This small test starts an event that runs for 3 seconds, but drops the event after 1 second: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SET GLOBAL event_scheduler= OFF; CREATE TABLE t1(a INT); CREATE EVENT ev1 ON SCHEDULE EVERY 5 SECOND DO INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(SLEEP(3)); SET GLOBAL event_scheduler= ON; --sleep 1 SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST; SET GLOBAL event_scheduler= OFF; DROP EVENT ev1; SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST; --sleep 1 SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST; DROP TABLE t1; ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The already-started instance of the event happily continues to run after being dropped. I wonder if that's a bug, or if the documentation is wrong? And if it is a bug, if there are any use-after-free or similar memory issues with the event continuing to run after being dropped? Valgrind doesn't complain... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SET GLOBAL event_scheduler= OFF; CREATE TABLE t1(a INT); CREATE EVENT ev1 ON SCHEDULE EVERY 5 SECOND DO INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(SLEEP(3)); Warnings: Warning 1105 Event scheduler is switched off, use SET GLOBAL event_scheduler=ON to enable it.
