    Appendix D: MySQL Change History 675 Appendix D  MySQL Change History This appendix lists the changes from version to version in the MySQL source code. Note that we tend to update the manual at the same time we make changes to MySQL. If  you   nd  a  version  listed  here  that  you  can't   nd  on  the  MySQL  download  page (http://www.mysql.com/downloads/),  this  means  that  the  version  has  not  yet  been released! D.1  Changes in release 4.0.x (Development; Alpha) We  are  now  working  actively  on  MySQL  4.0  and  will  only  provide  critical  bug   xes  for MySQL 3.23.  We will update this section as we add new features, so that others can follow our development. Our TODO section contains what we plan to have in 4.0.  See Section 1.8.1 [TODO MySQL 4.0], page 44. D.1.1  Changes in release 4.0.3    Allow DEFAULT with INSERT statement.    The startup parameters myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size and myisam_max_extra_ sort_file_size are now given in bytes, not megabytes.    External system locking of MyISAM/ISAM les is now turned o by default.  One can turn this one by doing --external-locking.  (For most users this is never needed).    Fixed core dump bug with INSERT ... SET db_name.table_name.colname=''.    Fixed client hangup bug when using some SQL commands with wrong syntax.    Fixed a timing bug in DROP DATABASE    New SET [GLOBAL | SESSION] syntax to change thread speci c and global server vari- ables at runtime.    Renamed variable query_cache_startup_type to query_cache_type, myisam_bulk_ insert_tree_size  to  bulk_insert_buffer_size,  record_buffer  to  read_buffer_ size and record_rnd_buffer to record_rnd_buffer_size.    Renamed some sql variables, but old names will still work until 5.0.  See  Section 2.5.1 [Upgrading-from-3.23], page 100.    Renamed --skip-locking to --skip-external-locking.    Removed not used variable query_buffer_size.    Fixed a bug that made the pager option in the mysql client non-functional.    Added full AUTO_INCREMENT support to MERGE tables.    Extended  LOG()  function  to  accept  an  optional  arbitrary  base  parameter.   See  Sec- tion 6.3.3.2 [Mathematical functions], page 424.
