"resolveip" program produces incorrect result if given a hostname
starting with a digit. Someone seems to have thought that names
can not have digits at the beginning.
Instead, use the resolver library to work out the rules of hostnames,
as it will undoubtedly be better at it than we are.
Better Windows support in the scripts directory
mysql_config.pl.in, mysql_install_db.pl.in:
New Perl version of Unix shell script, mainly for Windows
Many files in scripts directory:
Use default Perl location "#!/usr/bin/perl" instead of the build host path
- when we don't have in_addr_t, use uint32.
- a forgotten initialization of slave_proxy_id in sql/log_event.cc (was not really "forgot", was
"we needn't init it there", but there was one case where we needed...).
- made slave_proxy_id always meaningful in THD and Log_event, so we can
rely more on it (no need to test if it's meaningful). THD::slave_proxy_id
is equal to THD::thread_id except for the slave SQL thread.
- clean up the slave's temporary table (i.e. free their memory) when slave
server shuts down.
Add pack_bits to pack_reclength for dynamic rows. This solves buffer a possible buffer overflow on update.
(This will probably solve bug #563)
Fix test for available file descriptors in mysqltest
Fixed core dump bug in replication tests when running without transactional table support
Call pthread_mutex_destroy() on not used mutex.
Changed comments in .h and .c files from // -> /* */
Added detection of mutex on which one didn't call pthread_mutex_destroy()
Fixed bug in create_tmp_field() which causes a memory overrun in queries that uses "ORDER BY constant_expression"
Added optimisation for ORDER BY NULL
of an error in option handling. This can sometimes be useful in
scripts.
Changed some exit code names and corresponding numbers.
Fixed a bug in mysqld.cc, in replication related options.
Added a global flag in my_getopt, which can be set by any program
that is using my_getopt, which tells whether the client should
print the error message itself, or whether my_getopt should do it.
The default is that my_getopt will print the error messages.
This wrapper noew will include all the necessary, system specific files,
which makes all normal source files much easier to write and maintain.
Portability fixes.
