[Bacula-users] mysql threadsafe client lib requirement

2007-10-10 Thread Rich
i stumbled upon the requirement for threadsafe mysql client library. the 
only way i found out what's wrong was by searching list archives :)

it would be nice if requirements page at 
http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/System_Requirements.html (and probably 
also for stable version) would explicitly state this.

even better would be if configure would not succeed with non-threadsafe 
client lib and spit out a meaningful message, hinting at threadsafe 
requirement (currently configure succeeds, but make fails in a quite 
cryptic way)

I agree. It should be documented.  If you supply the text you'd like 
to see, and the location you want it in, I'll commit it.  (i.e. you 
send the patch, I'll do the commit)

 even better would be if configure would not succeed with
 non-threadsafe client lib and spit out a meaningful message, hinting
 at threadsafe requirement (currently configure succeeds, but make
 fails in a quite cryptic way) -- 

That's nice too, but a bit beyond what I can do just now.

I think a pointer to the ReleaseNotes file in the chapter Building 
Bacula from Source in the manual would be ok.

 even better would be if configure would not succeed with non-threadsafe 
 client lib and spit out a meaningful message, hinting at threadsafe 
 requirement (currently configure succeeds, but make fails in a quite 
 cryptic way)

Quote from ReleaseNotes file:

Notes on 2.2.0 release follow:

Areas requiring caution or testing:
- You must have the thread safe version of MySQL client libraries loaded
   to build with MySQL enabled.
