The question is whether you can compile your own client(s) with this option. In other words 'add to the list'. I am not a coder so I do not understand the full details of the document. I just do not find a clear statement in plain words (not code) that a client may be built with this option in addition to the 2 that ship with MariaDB 5.3 and what the requirements are. BTW: *Webyog* is NOT a *client*. It is a *company. Clients *are *SQLyog* and *MONyog* (and the latter is actually also a *server* at the same time! :-) Peter On Thu, Jun 30, 2011 at 15:46, Sergei Golubchik <serg@askmonty.org> wrote:
Hi, Peter!
I did already. And it reads
Clients that supports progress reporting: * The mysql command line client, starting from version 15.0 (comes with MariaDB 5.3). * mytop which comes with MariaDB 5.3 has a '%' column that shows the progress.
It does not list the C-API. maybe you should add "Clients compiled with
C-API as shipped with MariaDB 5.3+ provided that ... ". It it not all

the command line supports that is suppored in API (examples: \G-delimiter and SOURCE statement for instance) so listing CLI does not necessary.
I'm not sure I understand. To show progress report information, a *client* needs to support it - not just the *API*. From all the clients, only mysql command line client and mytop support this at the moment. And the page says it.
C-API itself is not a "client", as far as I can see it, it's an API. For example, Webyog is a client.

I understand that this is implemented in the command line client, but what about the C-API (and what other connectors you may distribute)?
I think I misunderstood your question. I'm sorry.
You mean "whether C-API supports progress reporting" - and the answer is "yes, absolutely".
But originally I thought you were asking "what is the C-API or this feature, how one can add progress reporting support to his MySQL client". And the answer was
because, indeed, the API is described there, in the Knowledge Base.
