Have you tried vimlander2 as a vim config? Chad Humphries, a Columbus native, is the author. I highly suggest it!

Do you have any information on the security implications of Stored Procedures? I have read a lot about stored procs for MSSQL improving security for posted data - and have assumed the same for MySQL. Is that true?

Well I can't think of one cloud commercial that wasn't "Shrouded in mystery". I can' think of one cloud commercial that even tells you what "cloud computing" even is. They make it sound so amazing, but really we've already had the technology for it, apparently we were just missing the word.

Thanks for posting. Monty's explanation is redundant. Starting from 5.5 the server always commits the statement transaction explicitly at the end of the statement. Nobody need to count locks any more. Cheers, Dan

I would hop over to #drizzle on IRC (freenode.net) and ask krow and others what bugs are good ones to start with.

Yep, that's true. Note that this article was written >2 years ago. :) Back then, things weren't quite as simple ;)

On a Debian system you can just say 'sudo aptitude build-dep drizzle' to get all the packages required for developing drizzle.

But Jay, how can we distinguish ourselves from all the other companies that do the same thing if we don't invent new marketing words that make us sound like we actually know what we're doing?

The real reason is support. These vendors have to support their devices. It's hard to just sell a bare machine because then they have no idea what you will put on it. Then they are forced to not really support it at all. Thanks

Thanks: I'm an Oracle/SQL Server coder being asked to work in MySQL, and I'd been wondering if I'd get the same performance increases I'm used to. This plus the comments gives me exactly what I needed to know.

We all know who and what MoG is about and everything she writes should be viewed with full knowledge of her past misdeeds, lies and sleaze.

replace apt-add-repository with add-apt-repository (a typo)!

That's good to hear that the statement boundaries are more explicit in MySQL 5.5. For storage engine developers, it's a clear win.

No, not the best way to comment on it, but no worries!

That stored procedure was meant as an example of a reporting-type stored procedure, nothing more. You can modify either the data in the database (just run an UPDATE on the dates of things, updating from 2006 to 2010) or you may modify the stored procedure to accept a data or date range to pull the older data.

Cheers!

Re: "rewards_report" (per http://dev.mysql.com/doc/sakil....

I saw that you were the original author: "Added rewards_report stored procedure, submitted by Jay Pipes".

"The rewards_report stored procedure generates a customizable list of the top customers for the previous month."

This produces an "Empty set" since the data is from 2006!

Sorry if this is not the best way to pass this comment on...

I too had in mind that the procedures are stored as in SQL server but i was wrong.

Hi Jay,

I tried the hard way today and ./configure additionally required for gperf, libdrizzle-dev and libboost-program-options-dev

Thanks!

Hi Keith!

Drizzle has no stored procedures. I do not know about a timeframe for adding them back, if at all.

Cheers!

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification :)

Heya, Kostja!

Good to hear on a global cache; that's very good news! And, yes, I understand about forward-looking statements :)

As for the "on-demand" invalidation, it is still the case that any modification of any stored procedure will cause all other stored procedures to *eventually* be invalidated, though. Unless, of course, you're talking about code in 5.5 that's not on Launchpad? Or am I misunderstanding the point of the Cversion code?

Cheers!
