when calling a SP from C API"
The bug was caused by lack of checks for misuse in mysql_real_query.
A stored procedure always returns at least one result, which is the
status of execution of the procedure itself.
This result, or so-called OK packet, is similar to a result
returned by INSERT/UPDATE/CREATE operations: it contains the overall
status of execution, the number of affected rows and the number of
warnings. The client test program attached to the bug did not read this
result and ivnoked the next query. In turn, libmysql had no check for
such scenario and mysql_real_query was simply trying to send that query
without reading the pending response, thus messing up the communication
protocol.
The fix is to return an error from mysql_real_query when it's called
prior to retrieval of all pending results.
mysqldump did not select the correct database before trying to dump
views from it. this resulted in an empty result set, which in turn
startled mysql-dump into a core-dump. this only happened for views,
not for tables, and was only visible with multiple databases that
weren't by sheer luck in the order mysqldump required, anyway. this
fixes by selecting the correct database before dumping views; it also
catches the empty set-condition if it should occur for other reasons.

do not look for client-specific commands while inside a multi-line comment.
we will allow multi-comments pretty much anywhere within SQL-statements,
but client-specific commands (help, use, print, ...) must be the first token
in the input.
- Include prefix files that renames all public functions in yaSSLs
OpenSSL API to ya<function_name>. They will otherwise conflict
with OpenSSL functions if loaded by an application that uses OpenSSL
as well as libmysqlclient with yaSSL support.
(The above problem only occurs with -T -- create a separate file for
each table / view.) This ChangeSet results in correct output of view-
information while omitting the information for the view's stand-in
table. The rationale is that with -T, the user is likely interested
in transferring part of a database, not the db in its entirety (that
would be difficult as replay order is obscure, the files being named
for the table/view they contain rather than getting a sequence number).
'show create' works even on views that are short of a base-table (this
throw a warning though, like you would expect). Unfortunately, this is
not what mysqldump uses; it creates stand-in tables and hence requests
'show fields' on the view which fails with missing base-tables. The
--force option prevents the dump from stopping at this point; furthermore
this patch dumps a comment showing create for the offending view for
better diagnostics. This solution was confirmed by submitter as solving
their/clients' problem. Problem might become non-issue once mysqldump no
longer creates stand-in tables.
The problem happened because "mysql" didn't send mysql_select_db() if
the current active database was specified in USE.
Now it always send mysql_select_db().
Rebuilding of completion hash is skipped in the same db is used
(for performance purposes).
Correct a bug (that I introduced, after using Oracle's database software for
too many years) where the length of the database-sent data is incorrectly
used to infer NULLness.
