The problem is that currently there is no way to test the behavior
of the mysql_change_user() function using the mysqltest suite because
there is no internal command for it.
The solution is to introduce a change_user command that can be used
to test aspects of the MySQL client function mysql_change_user().
The combination of --single-transaction and --master-data requires
START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT which is available from
mysqld 4.1 on. When trying this against an older server, print
diagnostic, then, if --force is not given, abort.
No test-case given since it would require a mysqld < 4.1.
insert_id after succ. mysql_change_user() call.

This bug reveals two problems:
- the problem on the client side which was described originally;
- the problem in protocol / the server side: connection context
on client and server should be like after mysql_real_connect()
and be consistent. The server however just resets character
set variables to the global defaults.
The fix seems to be as follows:
- extend the protocol so that the client be able to send
character set information in COM_CHANGE_USER command;
- change the server so that it understands client character set
in the command;
- change the client:
- reset character set to the default value (which has been
read from the configuration);
- send character set in COM_CHANGE_USER command.
make sure that if builder configured with a non-standard (!= 3306)
default TCP port that value actually gets used throughout. if they
didn't configure a value, assume "use a sensible default", which
will be read from /etc/services or, failing that, from the factory
default. That makes the order of preference
- command-line option
- my.cnf, where applicable
- $MYSQL_TCP_PORT environment variable
- /etc/services (unless configured --with-tcp-port)
- default port (--with-tcp-port=... or factory default)
UPGRADE)
Bug 17565 (RENAME DATABASE destroys events)
Bug#28360 (RENAME DATABASE destroys routines)
Removed the
RENAME DATABASE db1 TO db2
statement.
Implemented the
ALTER DATABASE db UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME
statement, which has the same function.
mysqldump --skip-events --all-databases dumped data of the mysqld.event table,
and during the restoration from this dump events were created in spite
of the --skip-events option.
The mysqldump client has been modified to ignore mysql.event table data
in case of --skip-events options.
When dumping database from a 4.x server, the mysqldump client
inserted a delimiter sign inside special commentaries of the form:
/*!... CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS ... ;*/
During restoration that dump file was splitten by delimiter signs on
the client side, and the rest of some commentary strings was prepended
to following statements.
The 4x_server_emul test case option has been added for use with the
DBUG_EXECUTE_IF debugging macro. This option affects debug server
builds only to emulate particular behavior of a 4.x server for
the mysqldump client testing. Non-debugging builds are not affected.
Problem:
In cases when a client-side macro appears inside a server-side comment, the add_line() function in mysql.cc discarded all characters until the next delimiter to remove macro arguments from the query string. This resulted in broken queries being sent to the server when the next delimiter character appeared past the comment's boundaries, because the comment closing sequence ('*/') was discarded.
Fix:
If a client-side macro appears inside a server-side comment, discard all characters in the comment after the macro (that is, until the end of the comment rather than the next delimiter).
This is a minimal fix to allow only simple cases used by the mysqlbinlog utility. Limitations that are worth documenting:
- Nested server-side and/or client-side comments are not supported by mysql.cc
- Using client-side macros in multi-line server-side comments is not supported
- All characters after a client-side macro in a server-side comment will be omitted from the query string (and thus, will not be sent to server).
