Re: GUID storage

2004-06-28 Thread Ray Kiddy
Nowhere in this discussion was this question. Is it in the plans to have a 128 bit numeric column type for MySQL? If so, in what kind of time frame? If not, why not? Character arrays are obviously, but they are probably not the best way to get optimal performance. Native support for a 128 bit

no create/update time for InnoDB from SHOW TABLE STATUS?

2004-03-18 Thread Ray Kiddy
It looks as though, when I go into my databases, and use the command SHOW TABLE STATUS, that InnoDB tables do not have some information. I am on MySQL 4.1.0-alpha-debug. Has this been fixed in later versions? Example: mysql show table status;

additions to mysqlimport?

Hello - I am curious what extensions to mysqlimport people might be interested in seeing. I am importing some data with inconsistencies and and I find that mysqlimport helps one not at all. It seems to me that there are things it could do. For example: -rejected_lines=filename : would put

Re: MySQL 4.0.7 is released

2002-12-29 Thread Ray Kiddy
What does it mean when you say: MySQL 4.0.7 is released and then you give a URL? When one goes to the URL, one sees text which says the latest version is 4.0.5. So, is 4.0.7 released or is it not? If so, why do you not point to pages on the web site which actually include the release

read-only... even after myisamchk -ru

2002-12-22 Thread Ray Kiddy
I had used MySQL's myisampack utility to pack my tables, which makes them read-only, but now I want them to be write-able again. I have used myisamchk --recover --unpack (tried -ru as well) and the table is still read-only. What is the actual incantation one must use here? I can backup and

tools for characterizing performance?

2002-11-29 Thread Ray Kiddy

Can someone tell me what the holdup is in getting binaries built for Mac OS X? I notice on the www.mysql.com web page that the latest version of the binaries available of the is 4.0.3. Why is this? If somebody can point to the cause of the logjam, there might be something I can do about it.

[Bug] compile problem on Mac OS X 10.2

2002-09-06 Thread Ray Kiddy
A number of people have asked about this, and some have figured it out and posted info somewhere, but not in the www.mysql.com docs. Perhaps, I need to report it on this list for it to get into a distro, yes? In configure, there is a bit that starts at line 7514: *darwin*) if test

I got MySQL 4.0.2-alpha compiled on Mac OS X 10.2 (final version - Jaguar6C115). I am having problems with getting any client to connect to it, so perhaps I am doing something else wrong, which is possible since I am new to MySQL First I tried: ./configure
