Add some nice start and shutdown icons to the MySQL installation.

@item

Create a tool to manage registry entries for the MySQL startup

options.  The registry entry reading is already coded into @file{mysqld.cc},

but it should be recoded to be more parameter oriented.  The tool should

also be able to update the @file{C:\my.cnf} option file if the user prefers

to use that instead of the registry.

@item

When registering @code{mysqld} as a service with @code{--install} (on NT)

it would be nice if you could also add default options on the command line.

For the moment, the workaround is to list the parameters in the

@file{C:\my.cnf} file instead.

@item

It would be real nice to be able to kill @code{mysqld} from the task manager.

For the moment, you must use @code{mysqladmin shutdown}.

@item

Port @code{readline} to Windows for use in the @code{mysql} command line tool.

@item

GUI versions of the standard MySQL clients (@code{mysql},

@code{mysqlshow}, @code{mysqladmin}, and @code{mysqldump}) would be nice.

@item

It would be nice if the socket read and write functions in @file{net.c} were

interruptible. This would make it possible to kill open threads with

@code{mysqladmin kill} on Windows.

@item

@code{mysqld} always starts in the "C" locale and not in the default locale.

We would like to have @code{mysqld} use the current locale for the sort order.

@item

Implement UDF functions with @code{.DLL}s.

@item

Add macros to use the faster thread-safe increment/decrement methods

provided by Windows.

Other Windows-specific issues are described in the @file{README} file that

comes with the MySQL-Windows distribution.

@cindex checksum errors

On Solaris, you may run into trouble even before you get the MySQL

distribution unpacked!  Solaris @code{tar} can't handle long file names, so

you may see an error like this when you unpack MySQL:

The CSSA-2001-SCO.35.2 (the patch is listed in custom as

erg711905-dscr_remap security patch (ver 2.0.0) breaks FSU threads and

makes mysqld instable.  You have to remove this one if you want to run

mysqld on an OpenServer 5.0.6 machine.

@appendixsubsec Changes in release 3.23.50

@itemize @bullet

@item

Fixed problem with @code{SHOW CREATE TABLE} and @code{PRIMARY KEY} when using

32 indexes.

@item

Fixed that one can use @code{SET PASSWORD} for the anonymous user.

@item

Fixed core-dump bug when reading client groups from option files using

@code{mysql_options()}.
