SPECIFIED WITH THE BASEDIR OPTION
Description: The mysql_plugin client attempts to remove any
filename specified to the --basedir option. The problem is
that if the filename does not end with a slash, it will
attempt to unlink it, which succeeds for files, but not for
directories.
Analysis: When we are starting mysql_plugin with basedir
option and if we are giving path of a file as basedir, it
deletes that file. It was because it uses a function
my_delete which unlinks the file path given.
Fix: As a fix we replace that line using another function
my_free, which will only free the pointer which is having
that file path.

This patch changes the mechanism by which the client enables a
plugin. Instead of using INSERT IGNORE to reload a plugin library,
it now uses REPLACE INTO. This allows users to load a library
multiple times replacing the existing values in the mysql.plugin
table. This allows users to replace the symbol reference to a
different dl name in the table. Thus permitting enabling of
multiple versions of the same library without first disabling
the old version.
A regression test was added to ensure this feature works.
This patch corrects a defect whereby the --mysqld, --my-print-defaults,
and --plugin-ini were required. These options are not required and the
code has been fixed accordingly.
This patch corrects a defect whereby the bootstrap_server() method was
returning 0 instead of the error code generated. The code has been changed to
return the correct value returned from the bootstrap command.
This patch corrects a defect in the building of the DELETE commands for
disabling a plugin whereby only the original plugin data was deleted. If there
were other plugins, the delete did not remove the rows. The code has been
changed to remove all rows from the mysql.plugin table that were inserted when
the plugin was loaded. The test has also been changed to correctly identify if
all rows have been deleted.
This patch corrects an error encountered in PB where Windows machines
are built in release mode have an extraneous parameter added in place
of the --console option. This is caused by the insert of '(null'
instead of an empty string. In non-debug mode, the string is explicitly
set to an empty string.
Patch also fixes a result mismatch on Windows machines.
This patch corrects an unsafe string concatenation for a Windows-specific
code segment. The symptoms were, under certain conditions like specifying
the location of my-print-defaults and the basedir, and run on a release
build, the client would exit without printing any messages.
