embedded library
I decided to get rid of #define mysql_some_function in mysql.h
It puzzles users and makes problems with dynamic libraries
Finally, there are only two functions left, that are covered with
the #define-s and it won't hurt performance at all
Prepared statements in embedded server
Several changes in library code with two goals:
to make mysql_prepare_stmt working in embedded server
to get rid of #define mysql_interface_func mysql->methods->interface_func
in user's interface
For now following tasks have been done:
- PASSWORD() function was rewritten. PASSWORD() now returns SHA1
hash_stage2; for new passwords user.password contains '*'hash_stage2; sql_yacc.yy also fixed;
- password.c: new functions were implemented, old rolled back to 4.0 state
- server code was rewritten to use new authorization algorithm (check_user(), change
user, and other stuff in sql/sql_parse.cc)
- client code was rewritten to use new authorization algorithm
(mysql_real_connect, myslq_authenticate in sql-common/client.c)
- now server barks on 45-byte-length 4.1.0 passwords and refuses 4.1.0-style
authentification. Users with 4.1.0 passwords are blocked (sql/sql_acl.cc)
- mysqladmin.c was fixed to work correctly with new passwords
Tests for 4.0-4.1.1, 4.1.1-4.1.1 (with or without db/password) logons was performed;
mysqladmin also was tested. Additional check are nevertheless necessary.
client capabilities included into libmysqld
some API methods became "virtual"
lots of duplicated code removed
IMHO all the above made library's code way more pleasant to look at, didn't it?
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
Here is another pack of changes about gathering common client code in
sql-common/client.c.
Now i symlink the client.c from sql/ and libmysql/. These directories
have client_settings.h files to be included to client.c. It contains
defines and declarations to compile client.c in appropriate manner.
Also i've added include/sql_common.h, containing declarations of what
is exported from client.c
I removed as many #ifdef-s from client.c as i dared to. I think it's better
push it with some extra #ifdef-s now (of course, if everythihg besides it is
ok) so other people can check the code.
Added MYSQL_TYPE_NULL as a dummy bind case for fetch buffers
Fix for offset based re-fetch using mysql_fetch_column
Misc cleanups for ODBC compatibility
Portability fixes
Added new client function: mysql_get_server_version()
New server help code (From Victor Vagin)
Fixed wrong usage of binary()
Disabled RTREE usage for now.
Call pthread_mutex_destroy() on not used mutex.
Changed comments in .h and .c files from // -> /* */
Added detection of mutex on which one didn't call pthread_mutex_destroy()
Fixed bug in create_tmp_field() which causes a memory overrun in queries that uses "ORDER BY constant_expression"
Added optimisation for ORDER BY NULL
