Hi Arjen,

Yes. The InnoDB API has some similarities to what we are proposing.

I basically just has transactions, savepoints and cursors. Locking is done on the cursors.

Although the API is simple and understandable, and we should keep it in mind when specifying the Drizzle API.

We will know we are doing well with the engine API if we are able to implement (actually or theoretically) InnoDB access using the embedded API in a few lines of code.

Hi Paul,

Engine API wise, have you looked at the API exposed by the embedded InnoDB library that Oracle released some time ago? I heard some good things about it, so perhaps it's usable and it might make things easier since various MySQL-engine people are also looking at this. Perhaps MariaDB will pick it up... anyway it's a possibility.


Cheers,
Arjen.
