- renamed the tests that use the embedded server (client_test ->
mysql_client_test_embedded, mysqltest -> mysql_test_embedded
and changed some Makefiles and scripts so they are installed in $bindir
(required to be able to run the test suite against the embedded server)
All our programs which use mysql_real_connect() and mysql_connect() are updated accordingly, though I have deliberately
made mysqlimport not reconnect anymore (already true for mysqldump >= 4.1.8).
All Connector devs have been warned about the change I'm doing here - which was agreed with Monty,
and fixes BUG#2555.
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
New mysqltest that can run mysqltest with PS
Added support for ZEROFILL in PS
Fixed crash when one called mysql_stmt_store_result() without a preceding mysql_stmt_bind_result()
Updated test cases to support --ps-protocol
(Some tests are still run using old protocol)
Fixed crash in PS when using SELECT * FROM t1 NATURAL JOIN t2...
Fixed crash in PS when using sub queries
Create table didn't signal when table was created. This could cause a "DROP TABLE created_table" in another thread to wait "forever"
Fixed wrong permissions check in PS and multi-table updates (one could get permission denied for legal quries)
Fix for PS and SELECT ... PROCEDURE
Reset all warnings when executing a new PS query
group_concat(...ORDER BY) didn't work with PS
Fixed problem with test suite when not using innodb
Putting initialization into .cc will reduce compiler's abilities
to optimize this constant away.
Defines are not OK as they bloat global namespace.
Looking for a way to declare an efficient named constant in reduced
namespace (i. e. in a class).
Let's try enums: normally they should be implicitly casted to int.
Let's see if we really have a compiler which won't do that.
This was a customer request for to get the XP Logo Certification.
Note for LenZ:
Adding to the project libmysqld.dsp the file libmysqld.rc at compilation time will be created
the libmysqld.res and this linked. For every release edit the libmysqld.rc
version number.
