(Initial caps for each word.) For example, instead of writing
Until_condition, Until_Log_File, and Until_log_pos, write
Until_Condition, Until_Log_File, and Until_Log_pos.
has (in mysql-test-run) a slave-net-timeout=10. So the 'sleep 1' below
was converted in 'sleep 10', so slave thought that connection was down,
so reconnected, so got an additional (fake) Rotate event, which shifted
the positions displayed by SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
"CHANGE MASTER makes SQL thread restart from coordinates of I/O thread".
So, in CHANGE MASTER:
when it seems reasonable that the user did not want to discontinue
its replication (i.e. when he is not specifying host or port or master_log_file
or master_log_pos; this will be documented), set the coordinates of the
I/O thread to those of the SQL thread. This way, the SQL thread will see
no discontinuity in the relay log (i.e. will skip no events), because
the I/O thread will fill the brand new relay log with the events which
are just after the position where the SQL thread had stopped
(before CHANGE MASTER was issued).
And a new test for this bug.
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.
rli->save_temporary_tables and slave_open_temp_tables
(in old 4.0 you could make "SHOW STATUS LIKE 'slave_open_temp_tables'" grow
indefinitely by doing RESET SLAVE and replicating always the same CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE).
It's critical to reset save_temporary_tables to 0 (otherwise you may later
read memory which has been freed) so this changeset should go into 4.1.
Cleaned up (and disabled part of) date/time/datetime format patch. One can't anymore change default read/write date/time/formats.
This is becasue the non standard datetime formats can't be compared as strings and MySQL does still a lot of datetime comparisons as strings
Changed flag argument to str_to_TIME() and get_date() from bool to uint
Removed THD from str_to_xxxx functions and Item class.
Fixed core dump when doing --print-defaults
Move some common string functions to strfunc.cc
Dates as strings are now of type my_charset_bin instead of default_charset()
Introduce IDENT_QUOTED to not have to create an extra copy of simple identifiers (all chars < 128)
Removed xxx_FORMAT_TYPE enums and replaced them with the old TIMESTAMP_xxx enums
Renamed some TIMESTAMP_xxx enums to more appropriate names
Use defines instead of integers for date/time/datetime string lengths
Added to build system and use the new my_strtoll10() function.
