Execution of platforms tests are slow/flaky when building on windows.
in PB:mysql-next-mr-opt-team on 2011-05-18 for win x86 debug_max, i see:
-- Looking for FIONREAD
-- Looking for FIONREAD - found
and the build fails.
When MySQL converted from autotools to CMake, the
preprocessor symbol USE_SYMDIR was omitted by mistake.
Without this symbol, the code for checking .sym files
is not built.
This patch defines USE_SYMDIR when built on MS Windows.
ABI changes (Bug#60061)
Bumping the version from 16 to 18, instead of 17, was done to avoid a
library conflict on Mac OS X between MySQL 5.1 and MySQL 5.5. In MySQL
5.1 GNU libtool was used, that made the ABI version used in the file
name to be 16, and the one stored inside the binary to be 17.
MySQL 5.5 uses CMake as a build tool, that will store the same ABI
number in the file name as inside the binary in Mac OS X, and then
bumping the ABI number two steps avoids a conflict on Mac OS X.
With this change, there will be new files "INFO_SRC"
and "INFO_BIN", which describe the source and the
binaries.
They will be contained in all packages:
- in "tar.gz" and derived packages, in "docs/",
- in RPMs, in "/usr/share/doc/packages/MySQL-server".
"INFO_SRC" is also part of a source tarball.
It gives the version as exact as possible, preferably
by calling "bzr version-info" on the source tree.
If that is not possible, it just contains the three
level version number.
"INFO_BIN" contains some info when and where the
binaries were built, the options given to the compiler,
and the flags controlling the included features.
The tests (test "mysql" in the main suite) are extended
to verify the existence of both "INFO_SRC" and "INFO_BIN",
as well as some of the expected contents.
option for specific compilers
Reorganize the maintainer mode cmake code to allow options
for specific compilers. For now, enable -Wcheck for ICC,
but do not turn warnings into errors.
Problem : The build might fail with
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../sql/z',
needed by `sql/mysqld_dtrace_all.o'. Stop.
if one of plugins would depends on system libz
library
Fix: Filter out non-static dependent libraries
when dtracing static libs
Remove some more leftovers from the initial removal:
o Update relevant mentions of configure.in throughout
the source code.
o Remove win/configure.js, which at this point just
duplicates logic already present in CMake based build
system.
o Remove support files which relied on the autotools
build system. In any case, MySQL is no longer officially
supported on SCO.
o Remove files which are no longer part of the build.
The autotools-based build system has been superseded and
is being removed in order to ease the maintenance burden on
developers tweaking and maintaining the build system.
In order to support tools that need to extract the server
version, a new file that (only) contains the server version,
called VERSION, is introduced. The file contents are human
and machine-readable. The format is:
MYSQL_VERSION_MAJOR=5
MYSQL_VERSION_MINOR=5
MYSQL_VERSION_PATCH=8
MYSQL_VERSION_EXTRA=-rc
The CMake based version extraction in cmake/mysql_version.cmake
is changed to extract the version from this file. The configure
to CMake wrapper is retained for backwards compatibility and to
support the BUILD/ scripts. Also, a new a makefile target
show-dist-name that prints the server version is introduced.
Bug : -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release sets SIGNCODE parameter which requires
singtool.exe (part of Windows SDK) in order to be able to sign the binaries (
only if valid certificate is found). However singtool is not a part of the SDK shipped
with Visual Studio Express, so the build fails claiming missing singtools.exe
Fix: Do not use SIGNCODE wiith VC Express.
Also, fix broken nmake build (*.rc files could not be compiled due to ADD_DEFINITIONS
contaning C/C++ compiler specific flags)
The reason for the bug is that :
- we use system checks in cmake/os/mysql_release.cmake
- we include cmake/os/mysql_release.cmake using CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE
- this (having system checks based on TRY_COMPILE inside file pointed by
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE does not work with cmake 2.8.3,
and according to Kitware was never meant to work, it just happened to work by accident
until 2.8.2 release (though, it seems not to work wiith 2.6.0 either)
Related CMake bug discussing the situation:
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11469
The fix is to use INCLUDE instead of CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE as suggested
by Kitware. The downside is that compile flags are not in cache, but this is pure cosmetics.
The functionality is the same, flags are used for compiling are correct using INCLUDE.
- Add ARG_LINK_LIBRARIES to MYSQLD_STATIC_PLUGIN_LIBS in
MYSQL_ADD_PLUGIN so that any libraries listed by the plugin is
added to libmysqld
- remove the variables NDB_CLIENT_LIBS and NDB_CLUSTER_INCLUDES
from libmysqld/CMakeLists.txt since those are just old remnants
Backport version info handling (Windows-specific) from next-mr.
Instead of adding ".res" object as linker flag, add resource file (.rc) file to the source list.
This is more obvious and less error prone method.
