Changed my_error() to print error messages, which come from
arbitrary registered ranges of error messages. Messages can
be unregistered (and should be at end of the program).
Added registration of handler error messages.
Added a new mi_print_error() macro and a new
mi_report_error() function, which supply error
messages with a table name.
Added calls to mi_print_error() or mi_report_error()
at all places in MyISAM, where table corruption is detected.
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
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.
Added key cache parameters for midpoint insertion strategy
Many files:
Added midpoint insertion strategy for key cache
mi_test2.c:
Added a parameter to resize_key_cache
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
Fixes for embedded server
Made key_cache more configurable
Fixed that one can change key blocksize in MyISAM
A lot of optimizations to make MyISAM slightly faster
