to the autotools option mysql-maintainer-mode. This option is
intended to set a few flags that should be activated by anyone
doing MySQL development, regardless of the build type. Also, the
flags are only set by the very end of the platform checks as
to not disturb fragile checks.
autotools runs
- Fix recognition of --with-debug=full in configure wrapper
- Remove CMakeCache.txt in configure wrapper, to match the original
- Fix recognition of max-no-ndb
- Fix broken dependencies of mysql_fix_privilege_table.sql from
mysql_system_tables.sql and mysql_system_tables_fix.sql
- Add "distclean target" that informs user about appropriate bzr command
The bug was that ./configure was passing paramers to subscripts as $@, and to handle embedded spaces it needs
to be quoted as "$@".
This resulting into a bug when ./configure was called e.g with CFLAGS='-m64 -Xstrconst'..
Additionally, fixed cmake/configure.pl did not handle environment variables passed on the command line.
this is fixed in this push
Fix contains of :
- splitting CC/CXX if there are more that 2 space-delimited tokens, add the rest to CFLAGS
(in this case CC was set to "ccache gcc --pipe", and this broke recognition of gcc compiler
as CMake understands CC consisting of 2 space delimited tokens but not more)
- add my_new.cc to mysys fle list if C++ operator new is not found. Always, not only
for gcc (the original problem was that missing operator new when compiling with CXX=gcc)
using cmake option INSTALL_LAYOUT=STANDALONE would produce the layout as in
tar.gz or zip packages.
INSTALL_LAYOUT=UNIX will produce unixish install layout (with mysqld being in sbin subdirectory , libs in lib/mysql etc). This layout is used for RPM packages.
Subtle differences in both packages unfortunately lead to the need to recompile MySQL to use with other package type - as otherwise for example default plugins or data directories would be wrong set.
There are numerous other variables that allow fine-tuning packaging layout. (INSTALL_BINDIR, INSTALL_LIBDIR , INSTALL_PLUGINDIR etc).
This options are different from autotools as they do not expect full paths to directories, but only subdirectory of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
There are 2 special options that expect full directory paths
- MYSQL_DATADIR that defines default MYSQL data directory (autotools equivalent
is --localstatedir)
- SYSCONFDIR can be added to search my.cnf search path (autotools equivalent is --sysconfdir)
