Windows to call CreateFileMapping() with correct arguments, and
propogating the introduction of query_id_t to everywhere query ids are
passed around. (Bug #8826)
This is the first changeset of suggested changes recommended in Kostja's
review of my patch, 1.1846, which includes only functionality changes.
Style changes/Documentation patch to follow.
reset mysql->net.last_error": the solution is to clear
MYSQL->net error before performing COM_CLOSE: if the call
succeeds, the connection is usable for other statements.
More comprehensive fix is to clear MYSQL->net for all
recoverable errors at the time they happen, it will be
implemented in 5.0 as it introduces incompatibility in behavior.
- renamed the tests that use the embedded server (client_test ->
mysql_client_test_embedded, mysqltest -> mysql_test_embedded
and changed some Makefiles and scripts so they are installed in $bindir
(required to be able to run the test suite against the embedded server)
Changed my_error() to print error messages, which come from
arbitrary registered ranges of error messages. Messages can
be unregistered (and should be at end of the program).
Added registration of handler error messages.
Added a new mi_print_error() macro and a new
mi_report_error() function, which supply error
messages with a table name.
Added calls to mi_print_error() or mi_report_error()
at all places in MyISAM, where table corruption is detected.
All our programs which use mysql_real_connect() and mysql_connect() are updated accordingly, though I have deliberately
made mysqlimport not reconnect anymore (already true for mysqldump >= 4.1.8).
All Connector devs have been warned about the change I'm doing here - which was agreed with Monty,
and fixes BUG#2555.
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
