Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
Simple optimzations and cleanups
Removed compiler warnings and fixed portability issues
Added client functions 'mysql_embedded()' to allow client to check if we are using embedded server
Fixes for purify
used in the handle_options() function (instead of using additional
handle_option() parameter). The default value of the
my_getopt_error_reporter is default_reporter(). One can set it to
other functions if case of need.
Added declarations for print_msg_to_log and vprint_msg_to_log. sql_print_error are simple functions that wrap calls to print_msg_to_log. Define the different error types with MY_ERROR_TYPE, MY_WARNING_TYPE, and MY_INFORMATION_TYPE
gen_lex_hash.cc:
Added NULL error reporting parameter to handle_options
log.cc:
Add print_msg_to_log, print_buffer_to_log, and vprint_msg_to_log. Print_msg_to_log will write the message to the windows event log if on NT. We now have error, warning, and information versions of sql_print_xxxx. T his is a variation of a similar changeset WAX did.
mysqld.cc:
Added option_error_reporter callback function and pass that into handle_options
mysql.cc:
Added NULL as error reporter arg to the end of handle_options
Many files:
Added NULL error reporter parameter as the last paramter to handle_options
my_getopt.c:
Added second function pointer to server as an error reporting callback. Added local function report_option_error that will either write the error to stderr or to the error reporting callback. changed all calls in handle_options from fprintf(stderr, ... ) to report_option_error
my_getopt.h:
Changed declaration of handle_options to use typedefs for the two function pointers. added second function pointer to server as an error reporting callback
mysqld.dsp:
Added custom build step for compiling message file and added message resource file (output of mc)
produce hex digits in lower case). (fixed version)
Replaced _dig_vec array with two _dig_vec_upper/_dig_vec_lower arrays.
Added extra argument to int2str function which controls case of digits you get.
Replaced lot of invocations of int2str for decimal radix with more optimized int10_to_str()
function.
Removed unused my_itoa/my_ltoa functions.
Added option --max-record-length=# to myisamchk
Don't try repair twice if doing myisamchk --repair --force
Shared memory handler didn't clean up things on errors or shutdown
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.
