Bug #53848	No prompt to save unsaved changes

Category:	MySQL Workbench: SQL Editor	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.2.21 OSS	OS:	Windows (7)
Assigned to:	Alfredo Kojima	CPU Architecture:	Any
Tags:	changes, save

Description:
1. Open up SQL Editor in Workbench
2. Type random characters
3. Close Workbench

No "You have unsaved changes" dialog comes up.

Same occurs if you have multiple tabs open and close a tab where changes have been made to an open file.

I know I'm a namby pamby Windows user but I've lost a few changes to files I've been working on by forgetting to save before closing. I will learn :-)

How to repeat:
See above.

Suggested fix:
Prompt user to save or discard unsaved changes when closing tabs or Workbench.

Thank you for the bug report.

Added save confirmation for SQL Scripts and recordsets when quitting WB

fix confirmed in repository

An entry has been added to the 5.2.22 changelog:

In the SQL Editor, if code was typed into the SQL Query tab, and then the application exited, MySQL Workbench did not prompt the user regarding unsaved changes, and so any code typed into the SQL Query tab, and not saved, was lost.
