Backported only the softlink part of the patch,
*not* the bumping of library version.
With this patch, the libmysql/ directory contains:
libmysqlclient.a
libmysqlclient_r.a -> libmysqlclient.a
libmysqlclient_r.so -> libmysqlclient.so*
libmysqlclient_r.so.18 -> libmysqlclient.so.18*
libmysqlclient_r.so.18.0.0 -> libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0*
libmysqlclient.so -> libmysqlclient.so.18*
libmysqlclient.so.18 -> libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0*
libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0*
Backport version info handling (Windows-specific) from next-mr.
Instead of adding ".res" object as linker flag, add resource file (.rc) file to the source list.
This is more obvious and less error prone method.
mysqld-debug.exe in 5.5.3 on windows
Fix:
- Do not rename PDB, install mysqld.pdb matching
mysqld-debug.exe into bin\debug subdirectory
- Stack tracing code will now additionally look in
debug subdirectory of the application directory
for debug symbols.
- Small cleanup in stacktracing code: link with
dbghelp rather than load functions dynamically
at runtime, since dbghelp.dll is always present.
- Install debug binaries with WiX
