WL#1034 (Internal CRON)
This patch adds INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS table with the following format:
EVENT_CATALOG - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (Always NULL)
EVENT_SCHEMA - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the database)
EVENT_NAME - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the name)
DEFINER - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (user@host)
EVENT_BODY - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (the body from mysql.event)
EVENT_TYPE - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING ("ONE TIME" | "RECURRING")
EXECUTE_AT - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (set for "ONE TIME" otherwise NULL)
INTERVAL_VALUE - MYSQL_TYPE_LONG (set for RECURRING otherwise NULL)
INTERVAL_FIELD - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (set for RECURRING otherwise NULL)
SQL_MODE - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (for now NULL)
STARTS - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (starts from mysql.event)
ENDS - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP (ends from mysql.event)
STATUS - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (ENABLED | DISABLED)
ON_COMPLETION - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING (NOT PRESERVE | PRESERVE)
CREATED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
LAST_ALTERED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
LAST_EXECUTED - MYSQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
EVENT_COMMENT - MYSQL_TYPE_STRING
SQL_MODE is NULL for now, because the value is still not stored in mysql.event .
Support will be added as a fix for another bug.
This patch also adds SHOW [FULL] EVENTS [FROM db] [LIKE pattern]
1. SHOW EVENTS shows always only the events on the same user,
because the PK of mysql.event is (definer, db, name) several
users may have event with the same name -> no information disclosure.
2. SHOW FULL EVENTS - shows the events (in the current db as SHOW EVENTS)
of all users. The user has to have PROCESS privilege, if not then
SHOW FULL EVENTS behave like SHOW EVENTS.
3. If [FROM db] is specified then this db is considered.
4. Event names can be filtered with LIKE pattern.
SHOW EVENTS returns table with the following columns, which are subset of
the data which is returned by SELECT * FROM I_S.EVENTS
Db
Name
Definer
Type
Execute at
Interval value
Interval field
Starts
Ends
Status
Before the interval expression was considered to be in seconds, now it is
just a number and the type of interval is considered.
- this changeset introduces also fix for bug#16432 (Events: error re interval
misrepresents the facts)
the code of event_timed::set_interval() was refactored anyway so it is meaningful to
fix the bug in the same changeset.
- fix one bug found by PeterG, namely bug #51
#there is a major problem currently after removing the specialised DYNAMIC_ARRAY as
storage for the events. I have to reintroduce similar storage, this time probably some
linked list or maybe some API on top of DYNAMIC_ARRAY.
QUEUE implementation working now. this should be ready more or less
for testing once the debug output is being cleaned and some things
around DYNAMIC_ARRAY are cleaned
- fix handling in case of errors that lead to crashes, now no more crashes
in case of table corruption and such.
- split into several files
- forbid parallel execution (before analyse is done how to make it possible)
because the same sp_head instance cannot be executed in parallel
- added GPL headers
- changed EVENT_ACL to be per DB variable
- fixed minor problems
