mysql client displays wrong character-set of server. When a user changes the
charset of a server, mysql client 'status' command displays wrong charset but
the command "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "%charset%" displayed correct charset results.
The problem is only with the mysql client's 'status' command output.
In mysql client, the method mysql_store_lazy_result() returns 0 for
success and non-zero for failure. The method com_status() was using this method
wrongly. Fixed all such instances according to return value of the method
mysql_store_lazy_result().
Feature from Eric Bergen, CLA signed 2007-06-27.
Adds new mysql client option "--auto-vertical-output", which causes
the client to test whether a result table is too wide for the current
window (where available) and emit vertical results in that case.
Otherwise, it sends normal tabular results.
When starting the (5.1+) mysql command-line client, we try to get
"select @@version_comment" from the server to present it to the
user. Recent clients are aware that older servers do not have that
variable and fall back on other info to be able to present *something*
at least. This fallback string was allocated through the POSIX interface,
but released through the my*() suite, which rightfully complained about
the imbalance in calls when compiled with --debug. While this wasn't
as bad as it looked (no double-free, use of uninitialized or freed
buffer, etc.), it did look funky.
Using my_strdup() now for what will be my_free()d later.
If a thread is killed in the server, we throw "shutdown" only if one is actually in
progress; otherwise, we throw "query interrupted".
Control-C in the mysql command-line client is "incremental" now.
First Control-C sends KILL QUERY (when connected to 5.0+ server, otherwise, see next)
Next Control-C sends KILL CONNECTION
Next Control-C aborts client.
As the first two steps only pertain to an existing query,
Control-C will abort the client right away if no query is running.
client will give more detailed/consistent feedback on Control-C now.

with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
server
If the server connection was lost during repeated status commands,
the client would fail to detect this and the client output would be inconsistent.
This patch fixes this issue by making sure that the server is online
before the client attempts to execute the status command.
The problem: described in the bug report.
The fix:
--increase buffers where it's necessary
(buffers which are used in stxnmov)
--decrease buffer lengths which are used
memory issue ?
The mysql command line client could misinterpret some character
sequences as commands under some circumstances.
The upper limit for internal readline buffer was raised to 1 GB
(the same as for server's max_allowed_packet) so that any input
line is processed by add_line() as a whole rather than in
chunks.
When asking what database is selected, client expected
to *always* get an answer from the server.
We now handle failure more gracefully.
See comments in ticket for a discussion of what happens,
and how things interlock.
mysql-client used static buffer to concatenate server-
version and version_comment. Sufficiently long comments
could get cut off. This was harmless, but looked daft.
Now using a dynamic buffer instead.
