql-help' for a list of available entry functions.  The last buffer
created by such an entry function is the current SQLi buffer.  SQL
buffers will send strings to the SQLi buffer current at the time of
their creation.  See `sql-mode' for details.

Sample session using two connections:

1. Create first SQLi buffer by calling an entry function.
2. Rename buffer \"*SQL*\" to \"*Connection 1*\".
3. Create a SQL buffer \"test1.sql\".
4. Create second SQLi buffer by calling an entry function.
5. Rename buffer \"*SQL*\" to \"*Connection 2*\".
6. Create a SQL buffer \"test2.sql\".

Now \\[sql-send-region] in buffer \"test1.sql\" will send the region to
buffer \"*Connection 1*\", \\[sql-send-region] in buffer \"test2.sql\"
will send the region to buffer \"*Connection 2*\".

If you accidentally suspend your process, use \\[comint-continue-subjob]
to continue it.  On some operating systems, this will not work because
the signals are not supported.

\\{sql-interactive-mode-map}
Customization: Entry to this mode runs the hooks on `comint-mode-hook'
and `sql-interactive-mode-hook' (in that order).  Before each input, the
hooks on `comint-input-filter-functions' are run.  After each SQL
interpreter output, the hooks on `comint-output-filter-functions' are
run.

Variable `sql-input-ring-file-name' controls the initialisation of the
input ring history.

Variables `comint-output-filter-functions', a hook, and
`comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input' and
`comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output' control whether input and output
cause the window to scroll to the end of the buffer.

If you want to make SQL buffers limited in length, add the function
`comint-truncate-buffer' to `comint-output-filter-functions'.

Here is an example for your .emacs file.  It keeps the SQLi buffer a
certain length.

\(add-hook 'sql-interactive-mode-hook
    \(function (lambda ()
        \(setq comint-output-filter-functions 'comint-truncate-buffer))))

Here is another example.  It will always put point back to the statement
you entered, right above the output it created.
