Re: [Drizzle-discuss] about replacing loadfile with filesystem storage engine

2010-07-31 Thread ZQ
Thanks for all the advice. I'm not familiar with PG's COPY, so I would take
a look.

anyway, I will start small, and make it more functional bit by bit :-) .

  Does Drizzle need all the featues of LOAD DATA INFILE? COPY in pg is
  much more basic and works fine...

 probably not fully... and I think COPY would be great to have too.

I have been thinking about this a bit. I have never liked LOAD DATA
INFILE. My big gripe is that as far as I know there is no way to get
it to work like a normal *nix program in terms out stdin. The same
sort of thought applies to SELECT INTO OUTFILE, I want to use stdout.
(can one emulate stdin/stdout usage by using a FIFO?).

I wonder if there would be some way for two servers to be using the
same file as a table through the filesystem storage engine in order to
achieve something like what I would like with stdin/stdout.

I wonder if something like the pgdump custom format might be
desirable in the future. PG uses their version of SELECT INTO OUTFILE
(COPY) to create a compressed single file of table(s) (or entire
schemas) archive including all the DDL. Individual schems/tables can
be restored through the use of the pgrestore utility. Are any
decisions being made now that would make it easier have something
similar?

[Drizzle-discuss] Monty Taylor: O, hai intltool!

2010-07-31 Thread Planet Drizzle


Monty Taylor: O, hai intltool!

Almost no one will ever notice anything about this, but I'm excited, so I thought I'd share.Instead of using the build infrastructure installed by gettextize to handle message translations, we're now using the more modern replacement, intltool.Unless you're actually hacking on build, this will mean nothing - translations are still done via launchpad - Drizzle still uses gettext() to translate strings. It's purely a tooling change which means the build is less brittle and I'm slightly less ornery. Oh, and we have many less random generated files committed to bzr. I like deleting files.URL: http://inaugust.com/post/82
