The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
don't fail w/o bdb (or innodb)
sql/sql_base.cc
typo fixed.
"mysql-test-run --ps-protocol select" fixed (item->cached_item was set to the last table if many matches)
FOUND is not a reserved keyword anymore
Added Item_field::set_no_const_sub() to be able to mark fields that can't be substituted
Added 'simple_select' method to be able to quickly determinate if a select_result is a normal SELECT
Note that the 5.0 tree is not yet up to date: Sanja will have to fix multi-update-locks for this merge to be complete
Note: The following tests fails
- fulltext (Sergei has promised to fix)
- rpl_charset (Guilhem should fix)
- rpl_timezone (Dimitray has promised to fix)
Sanja needs to check out the calling of close_thread_tables() in sp_head.cc
fixed IN subselect with basic constant left expression
SQLCOM_CREATE_TABLE, SQLCOM_UPDATE_MULTI, SQLCOM_REPLACE_SELECT, SQLCOM_INSERT_SELECT, QLCOM_DELETE_MULTI fixed to be compatible with PS (BUG#3398, BUG#3406)
fixed multiupdate privelege check (BUG#3408)
fixed multiupdate tables check (BUG#3411)
unchecked commands now is rejected by PS protocol to avoid serever crash
fixed cleunup procedure to be compatible sith DO/SET (BUG#3393)
Test case for a #2996 bug fix
multi_update.test:
test case for a #2996 bug fix
sql_select.cc:
Fix for a bug #2996 involving multi-table updates over the const tables
Cleaned up embedded library access and query cache handling
Changed min stack size to 128K (to allow longer MyISAM keys)
Fixed wrong priority for XOR (should be less than NEG to get -1^1 to work)
