1.2.1 – 2025-04-26

Fixed

• Corrected syntax name from hivesql -> hiveql

1.2.0 – 2025-04-25

Added

• Dialect-aware completions: split SQL completion into a pure ANSI-generic provider plus per-dialect providers for SQLite, HiveQL, BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, Trino, SingleStore, SparkSQL, FlinkSQL and N1QL
• Vendor-specific sets: extracted all non-ANSI keywords, data types and functions into their own <set> blocks
• Syntax-triggered loading: each provider now only fires for its <syntax> (e.g. mysql, postgresql, tsql, etc.)

Changed

• Renamed generic provider to sql-generic and pruned it to true ANSI-SQL (SQL:2016) only
• Removed MySQL/PostgreSQL/Oracle extras from ANSI core sets

Fixed

• Ensured WHEN, THEN, ELSE and other ANSI CASE keywords are available in generic completions

1.1.1 – 2025‑04‑25

Added

• added WHERE keyword to completions

1.1.0 – 2025‑04‑25

Changed

• Refined injection handling for better embedded language support
• Added dialect-specific indentation rules for improved formatting consistency
