Hi Sergei, we have 2 "exec perl" and many pipes. Not much, so I can change as you suggest. Thanks, Sergey On Thu, Nov 26, 2015 at 10:32:52AM +0100, Sergei Golubchik wrote:

MDEV-7780 - Support for faking server version

Added --version=str (optional argument sets server version string).

diff --git a/mysql-test/suite/sys_vars/t/version.test b/mysql-test/suite/sys_vars/t/version.test new file mode 100644 index 0000000..08eae97 --- /dev/null +++ b/mysql-test/suite/sys_vars/t/version.test @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +SELECT @@version; +--exec $MYSQL -e "status" | perl -ne "print \$_ if /^Server version/"

Is that portable enough? Do we have other tests that do that? Normally for perl you should use 'perl' command of mysqltest. Like

perl; print grep /Server version/, `$ENV{MYSQL} -e status` EOF
