The table opening process now works the following way: - Create common TABLE_SHARE object - Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object - Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE object and open a handler to the table object Other noteworthy changes: - In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's - Better error message when table is not found - Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache' - New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached - strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows - strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result - engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object. - After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it - For a busy system this change will give you: - Less memory usage for table object - Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache) - Allow you to cache many table definitions objects - Faster drop of table
This directory contains a test suite for mysql daemon. To run the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it. If you want to run a test with a running MySQL server use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode the test suite expects user to specify test names to run. Otherwise it falls back to the normal "non-extern" behaviour. The reason is that some tests could not run with external server. Here is the sample command to test "alias" and "analyze" tests on external server: mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze To match your setup you might also need to provide --socket, --user and other relevant options. Note that you do not have to have to do make install, and you could actually have a co-existing MySQL installation - the tests will not conflict with it. All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please read the following manual section of how to report the problem: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/MySQL_test_suite.html You can create your own test cases. To create a test case: xemacs t/test_case_name.test in the file, put a set of SQL commands that will create some tables, load test data, run some queries to manipulate it. We would appreciate if the test tables were called t1, t2, t3 ... (to not conflict too much with existing tables). Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and end by dropping them again. This will ensure that one can run the test over and over again. If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your test case you should do create the result file as follows: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name or mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test If you only have a simple test cases consistent of SQL commands and comments you can create the test case one of the following ways: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result - If the result is wrong, you have found a bug; In this case you should edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify that the bug is corrected in future releases. To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail to bugs@lists.mysql.com
