more logical table/index_flags
return HA_ERR_WRONG_COMMAND instead of abstract methods where appropriate
max_keys and other limits renamed to max_supported_keys/etc
max_keys/etc are now wrappers to max_supported_keys/etc
ha_index_init/ha_rnd_init/ha_index_end/ha_rnd_end are now wrappers to real {index,rnd}_{init,end} to enforce strict pairing
names to lower case using latin1 instead of utf-8 in sql_acl.cc if lower_case_table_names
was on. Also replaced in other such places system_charset_info with files_charset_info
for consistency.
New records_in_range() interface (similar to read_range())
Macros for faster bitmap handling
Simplify read_range() code (#WL1786)
New general key_cmp() function to compare keys
- New solution after discussions with Sergei, no handler specific code or error messages should be in sql layer.
next_result, only check for error if check is -1
Improved index_read
Added two status variables:
binlog_cache_use - counts number of transactions that used somehow
transaction temporary binary log.
binlog_cache_disk_use - counts number of transactions that required
disk I/O for storing info in this this binary log.
init the binlog_cache (THD::transaction.trans_log).
I have checked all places where trans_log is used, because as now
it may not be inited in some cases, we have to be cautious
(will forward this commit mail to Heikki).
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
This commit is related to my previos one(ChangeSet 1.1583 03/08/27 18:03:39).
Note about COMMIT&ROLLBACK:
Only 'COMMIT' statement updates the binary log.
'ROLLBACK' statement doesn't update the binlog.
fix for BUG#1113 "INSERT into non-trans table SELECT ; ROLLBACK" does not send warning"
and
fix for BUG#873 "In transaction, INSERT to non-trans table is written too early to binlog".
Now we don't always write the non-trans update immediately to the binlog;
if there is something in the binlog cache we write it to the binlog cache
(because the non-trans update could depend on a trans table which was modified
earlier in the transaction); then in case of ROLLBACK, we write the binlog
cache to the binlog, wrapped with BEGIN/ROLLBACK.
This guarantees that the slave does the same updates.
For ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT: when we execute a SAVEPOINT command we write it
to the binlog cache. At ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT, if some non-trans table was updated,
we write ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT to the binlog cache; when the transaction
terminates (COMMIT/ROLLBACK), the binlog cache will be flushed to the binlog
(because of the non-trans update) so we'll have SAVEPOINT and ROLLBACK TO
SAVEPOINT in the binlog.
Apart from this rare case of updates of mixed table types in transaction, the
usual way is still clear the binlog cache at ROLLBACK, or chop it at
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT (meaning the SAVEPOINT command is also chopped, which
is fine).
Note that BUG#873 encompasses subbugs 1) and 2) of BUG#333 "3 binlogging bugs when doing INSERT with mixed InnoDB/MyISAM".
Merge InnoDB-4.0.14: SAVEPOINT now implemented; InnoDB now accepts also column prefix keys; crashing bug in ON UPDATE CASCADE fixed; page checksum formula fixed
