Re: [Maria-developers] [Commits] Rev 3241: Xtradb recently started to access thd members directly , e.g thd->stmt_da (ha_innodb.cc) in file:///H:/bzr/5.5/

It would be much preferable if XtraDB didn't mess with server internals like this ...

Yes, I agree .

Would also be nice if MySQL exposed an API for what is available to a storage engine. It doesn't or doesn't put that in one place. The end result is: 1) storage engines don't reuse anything and waste time reimplementing things 2) storage engines reuse things they shouldn't -- Mark Callaghan mdcallag@gmail.com
