'transactional' in Aria will eanable crash recovery for the table.  It will not make the table transactional (ie. START TRANSACTION, COMMIT, ROLLBACK etc.) are still ignored.  Probably it was originaly intended to have it trasactional over time but I do not think focus is there at the moment.

Byt yes .. it is just a checkbox and would be simple to add to any GUI (conditionally if engine = ARIA). But I think that if people want (user-)tables with the Aria engine you would use '1' in most if not all cases (temproary tables created by server internally is another thing).

Hi all,
I'm a bit unsure what this option really does, now that Peter said it doesn't make a table transactional, but I'm sure there is a reason for why it exists. So I'll see if I can add a checkbox right besides the engine drop down, which is enabled only if Aria is selected. Also I need to read out this attribute in existing tables, which needs some adjustment in my CREATE TABLE parser.

@Vlad you probably know that your company (Monty Program) and mine (Webyog) are partners (what means customers will gain a rebate to our products when comming from Monty Program website.  Check it out or ask Monty himself).  Not that I would mind that Ansgar adds this to Heidi. But basically we never found it very important.  Even if ARIA is set to transactioanl = 1 , it is not transactional.  it has crash recovery what is not the same.

tricky to add it as Aria-specific option,  currently  CREATE TABLE
