Hi Sriram. I read your CREATE OR REPLACE DATABASE code and have some comments: 1) I noticed that you directly mysql_rm_db the database before creating it. Please ask your mentor if it would be better to rename it, obtain a successful create status, then delete the old db. Currently, if the disk is full, you could lose the original db and also the new one. 2) mysql_rm_db has a side-effect of USE nothing; if the db name matches the current db. You may want to do mysql_change_db_impl() after the create logic to undo that. 3) This code impacts binary logging/replication, so you need to test that as well. 4) Old comments refer to automatic DDL locking. You should trace how that works (or not) with your code. For example, are you 100% sure another thread cannot create "db" after the mysql_rm_db call? " These DDL methods and logging are protected with the exclusive metadata lock on the schema." Verify? 5) I like your blog effort. Can you add links to github files so it's easier for reviewers to navigate? Thanks, James. -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 6/1/14, sriram patil <spsrirampatil@gmail.com> wrote: Subject: [Maria-developers] [GSoC] First two weeks into coding!
