Upon further investigation, I discovered that it is already atomic, because Drizzle scraped the .frm files, and stored the table definition inside the database itself, which can therefore be "rolled back." I am not entirely sure if DDL statements actually work inside of a transaction without implicitly committing at the moment, but it should be within the realm of possibility if they don't. -- Darius Jahandarie _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
