FrostedPopTart Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I think MySQL5 support comes in IPB 2.2. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Yes, MySQL 5 will be supported in 2.2 (already completed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 What advantages does MySQL 5 have over MySQL 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Yes, MySQL 5 will be supported in 2.2 (already completed). Has it been completely tested too, and all features work perfectly (well the same in v4 anyway) in MySQL 5? Were a lot of changes required? I would have tested it on MySQL 5 it but it expired before I had the chance, so when we're sent the rebuild I will run through it just to check for myself.

To my knowlege there are not current issues even in IPB 2.1.6, there is one thing I should say, while it works it does NOT take advantage of any of the changes. There isn't really anything to test, it either works or it doesn't. MySQL 5.0.x has been in a test phase for at least 2 years, it just was made a stable release in the last 5 months. There shouldn't be any issues, I have no issues with MySQL 5.0.x even now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Matt has tested it (and Dynamic) on MySQL 5 (I'm still running MySQL 4 locally so we can have a broader testbed overall). Really, like Dark Phantom said, it either works or it doesn't. There were a few changes yes - mainly in the way queries were structured (you don't select from multiple tables the same way - you have to join them properly). Though, as he said, it does not take advantage of Stored Procedures, Views, or any of the other newer features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcele Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I'm still wanting the IPB MySQLi driver with bound paramaters and bound results .. then you would really see IPB fly :PGreater speed. Enhancements in both the extension and in MySQL have made most operations faster, with certain operations becoming up to 40 times faster as compared to ext/mysql.
