-
Added new C API function
mysql_ping().
-
Added new API functions
mysql_init() and mysql_options().
You now MUST call mysql_init() before you call
mysql_real_connect().
You don't have to call mysql_init() if you only use
mysql_connect().
-
Added
mysql_options(...,MYSQL_OPT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT,...) so you can set a
timeout for connecting to a server.
-
Added
--timeout option to mysqladmin, as a test of
mysql_options().
-
Added
AFTER column and FIRST options to
ALTER TABLE ... ADD columns.
This makes it possible to add a new column at some specific location
within a row in an existing table.
-
WEEK() now takes an optional argument to allow handling of weeks when
the week starts on Monday (some European countries). By default,
WEEK() assumes the week starts on Sunday.
-
TIME columns weren't stored properly (bug in MySQL 3.22.0).
-
UPDATE now returns information about how many rows were
matched and updated, and how many ``warnings'' occurred when doing the update.
-
Fixed incorrect result from
FORMAT(-100,2).
-
ENUM and SET columns were compared in binary (case-sensitive)
fashion; changed to be case insensitive.
