Hi!

InnoDB is a MySQL table type which adds transactions, row level locking, and
foreign key constraints to MySQL.

InnoDB is included in the MySQL-Max-3.23, MySQL-4.0, and MySQL-Max-4.0
distributions of MySQL. These can be downloaded from http://www.mysql.com.
For more information about InnoDB see the online refererence manual at
http://www.innodb.com.

MySQL AB decided to release 3.23.49 so quickly after .48 because the Linux
binary of .48 was linked against a wrong glibc, and it did not work properly
in some computers.

There are the following bug fixes in InnoDB:

* Fixed a bug: if you called DROP DATABASE for a database on which there
simultaneously were running queries, the MySQL server could crash or hang.
Crashes fixed, but a full fix has to wait some changes in the MySQL layer of
code.

* Fixed a bug: on Windows one had to put the database name in lower case for
DROP DATABASE to work. Fixed in 3.23.49: case no longer matters on Windows.
On Unix the database name remains case-sensitive.

* Fixed a bug: if one defined a non-latin1 character set as the default
character set, then definition of foreign key constraints could fail in an
assertion failure in dict0crea.c, reporting an internal error 17.

In the MySQL part of code the changelog is the following:

http://www.mysql.com/doc/N/e/News-3.23.49.html :

* Don't give warning for statement that is only a comment; This is needed
for mysqldump --disable-keys to work.

* Fixed unlikely caching bug when doing a join without keys. In this case
the last used field for a table always returned NULL.

* Added options to make LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE more secure.

* MySQL binary release 3.23.48 for Linux contained a new glibc library,
which has serious problems under high load and RedHat 7.2. The 3.23.49
binary release doesn't have this problem.
