[slim] Re: Database schema changes with MySQL

2006-01-10 Thread Browny

When Slimserver connects to the db for the first time it automatically
runs the dbcreate.sql for you and starts a scan.

There is also the metainformation table that holds details about what
version of the database it is.

Ok, so my initial import of the schema was un-necessary.

 There is also the metainformation table that holds details about what
 version of the database it is.

Does that mean that if a new version of slimserver comes out with a new
database version, then the new schema will be applied automatically?

Thanks

Andy

Yes should do.  Each release  of the database comes with an upgrade
script that get applied when Slimserver starts.  Normally this script
is just incrementing the version number, but occasionally the structure
of the tables may change.

Excellent, just what I wanted to know.

Thanks
