MDEV-5763 libmyodbc.so: undefined symbol: int2str
MDEV-5739 Symbol missing in libmysqlclient.so.18 (make_scrambled_password)
pam_mysql and especially myodbc need tons of internal symbols on Debian, argh!
An attempt to introduce libmysqlclient.so symbol versioning that is
compatible both with Debian and Fedora all versions: put all symbols into
libmysqlclient_18 version node (as on Debian), but also put aliases of
old symbols into libmysqlclient_16 version node (as on Fedora).
Also use a linker script to create aliases of exported symbols, not
rpm_support.cc source file.
This is port of fix for MySQL BUG#17647863.

Bug#17647863: MYSQL DOES NOT COMPILE ON OSX 10.9 GM
Rename test() macro to MY_TEST() to avoid conflict with libc++.
MDEV-4425 Regexp enhancements
Adding ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/pcre into search path for *.h files.
Needed for find pcre.h (which is generated from pcre.h.in) when
build directory != source directory.
includes:
* remove some remnants of "Bug#14521864: MYSQL 5.1 TO 5.5 BUGS PARTITIONING"
* introduce LOCK_share, now LOCK_ha_data is strictly for engines
* rea_create_table() always creates .par file (even in "frm-only" mode)
* fix a 5.6 bug, temp file leak on dummy ALTER TABLE
Cleanup: remove TIME_FUZZY_DATE.
Introduce TIME_FUZZY_DATES which means "very fuzzy, the resulting
value is only used for comparison. It can be invalid date, fine, as long as it can be
compared".
Updated many tests results (they're better now).
The reason is the limitation of ReadConsole() API, it returns error if handle to redirected input is used.
The fix is to use a handle returned by CreateFile("CONIN$",...), rather than GetStdHandle(STD_HANDLE_INPUT) to get the true console handle.
Prior to this patch, _getch() was used to read password input from console. getch() has a property that it reads Ctrl-C as character with ASCII code 0x03, and disregards Ctrl-C handler for current process.
The fix is to use ReadConsole() API instead of getch() , after setting console mode to ENABLE_PROCESSED_INPUT - this mode allows current process to handle Ctrl-C events.
to enable both recompiling mysqli or odbc from sources in addition to drop-in replacement functionality.
The case in question is compiling mysqli from sources, that needs client_errors via ER() macro.
Previously, we exported it as mysql_client_errors (compatibly to Fedora's style symbol renaming, see MDEV-3842).
However, if MariaDB header files are used when compiling mysqli, client_errors needs to be exported with its original name.
Miscellaneous workarounds for drop-in compatibility problems with Linux distributions, arounf versioning of the
MySQL 5.5 client shared library. There seems to be 3 different ways major distributions handle versioning
1. Fedora (also Mageia, and likely other Redhat descendants) way
old, 5.1 API functions are given version libmysqlclient_16
new API functions (client plugins, mysql_stmt_next ) are given version libmysqlclient_18
some extra functions beyond API are exported.
some functions are renamed.
2.Debian Wheezy way
all functions are given libmysqlclient_18 version
3. Ubuntu way (or MySQL/MariaDB download packages)
no versioning
UIp to this fix, MariaDB distributions did not have any versioning in the libraries, this rendered client library incompatible to distributions
thus exchanging distribution's libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0 with MariaDB's did not work nicely (anywhere but on Ubuntu)
THE FIX
is to build libraries the same way as distributions do it
- when building RPMs, use same version script as Fedora does, Make sure to export extra-symbols, the same as Fedora exports.
- when building DEBs, use the same version script as Debian Wheezy
- do not use version scripts otherwise
Also, makes sure that extensions of MySQL APIs (asynchronous client functionality) is exported by the shared libraries.
