Added the get_actual_table_name function that issues a SHOW TABLES LIKE '%s'. This will get the table
name in the proper case. We use this table name rather than the one given on the command line. This will
prevent problems when importing SQL on Linux that was generated on a Windows platform where case can be
an issue.
mysqldump.c:
call get_actual_table_name to get the table name in the proper case
(back to behaviour of 4.1.7). Warning was not fatal: mysqldump continued. And the good thing is that it helped spot that starting from 4.1.7,
SHOW CREATE DATABASE failed (if --single-transaction and first db has non-empty InnoDB table and there is a second db) and thus mysqldump
produced CREATE DATABASE statements missing the CHARACTER SET clause. Removing the bug which was in the server, and the warning reporting in
mysqldump (compatibility with old servers).
clause the the SELECT statement used to dump the data
for any table which has a primary or unique key. This
is useful for dumping MyISAM tables which will be later
imported into InnoDB tables.
binlog coordinates corresponding to the dump".
The good news is that now mysqldump can be used to get an online backup of InnoDB *which works for
point-in-time recovery and replication slave creation*. Formerly, mysqldump --master-data --single-transaction
used to call in fact mysqldump --master-data, so the dump was not an online dump (took big lock all time of dump).
The only lock which is now taken in this patch is at the beginning of the dump: mysqldump does:
FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK; START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT; SHOW MASTER STATUS; UNLOCK TABLES;
so the lock time is in fact the time FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK takes to return (can be 0 or very long, if
a table is undergoing a huge update).
I have done some more minor changes listed in the paragraph of mysqldump.c.
WL#2237 "WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT clause for START TRANSACTION":
it's a START TRANSACTION which additionally starts a consistent read on all
capable storage engine (i.e. InnoDB). So, can serve as a replacement for
BEGIN; SELECT * FROM some_innodb_table LIMIT 1; which starts a consistent read too.
Revise the --hex-blob help message string. (This will need
revising after merge to 4.1, too, but the CHAR BINARY and
VARCHAR BINARY data types will be BINARY and VARBINRY.)
- 'mysqldump --help' comment that --xeh-blob
doesn't work with --extended-inserts was removed.
It does work now. Thanks to Lachlan
who noticed this wrong help message.
- Switched to use the recently introduced
mysql_hex_string() instead of slow sprintf().
Thanks to Sinisa for the idea.
- 'mysqldump --hex-blob' dumps in HEX not only
BLOBs but also BINARY(x) columns.
Thanks to Paul.
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.
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)
