- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
(Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code
Changed defaults option --instance to --defaults-group-suffix
Changed option handling to allow --defaults-file, --defaults-extra-file and --defaults-group-suffix to be given in any order
Changed MYSQL_INSTANCE to MYSQL_GROUP_SUFFIX
mysql_print_defaults now understands --defaults-group-suffix
Remove usage of my_tempnam() (not safe function)
if( -> if ( and while( to while (
Added push_back(void *, MEM_ROOT *) to make some list-handling code easier that needs to be allocated in a different mem-root
(Before one had to change thd->mem_root ; push_back(); restore mem_root.
Mostly needed for Monty for him getting notion what needed for triggers
from new .FRM format.
Things to be done:
- Right placement of trigger's invocations
- Right handling of errors in triggers (including transaction rollback)
- Support for priviliges
- Right handling of DROP/RENAME table (hope that it will be handled automatically
with merging of .TRG into .FRM file)
- Saving/restoring some information critical for trigger creation and replication
with their definitions (e.g. sql_mode, creator, ...)
- Replication
Already has some known bugs so probably not for general review.
