Upgrading to InnoDB tables

2002-03-14 Thread Sanjay Chigurupati

Hi,
We have Mysql standard distribution (ver 3.23.32) for
Solaris and we just realised that we needed InnoDB
support. What would be the easiest way to add InnoDB
table type? Is it possible to do it without  affecting
the tables and databases that are already present.

thanks,
Sanjay Chigurupati

Re InnoDb tables

2002-03-12 Thread Sanjay Chigurupati

Hi,
does any1 know what is the earliest version of Mysql
for Solaris, with support for InnoDB? 
If I am not mistaken, the version that we have is
3.23.32. 
Can MySql Max be added or some patch be added?

This is not on  a personal machine. It's on a server
in my department (computer's science) and this is part
of my project.

thanks,
Sanjay

Reg Foreign Key

2002-03-07 Thread Sanjay Chigurupati

Hi,
Should I or shouldn't I explicitly specify the foreign
key in Mysql? If I am not mistaken, Mysql handles
foreign keys automatically at query time and we need
not explicitly specify the foreign key.

But, will the database detect error when  I enter
non-existent value for a foreign key?

Do I need to explicitly specify foreign key when
creating table?

If I have to, can I use Alter table to modify table
that has been already created?

Thanks,
Sanjay Chigurupati
