- Using DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY option on Windows put data/index file into
default directory because the OS doesn't support readlink().
- The procedure for changing data/index file directory is
different under Windows.
- With this fix we report a warning if DATA/INDEX option is used,
but OS doesn't support readlink().
- When a shared library argument is supplied, it's checked for an OS
specific directory separator. The expected error is different
depending on the separator used. Create OS specific versions of these
tests.
- When an ALTER TABLE RENAME is performed on windows, the files are closed and their cached file
descriptors are marked invalid. Performing INSERT, UPDATE or SELECT on the associated merge
table causes a server crash on windows. This patch adds a test for bad file descriptors when a
table attempts a lock. If a bad descriptor is found an error is thrown. An additional FLUSH TABLES
will be necessary to further operate on the associated merge table.
