A work proposal has been updated by the ExtSQL staff. Please visit https://www.extsql.com/developer/work.php?workID=0 for more details. The following is a brief overview of the proposal: ============================================================ Subject: Add whitespace handler to my.cnf parser Status: Bidding Description: I. FUNCTIONALITY to be provided:\r\n\r\nThis would be an update to the MySQL conf file parser. It would handle whitespace (newlines and tabs, specifically) within conf parameters.\r\n\r\nII. JUSTIFICATION for this change:\r\n\r\nExtSQL uses the MySQL parser for loading the extsql_class_list parameter. Unfortunately, the current parsing system does not allow for multi-line config entries which makes the long lines of the extsql config difficult to read. This change would allow DBAs to keep tidier CNF files.\r\n\r\nIII. USER INTERFACE SQL examples (if appropriate):\r\n\r\nn/a\r\n\r\nIV. SRC FILE IMPACT (anticipated list of changes, new files):\r\n\r\nunknown...MySQL cnf parsing functions.\r\n\r\nV. TESTING REQUIREMENTS (how/what needs to be tested):\r\n\r\nWill have to verify that there is no negative impact on other MySQL parameters.\r\n\r\nVI. LIMITATIONS to ExtSQL Version/OS/Arch (if expected):\r\n\r\nNone\r\n\r\nVII. SERVER SECURITY impact:\r\n\r\nNone\r\n\r\nVIII. ! EXTSQL VERSIONS implemented:\r\n\r\nx.x.2.0 |
