Hi! ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: mailing.database.mysql Sent: Friday, April 05, 2002 8:51 PM Subject: MySQL Book
> We are writing a book about MySQL. There will be emphasis on using MySQL with perl/php, .net & java. The publisher needs lots of emphasis on SPs and nested subqueries. We need to be able to write about implementing biz rules using table constraints, which means FKs. Your site says 4.1 is to have support for nested subQs, SPs and FKs with an alpha in "early 2002", which is now but 4.0 is still alpha! > > 1. When can we have a 4.1 supporting nested subqueries, SPs & FKs? InnoDB type tables support foreign keys already in MySQL-3.23. See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html#InnoDB_foreign_keys and http://www.innodb.com/todo.html. The current source tree of 4.1 already does some SQL subqueries. An inofficial timetable for stored procedures is 1 year. > 2. What would be a good way for us to be in your devel/test loop? Simply download new versions from www.mysql.com, and test the features mentioned in the changelog in the manuals at http://www.mysql.com/doc/N/e/News-4.0.x.html and http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html#InnoDB_history. > Peter Brawley > Arthur Fuller Best regards, Heikki Tuuri Innobase Oy --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
