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.
This commit is related to my previos one(ChangeSet 1.1583 03/08/27 18:03:39).
Note about COMMIT&ROLLBACK:
Only 'COMMIT' statement updates the binary log.
'ROLLBACK' statement doesn't update the binlog.
fix for BUG#1113 "INSERT into non-trans table SELECT ; ROLLBACK" does not send warning"
and
fix for BUG#873 "In transaction, INSERT to non-trans table is written too early to binlog".
Now we don't always write the non-trans update immediately to the binlog;
if there is something in the binlog cache we write it to the binlog cache
(because the non-trans update could depend on a trans table which was modified
earlier in the transaction); then in case of ROLLBACK, we write the binlog
cache to the binlog, wrapped with BEGIN/ROLLBACK.
This guarantees that the slave does the same updates.
For ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT: when we execute a SAVEPOINT command we write it
to the binlog cache. At ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT, if some non-trans table was updated,
we write ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT to the binlog cache; when the transaction
terminates (COMMIT/ROLLBACK), the binlog cache will be flushed to the binlog
(because of the non-trans update) so we'll have SAVEPOINT and ROLLBACK TO
SAVEPOINT in the binlog.
Apart from this rare case of updates of mixed table types in transaction, the
usual way is still clear the binlog cache at ROLLBACK, or chop it at
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT (meaning the SAVEPOINT command is also chopped, which
is fine).
Note that BUG#873 encompasses subbugs 1) and 2) of BUG#333 "3 binlogging bugs when doing INSERT with mixed InnoDB/MyISAM".
Merge InnoDB-4.0.14: SAVEPOINT now implemented; InnoDB now accepts also column prefix keys; crashing bug in ON UPDATE CASCADE fixed; page checksum formula fixed
If the autocommit is on, let handler.cc commit or rollback the whole transaction at an updating SQL statement end. This probably fixes bug number 578. The problem was that when explicit LOCK TABLES is used, then the lock count method in autocommit does not work.
Made keybuff_size longlong (To make show variables work similar on 32
and 64 bit systems)
Fixed some 'not initalized variable errors' in multi-table-update.
Fixed memory leak in multi-table-update.
Now all tests works under valgrind without any errors.
