[Maria-docs] MariaDB 5.5.20 Alpha
by Daniel Bartholomew 26 Feb '12

26 Feb '12

All, Nearly all of the mirrors have the MariaDB 5.5.20 Alpha packages and source tarball now, so I've gone ahead and activated the various pages for the release. The release notes are pretty sparse at the moment. If there is anything that should be added to them, please let me know ASAP, or jump in and add it directly. http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-5520-release-notes http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-5520-changelog http://downloads.askmonty.org/mariadb/5.5.20/ Thanks. -- Daniel Bartholomew MariaDB - http://mariadb.org Monty Program - http://montyprogram.com AskMonty Knowledgebase - http://kb.askmonty.org

I've just put a 'mariadb-5.3.4' tag to point at that revision (it was present and was pointing at revision 3402, which we didn't release.) The buildbot has finished building packages, so we've finished step #4 in the release-process.

[Maria-docs] http://kb.askmonty.org/en/annotate_rows_log_event
by Sergei Petrunia 03 Feb '12

Hi! I am looking at http://kb.askmonty.org/en/annotate_rows_log_event. This feature is only present in 5.3. However, the output there shows: master> SHOW BINLOG EVENTS IN 'master-bin.000001'; +-------------------+------+---------------+-----------+-------------+---------------------------------------------------+ | Log_name | Pos | Event_type | Server_id | End_log_pos | Info | +-------------------+------+---------------+-----------+-------------+---------------------------------------------------+ | master-bin.000001 | 4 | Format_desc | 100 | 240 | Server ver: 5.1.44-debug-log, Binlog ver: 4 | Note that the version is 5.1.44! THis is confusing. How did we get this output? Is it because binlog annotation was a patch against 5.1 at some point?

[Maria-docs] Request: mysqldump page must document differences with 5.3
by Sergei Petrunia 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

Hi Daniel, This page http://kb.askmonty.org/en/enhancements-for-start-transaction-with-consisten… documents a MariaDB 5.3 feature and mentions that "mysqldump has been extended". however, this page http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mysqldump doesn't mention 5.3 at all. I think, the changes introduced to 5.3 should be made apparent in the manual(and the first page ideally should link to the change description on the second) I have not throughly checked but on first glance diff'ing mysqldump output betwen 5.3 and 5.2 gives a clue about the change.
