Add syntax SAVEPOINT id and ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT id. This is compatible with DB2 and Oracle but not with SQL Server. Savepoints do not do anything yet, this is just parsing.
Added ALL as parameter option for all group functions.
Make join handling uniform. This allows us to use ',', JOIN and INNER JOIN the same way.
Sort NULL last if DESC is used (ANSI SQL 99 requirement)
Fixed comparision of log-binary name to handle comparison when file name extension wraps from .999 to .1000
Don't replicate CREATE/DROP DATABASE if wild_xxx_table=database.% is used.
Free row buffer cache after each query for MyISAM tables.
Added table join option FORCE INDEX
Fixed core dump bug when connecting with hostname that could not be resolved.
Add support for LIMIT # OFFSET #
Changed lock handling: Now all locks should be stored in TABLE_LIST instead of passed to functions.
Don't call query_cache_invalidate() twice in some cases
mysql_change_user() now clears states to be equal to close + connect.
Fixed a bug with multi-table-update and multi-table-delete when used with LOCK TABLES
Fixed a bug with replicate-do and UPDATE
Fixed that GRANT ... REQUIRE options are not forgot when doing new GRANT
Changed fn_ext to point at first '.' after directory.
FLUSH LOGS removed numerical extension for all future update logs.
Fixed the mysqld --help reports right values for --datadir and --bind-address
--log-binary=a.b.c now properly strips of .b.c
Fix that one can DROP UDF functions that was not loaded at startup
Made AND optional in REQUIRE
Added REQUIRE NONE
Changed name of variables
NO_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS -> FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS
RELAXED_UNIQUE_CHECKS -> UNIQUE_CHECKS
to avoid confusion with 'not...' variables.
Write name of adminstrator command to slow log.
Added mysqldumpslow to RPM
Made a some new buffers thread specific and changeable.
Resize of key_buffer.
AUTO_COMMIT -> AUTOCOMMIT
Fixed mutex bug in DROP DATABASE
Fixed bug when using auto_increment as second part of a key where first part could include NULL.
Split handler->extra() to extra() and extra_opt() to be able to support thread specific buffers.
Don't write message to error log when slave reconnects becasue of timeout.
Fixed possible update problem when using DELETE/UPDATE on small tables
(In some cases we used index even if table scanning would be better)
A lot of minior code cleanups
Portability fixes for HPUX
Rename of CHECK_LOCK to IS_FREE_LOCK
Apply lower_case_table_names also to databases
Cleanup of describe code
Don't allow \ in database names
SHOW DATABASES
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE
LOCK TABLES
REPLICATION SLAVE & REPLICATION CLIENT
SUPER
EXECUTE
All scripts & documentation is updated for this change.
Added better error messages for global privileges
first pull, merge,test, and get it to work.
The main change is the new replication code - now we have two slave threads
SQL thread and I/O thread. I have also re-written a lot of the code to
prepare for multi-master implementation.
I also documented IO_CACHE quite extensively and to some extend, THD class.
Fixes for building MySQL with gcc 3.0
Added SIGNED / UNSIGNED casts
Fixed core dump bug in net_clear() with libmysqld.
Back to using semaphores in query cache.
Added 'Null' and 'Index_type' to SHOW INDEX.
One more notice:
limiting number of queries per hour for different users has been done
on 4.0.1 , but I can port it to 3.23.*
This will require only certain changes, like number of columns in user
table.
I will also make a test case for it, after it is approved by Monty,
as result file will depend on the error message text.
* multi-table updates
* new paid feature for limiting number of queries per hour for users
* optional syntax for multi-table deletes
* optimization for SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS
* a small addition for CREATE .. SELECT that will be of future use
I know that all this will require many additions to documentation,
which I have not done, but I am at Arjen's disposal to help him document
all this.
