TODO:
* verify that no sequence of API calls produces SIGSEGV.
That is, verify that mysql_stmt_init -> mysql_stmt_fetch is OK,
or mysql_stmt_prepare -> mysql_stmt_fetch_column is OK and sets
meaningful error.
* remove alloc_stmt_fields call
* revise stmt->state codes and statement states.
* there are other items in prepared statements 'to fix' document.
Done:
- cleanups and comments
- revision of prepared statement error codes.
- mysql_stmt_prepare is now can always be called (that is, you can reprepare
a statement)
- new implementation of mysql_stmt_close and fetch cancellation
sigsegv protection (exp overflow)
don't return inf!
use errno=EOVERFLOW to signal an overflow (as my_strntod uses errno anyway)
if errno will be too slow, my_strtod can be changed to return overflow status in a parameter (like my_strntod does)
This ensures that my_file_info takes this the max number of files into account and one can now use --open-files-limit on windows to increase number of used files up to 2048
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
Done clean-up in prep stmt API functions:
1) Removed some checks that were performed only in debug version
were making debug version more tolerable to user errors than
production (and thus caused problems for example masking some
bugs).
2) Also removed some other checks to make prep stmt API
consistent with the rest of C API (this also in line with
general politics - make checks in only those places where
errors are very common and hard to spot).
DROP DATABASE now assumes RAID directories are in hex. (Bug #2627)
Don't increment 'select_full_range' and similar statistics for EXPLAIN queries. (Bug #2506)
Test in configure if pthread_key_delete() exists (to fix compile problem on SCO) (Bug #2461)
when we open the HEAP table for the first time since server restart,
in hp_open(), we set a flag to propagate this info to the handler level
which then writes a DELETE FROM this_heap_table to the binlog.
It is not a perfect solution for the bug, because between the server start and
the first open of the table, the slave still had old data in his table so
a SELECT on the slave may show wrong content. But if there is a --init-file
to populate the HEAP table on master as startup, then this is a safe fix
(I'll put a note about init-file in the HEAP section of the manual).
- Fixed Bug#2346
- Fixed Bug#2378
- Fixed bug in pager (no Bug#ID (?))
- Added support for new special situations option type, GET_DISABLED.
See handling of --debug in mysql.cc. compiled wihtout debugging, as an
example.
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
Cleaned up embedded library access and query cache handling
Changed min stack size to 128K (to allow longer MyISAM keys)
Fixed wrong priority for XOR (should be less than NEG to get -1^1 to work)
now mysql_server_init is called from mysql_init with fake parameters
mysql_once_init code included to mysql_server_init.
embedded-specific initialization is in init_embedded_server function
Don't dump data for MRG_ISAM or MRG_MYISAM tables. (Bug #1846)
Ensure that 'lower_case_table_names' is always set on case insensitive file systems. (Bug #1812)
One can now configure MySQL as windows service as a normal user. (Bug #1802)
Database names is now compared with lower case in ON clause when lower_case_table_names is set. (Bug #1736)
IGNORE ... LINES option didn't work when used with fixed length rows. (Bug #1704)
Change INSERT DELAYED ... SELECT... to INSERT .... SELECT (Bug #1983)
Safety fix for service 'mysql start' (Bug #1815)
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
"SHOW TABLE STATUS very slow w/large number of tables"
Replaced old algorithm which were used in my_dir() and stored
all information about directory entries in one chunk of memory
with new one which stores file names and MY_STAT structures in
separate memroot, so now we don't need to copy this data during
reallocation of dir_entry array.
mysql_server_init() now returns error code if something went wrong (Bug #2062)
Don't use my_fopen() when reading symlink information as this may cause problems when a lot of files are opened.
Free thread keys with pthread_key_delete() instead of relying on automatic free. (Bug #2062)
Fixed bug in UNION statement with alias '*'. (Bug #1249)
Fixed a bug in DELETE ... ORDER BY ... LIMIT where the rows where not deleted in the proper order. (Bug #1024).
FOUND_ROWS() could return incorrect number of rows after a query with an impossible WHERE condition.
HOW DATABASES doesn't anymore show .sym files (on windows) that doesn't point to a valid directory. (Bug #1385)
SQL_BIG_RESULT used':
- BIT_AND now returns BIGINT UNSIGNED
- in case there were no matching rows BIT_AND returns 18446744073709551615
(but not NULL), BIT_OR returns 0 (but not NULL). That's how Monty wants it
and how is described in our docs.
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
Client option secure-auth deployed on all possible layers:
- mysql client command-line and config file option
- mysql_options option MYSQL_SECURE_AUTH
- mysql_real_connect will automatically take into account that option if
mysql->options.my_cnf_file/my_cnf_group is set
