Hi guys,
As I work through the Coverity Scan results of MariaDB's trunk, I find myself having to research what some functions do, and the meanings of their parameters and return values. Rather than just recording what I learn on a piece of paper, I thought it might be nice to write Doxygen comments for some of those functions / structs / etc. That way, perhaps other persons trying to learn the code base could benefit.
Here's the problem. Based on Monty's blog posting about MariaDB 10 vs. MySQL 5.6 ( http://blog.mariadb.org/mariadb-10-0-and-mysql-5-6/ ), it's not obvious to me which files / functions / etc. in MariaDB have been forked from MariaDB, vs. which ones will be replaced with the corresponding MySQL code when the next MySQL release comes out. This means that when I write Doxygen comments for a given file / function /struct / etc., I don't know whether to submit that comment patch to the MariaDB project or to the MySQL project.
Does anyone know I I can figure that out?
Are you looking at 10.0? Feel free to send everything to us. Regards, Sergei
