Bug #8958	MySQL Query Browser does not list direction of stores procedure parameters
Submitted:	4 Mar 2005 21:32	Modified:	5 Mar 2009 12:18
Reporter:	Mike Hillyer	Email Updates:
Status:	Won't fix	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Query Browser	Severity:	S4 (Feature request)
Version:	1.0.6, 1.2.12	OS:	Windows (Windows XP SP2)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
When viewing a stored procedure in the schema browser, the parameters and their datatypes are listed. However, it is not indicated as to whether the parameters are IN, OUT, or INOUT. 

Adding this information will be useful to our users so they get an instant picture of the parameters AND their directions.

How to repeat:
View a stored procedure in the schema browser.

Suggested fix:
Add a prefix to each. Instead of:

paramname TYPE

use:

DIRECTION paramname TYPE

example:

IN empno INT
OUT fname VARCHAR

Thank you for a reasonable feature request.

Many thanks for writing a bug report. We are on the way to implement full functionality of MySQL Query Browser into MySQL Workbench. We won't add this feature request anymore.
