If using this scheme, it would have to be disallowd in catalog names. For schema names it wouldn't make a difference (which is a deliberate design goal). >> Examples: >> >> drizzle --host=shared.host --user=mycatalog.hingo --password=sshhh myschema > > Why not --catalog=mycatalog? Yes, sorry for leaving out context. This would of course be possible. Stewart was more thinking of ways to provide some way to connect to a catalog that is also backward compatible, such as using mysql client, or mysql php and jdbc drivers. So it perhaps makes more sense to think of the above example as: mysql --host=shared.host --user=mycatalog.hingo --password=sshhh myschema henrik -- [email protected] +358-40-8211286 skype: henrik.ingo irc: hingo www.openlife.cc My LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=9522559 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
