Added support for key_block_size to MyISAM.
Simplify interface to 'new Key' to make it easier to add new key options.
mysqld option --new is used to define where key options are printed.
(In 5.3 we should move all key options to after key part definition to avoid problem with reserved names)
Fixed some compiler warnings and a memory leak in ssl
For "count(*) while index_column = value" an index read
is done. It consists of an index scan and retrieval of
each key.
For efficiency reasons the index scan stores the key in
the special buffer 'lastkey2' once only. At the first
iteration it notes this fact with the flag
HA_STATE_RNEXT_SAME in 'info->update'.
For efficiency reasons, the key retrieval for blobs
does not allocate a new buffer, but uses 'lastkey2'...
Now I clear the HA_STATE_RNEXT_SAME flag whenever the
buffer has been polluted. In this case, the index scan
copies the key value again (and sets the flag again).
Initialized usable_keys from table->keys_in_use instead of ~0
in test_if_skip_sort_order(). It was possible that a disabled
index was used for sorting.
myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size is depricated
Ensure that myisam_data_pointer_size is honoured when creating new MyISAM files
Changed default value of myisam_data_pointer_size from 4 to 6 to get rid of 'table-is-full' errors
Since 4.1 keys are compared with trailing spaces.
Thus, a "x " key can be inserted between a couple of "x" keys.
The existing code did not take this into account. Though the
comments in the code claimed it did.
Enabled VARCHAR testing for innodb
NOTE: innodb.test currently fails becasue of a bug in InnoDB.
I have informed Heikki about this and expect him to fix this ASAP
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
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
