[Gambas-devel] MySQL component (4.1 changes)

[nigel at ...2...]

Benoit,

Attached is a patch file for the mysql component; it adds the new system tables added by MySQL 4.1.  No rocket science here :-)

Here is a warning :
Due to a bug in the 4.1.8 and 4.1.9 MySQL releases where the API mysql_character_set_name() gives back the collation sequence rather than the character set, the database-manager will crash where character conversion is attempted during the update of a field.  The change at the the mysql end is simple in that the mysql file libmysql.c needs to be altered before being compiled, so that csname is returned instead of name.  Hopefully, the guys that release MySQL will soon have this resolved (it was reported in 4.1.8 so should have been ok in 4.1.9 but my check shows that it is not).

regards

Nigel
