MySQL docs: Replication Chapter Revamped

2007-02-13 Thread Stefan Hinz
Replication Chapter Revamped

We have completely reworked the replication chapter for the 5.1 manual.
This targets a number of issues, including a major redesign (to make it
easier to read and find topics), some updates to the information and
processes, and incorporation of numerous bug fixes. You can see the new
chapter here:

* http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/replication.html

The main features:

* New layout. We've ripped apart the old chapter format and replaced it
  with a new one. No information has been lost, although a lot of it has
  been moved around.

* We now have four distinct sections:
  - Replication Configuration - includes details on setup (including How
To notes), options and variables, replication formats, and a new
section on common replication tasks.
  - Replication Solutions - this is designed to feature specific
scenarios where replication is used. For example, it contains the
scale-out solution that was in the FAQ, along with specific notes
and guides on backups, splitting replication, and SSL.
  - Replication Notes and Tips - this collects together sections that
were spread about the old structure, including upgrades,
compatibility, known features and issues and the FAQ.
  - Replication Implementation - the innards of the replication system
and how it works.

In all cases we've either rewritten or hugely expanded the information,
and there are also new illustrations with a consistent look and feel to
describe layouts and architecture. The new structure will make it easier
to add new functionality, scenarios and background information. For
example, one other section that is planned, but not in the current
documentation yet, is Replication Topologies. Other planned mprovements,
such as the MBR/SBR/RBR decision table and implicit commit tables now
have a more suitable home in the Replication Implementation section.

Regards,

Stefan

 Try googling for subquery, considering that's what they're called...

Regardless, I still can not find any concrete definitions as to what
versions support it and what do not.

I usually search using: http://www.mysql.com/keyword

http://www.mysql.com/subquery will lead to:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/subqueries.html

This will lead to the 5.0 documentation, but changing the '5.0' in the 
url to '4.1' will give you the 4.1 documentation.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/subqueries.html

Quite easy I think...

Kind regards, Jigal.

Hello, with the release of 5, I seem to have all dead links to my old docs
for mysql 4.  The way they keep changing the urls is a little maddedning :-)

Can someone step me through this, how, on the mysql site, do I find out
about subselects, and more specifically, what version of mysql they were
added to, and what versions do not support them?

Google this: 
subselect site:dev.mysql.com
And I get mostly non English stuff, limiting to english and I get a whopping
37 pages, none of which seem to help me much.

Docs guidance appreciated :-)

Actually, many people use the term subselect where you prefer subquery;
I've heard subselect quite a bit in 20+ years of working with relational
databases. Not the MySQL people perhaps but it is a reasonable term to use
in a search

The example engine is just a stub for developers to see how to get
started writing a storage engine.  If you use ENGINE=EXAMPLE,
the table is created, but you can't actually store anything in it.
CSV stores data as comma-separated-values lines.
I don't know much about the archive engine yet.

Ray,
get a copy of pinfo-0.6.3.tar.gz, compile and use it to load mysql.info
It looks like lynx with colors and works like a charm.

Re: Online Documentation App Bug?: User Comments in MySQL docs are a little off

 Hi,
 
  I just noticed that at least 2 pages in the online MySQL docs
  definitely have the associated user comments a little askew. 
  I thought I'd mention it here while I was thinking of it. 
  Apologies if not the correct location for such a post.
 
 we are currently in the process of a major manual rewrite and the
 sections are moved around constantly.
 
 once we get done with this (that should happen pretty soon), we 
 will do a comment cleanup and move everything back to place.

It'd be helpful if the web site mentioned that as well.
