Hi there,

I'm using MySQL 4.0.18 and finding that DROP TEMPORARY TABLE is performing
an implicit commit, as is documented.

The problem is that I have a complex query in a Java function, and I need to
call it a number of times to get the overall, which I also want to do as a
single transaction so as not to leave data inconsistent at any point.

The implicit commit is causing me a problem here, the only solution to which
I can think is to use 4.1.0 (which is alpha) or to do some horrible table
name mangling for the temp table and just accumulate a lot of data for the
duration of the transaction.

Does anyone know if it is planned to back port the fix in 4.1.0 onto 4.0.21
or later?

>From 4.1.0 changelog:

 - DROP TEMPORARY TABLE now drops only temporary tables and doesn't end
transactions.

Thanks,

Mike
