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
Rename innodb_table_locks_old_behavior -> innodb_table_locks
Set innodb_table_locks to off by default to get same behaviour as in MySQL 4.0.20
(This means that Innodb ignore table locks by default, which makes it easier to combine MyISAM and InnoDB to simulate a transaction)
Simple optimzations and cleanups
Removed compiler warnings and fixed portability issues
Added client functions 'mysql_embedded()' to allow client to check if we are using embedded server
Fixes for purify
Changed the semantics of open_count so that it is decremented
at every unlock (if it was incremented due to data changes).
So it indicates a crash, if it is non-zero after a lock.
The table will then be repaired.
This bug is the result of weird error happening with mi_float8get and double
arythmetic. I described that in 'Bug that looks potentially dangerous' email
used in the handle_options() function (instead of using additional
handle_option() parameter). The default value of the
my_getopt_error_reporter is default_reporter(). One can set it to
other functions if case of need.
Fix for binary collations for MyISAM and HEAP BTREE.
This patch also changes trailing spaces behaviour for
binary collations. Binary collations now have PAD
characteristic too.
Added declarations for print_msg_to_log and vprint_msg_to_log. sql_print_error are simple functions that wrap calls to print_msg_to_log. Define the different error types with MY_ERROR_TYPE, MY_WARNING_TYPE, and MY_INFORMATION_TYPE
gen_lex_hash.cc:
Added NULL error reporting parameter to handle_options
log.cc:
Add print_msg_to_log, print_buffer_to_log, and vprint_msg_to_log. Print_msg_to_log will write the message to the windows event log if on NT. We now have error, warning, and information versions of sql_print_xxxx. T his is a variation of a similar changeset WAX did.
mysqld.cc:
Added option_error_reporter callback function and pass that into handle_options
mysql.cc:
Added NULL as error reporter arg to the end of handle_options
Many files:
Added NULL error reporter parameter as the last paramter to handle_options
my_getopt.c:
Added second function pointer to server as an error reporting callback. Added local function report_option_error that will either write the error to stderr or to the error reporting callback. changed all calls in handle_options from fprintf(stderr, ... ) to report_option_error
my_getopt.h:
Changed declaration of handle_options to use typedefs for the two function pointers. added second function pointer to server as an error reporting callback
mysqld.dsp:
Added custom build step for compiling message file and added message resource file (output of mc)
required autotools macro written and deployed in all apropriate Makefile.ams.
Use cases checked:
- linux, standard location of zlib, no ndb
- linux, standard locatoin of zlib, with ndb
- linux, non-standard location of zlib, no ndb
- hpux11, use of bundled zlib, no ndb
The only non-checked case is non-standard location of zlib (or use of bundled
zlib) + ndb. I wasn't able to check it as ndb/ just won't compile on beasts
like AIX52 or HPUX11, where such a check is possible. It didn't compile
there before as these systems dont't have installed zlib, so nothing got broken ;)
