Alterações na distribuição 4.0.3 (26 Aug 2002: Beta)

Fixed problem with types of user variables. (Bug#551)

• Fixed problem with configure ... --localstatedir=....
• Cleaned up mysql.server script.
• Fixed a bug in mysqladmin shutdown when pid file was modified while mysqladmin was still waiting for the previous one to disappear. This could happen during a very quick restart and caused mysqladmin to hang until shutdown_timeout seconds had passed.
• Don't increment warnings when setting AUTO_INCREMENT columns to NULL in LOAD DATA INFILE.
• Fixed all boolean type variables/options to work with the old syntax, for example, all of these work: --lower-case-table-names, --lower-case-table-names=1, -O lower-case-table-names=1, --set-variable=lower-case-table-names=1
• Fixed shutdown problem (SIGTERM signal handling) on Solaris. (Bug from 4.0.2).
• SHOW MASTER STATUS now returns an empty set if binary log is not enabled.
• SHOW SLAVE STATUS now returns an empty set if slave is not initialised.
• Don't update MyISAM index file on update if not strictly necessary.
• Fixed bug in SELECT DISTINCT ... FROM many_tables ORDER BY not-used-column.
• Fixed a bug with BIGINT values and quoted strings.
• Added QUOTE() function that performs SQL quoting to produce values that can be used as data values in queries.
• Changed variable DELAY_KEY_WRITE to an enum to allow one set DELAY_KEY_WRITE for all tables without taking down the server.
• Changed behaviour of IF(condition,column,NULL) so that it returns the value of the column type.
• Made safe_mysqld a symlink to mysqld_safe in binary distribution.
• Fixed security bug when having an empty database name in the user.db table.
• Fixed some problems with CREATE TABLE ... SELECT function().
• mysqld now has the option --temp-pool enabled by default as this gives better performance with some operating systems.
• Fixed problem with too many allocated alarms on slave when connecting to master many times (normally not a very critical error).
• Fixed hang in CHANGE MASTER TO if the slave thread died very quickly.
• Big cleanup in replication code (less logging, better error messages, etc..)
• If the --code-file option is specified, the server calls setrlimit() to set the maximum allowed core file size to unlimited, so core files can be generated.
• Fixed bug in query cache after temporary table creation.
• Added --count=N (-c) option to mysqladmin, to make the program do only N iterations. To be used with --sleep (-i). Useful in scripts.
• Fixed bug in multi-table UPDATE: when updating a table, do_select() became confused about reading records from a cache.
• Fixed bug in multi-table UPDATE when several fields were referenced from a single table
• Fixed bug in truncating nonexisting table.
• Fixed bug in REVOKE that caused user resources to be randomly set.
• Fixed bug in GRANT for the new CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE privilege.
• Fixed bug in multi-table DELETE when tables are re-ordered in the table initialisation method and ref_lengths are of different sizes.
• Fixed two bugs in SELECT DISTINCT with large tables.
• Fixed bug in query cache initialisation with very small query cache size.
• Allow DEFAULT with INSERT statement.
• The startup parameters myisam_max_sort_file_size and myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size are now given in bytes, not megabytes.
• External system locking of MyISAM/ISAM files is now turned off by default. One can turn this on with --external-locking. (For most users this is never needed).
• Fixed core dump bug with INSERT ... SET db_name.table_name.colname=''.
• Fixed client hangup bug when using some SQL commands with incorrect syntax.
• Fixed a timing bug in DROP DATABASE
• New SET [GLOBAL | SESSION] syntax to change thread-specific and global server variables at runtime.
• Added variable slave_compressed_protocol.
• Renamed variable query_cache_startup_type to query_cache_type, myisam_bulk_insert_tree_size to bulk_insert_buffer_size, record_buffer to read_buffer_size and record_rnd_buffer to read_rnd_buffer_size.
• Renamed some SQL variables, but old names will still work until 5.0. Leia "Atualizando da Versão 3.23 para 4.0".
• Renamed --skip-locking to --skip-external-locking.
• Removed unused variable query_buffer_size.
• Fixed a bug that made the pager option in the MariaDB client non-functional.
• Added full AUTO_INCREMENT support to MERGE tables.
• Extended LOG() function to accept an optional arbitrary base parameter. Leia "Funções Matematicas".
• Added LOG2() function (useful for finding out how many bits a number would require for storage).
• Added LN() natural logarithm function for compatibility with other databases. It is synonymous with LOG(X).
