The variable storing the configuration index renamed from
'current_config' to 'config_index'.
In the code the same terminology is used as in the documentation.
"Default" is is used for referring to the default connections
(earlier "primary" was used) and the secondary connections are
referred to as "secondary" (earlier "alternative" was also used).
0 cannot be used to indicate failure as 0 will be the waiting
period if we switch to an alternative server.
Also fix some minor issues; failure to initialize all members
and inverted success-check.
Separating the reading of the config from the process of
applying it allows us to use configs around and later apply
them (e.g. when we decide its time to switch master server).
At save time, assert that the configuration as dispersed around
blr and as stored in the config object are identical.
Later its the state from the config object that will be saved.
Alternative masters can now be specified like
CHANGE MASTER TO ...
CHANGE MASTER ":2" TO ...
CHANGE MASTER ":3" TO ...
Now only the data is stored, but it is neither used nor
saved.
To prepare the router's for the eventual removal of the router_options
parameter, the API option arguments should not be used. The parameters can
be substituted by tokenizing the value of the parameter that is still
stored as a part of the service.
This clarifies what parts of the router are specific to the binlogrouter
and what are common between the binlogrouter and avrorouter.
Ideally, the two modules would use the same infrastructure to handle the
processing of replication events. This is the first, albeit small, step
towards making the code in the binlogrouter the common infrastructure.
