On the windows platform, if an instance object failed to initialize during
program start, the instance manager would crash.
This could happen if an incorrect mysqld path was supplied in the
defaults configuration file.
The patch prevents the program from crashing and makes it show an
error message instead.
Alik's patch for BUG#22306: STOP INSTANCE can not be applied for
instances in Crashed, Failed and Abandoned" to ease review process.
Evaluate global variable linuxthreads before starting threads to avoid
a race.
- WL#3158: IM: Instance configuration extensions;
- WL#3159: IM: --bootstrap and --start-default-instance modes
The following new statements have been added:
- CREATE INSTANCE;
- DROP INSTANCE;
The behaviour of the following statements have been changed:
- SET;
- UNSET;
- FLUSH INSTANCES;
- SHOW INSTANCES;
- SHOW INSTANCE OPTIONS;
Fix the way that instance manager finds the version number of instances,
so that it works properly when the executable name isn't the same as what
the instance-manager launched, such as when wrapping a libtool-wrapped
executable from the source tree.
This removes the 'Ver ' reported in the version column output by
'SHOW INSTANCE STATUS ...', but the format of this column is not
documented (and is pretty free-form to begin with).
