CreateServiceA, OpenServiceA, and couple of other functions do not work
correctly with non-ASCII character, in the special case where application
has defined activeCodePage=UTF8.
Workaround by redefining affected ANSI functions to own wrapper, which
works by converting narrow(ANSI) to wide, then calling wide function.
Deprecate original ANSI service functions, via declspec, so that we can catch
their use.
The post-build custom command to embed Vista elevation manifest into
mariadb-upgrade-wizard.exe seems to do
something nasty to the executable, perhaps it removes and recreates it.
Thus the previously created hardlink mysql_upgrade_wizard is not marked
to require elevation.
Solved by using MANIFESTUAC linker flag, rather than invoke mt.exe.
This avoids an extra post-build step that modifies mariadb-upgrade-wizard.exe
To change all executables to have a mariadb name I had to:
- Do name changes in every CMakeLists.txt that produces executables
- CREATE_MARIADB_SYMLINK was removed and GET_SYMLINK added by Wlad to reuse the function in other places also
- The scripts/CMakeLists.txt could make use of GET_SYMLINK instead of introducing redundant code, but I thought I'll leave that for next release
- A lot of changes to debian/.install and debian/.links files due to swapping of real executable and symlink. I did not however change the name of the manpages, so the real name is still mysql there and mariadb are symlinks.
- The Windows part needed a change now when we made the executables mariadb -named. MSI (and ZIP) do not support symlinks and to not break backward compatibility we had to include mysql named binaries also. Done by Wlad
Changed the build to use /MD flag so that DDL version of C runtime is used.
To make sure MariaDB is always runnable on target system, include
redistributable CRT libraries into installer.
For MSI package, use Microsoft's merge modules.
For ZIP use "applocal" approach,i.e place redistributable dlls
into the bin directory of the package(via InstallRequiredSystemLibraries
cmake module) The space overhead of libraries in negligible, ~ 3MB unpacked.
There are 2 cases, where we still link C runtime statically
- Upgrade wizard, it uses MFC, and we link statically to avoid
redistribute also whole MFC (for this single application, does not
make much sense).
- MSI installer's custom action dll wixca.dll.Here, we need static link
so that MSI won't fail on a target system that does not have VC++2015
runtime already installed.
