Instructions

1. Understand the task: If no argument given, pick the next unchecked item from the TODO above. Otherwise, match the request to an item if applicable.

2. Follow /dev-autodev loop with these project-specific details:

   • Implement:

     • Add or modify relevant files under src/
     • Reuse existing parser infrastructure (e.g., parse_begin_exception_end())
     • Add tests in tests/sqlparser_<dialect>.rs
     • For dialect-specific syntax, include a comment with the official doc link
     • AST convention (issue #1204): wrap new statements in a named struct, not inline enum fields.

       // Good: named struct
       pub struct Throw { pub error_number: Option<Expr>, ... }
       Statement::Throw(Throw)
       
       // Bad: inline fields
       Statement::Throw { error_number: Option<Expr>, ... }
       

     • Parser convention: parse functions should be standalone (parse the full statement including its keyword) and return the struct, not Statement. In the keyword dispatch, rewind the token first:

       Keyword::THROW => {
           self.prev_token();
           self.parse_throw().map(Into::into)
       },
       

     • No early-return for empty input: do not add short-circuit checks for semicolons or EOF at the start of parse functions. Let the function error naturally on incomplete input.

   • Verify:

     cargo test
     cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
     cargo fmt --all -- --check
     

   • Update this skill's TODO: Mark completed items with [x] and update the remaining count.

   • PR title must include the dialect name prefix (e.g., MSSQL: Add support for ...).
