Sometimes you want to know whether the parsing using different
queryclassifiers differs, irrespective of whether they agree
upon the outcome or not.
With -R it is now possible to cause a difference in the return
value of qc_parse() to be printed.
If the version if >= 10.2.3 recognized/builtin Json function should
be typed as QUERY_TYPE_READ while unrecognized ones should be typed
as QUERY_TYPE_READ | QUERY_TYPE_WRITE.
By default, only the essentials - the type and the operation - of
a statement will be collected and only if fields, tables, functions
and databases are explicitly asked for, will they be collected.
However, a statement will be parsed at most twice; if parsing is
needed a second time then all information will be collected.
If it is known that some particular information is needed, then
qc_parse() can be called explicitly to ensure it is collected
at first parsing.
It is now possible to specify what information the caller is interested
in. With this the cost for collecting information during the query parsing
that nobody is interested in can be avoided.
The process and thread initialization/finalization of the query
classifier plugins is handled using the process and thread
initialization/finalization functions in the module object.
However, the top-level query classifier will also need to perform
process and thread initialization when transaction boundaries are
detected using regular expressions.
Since the whole preparable statement will be available, it is
superfluous to provide a function using which the operation of
the preparable statement can be obtained.
- Only types of fixed size used in API interface
- The actual function return value specifies whether the parsing
process succeeded, while "logical" return values are returned
as out arguments.
The wrapper function currently ignores the function return value.

Now both qc_mysqlembedded and qc_sqlite return the same stuff
for the same statement, and both include also operators in
addition to pure functions. Whether that is the right approach,
is still subject to debate.
However, if we want to make it possible to disable e.g. the
use of concat as in "select concat(a) from t", where a is a string,
to prevent the bypassing of the masking filter, then conceptually
it should be possible to prevent "select a+0 from t", where a is an
int, as well.
The setting up and the initialization of the query classifier has
now been separated. The gateway explicitly sets up the query
classifier (i.e. chooses which one to use and what arguments to
provide), but the actual initialization is performed as part of
the general module initialization.
The capability for reading MySQL/MariaDB .test-files has now been
factored out from the compare.cc test program. That way, the
functionality can be used from other test programs as well.
With 2.0.1 or earlier, if a statement contains a trailing NULL,
the statement will inside qc_sqlite.c incorrectly be assumed not
to be the one to be classified with a crash being indirectly the
result.
Together with the field names, now qc_get_field_info also returns
field usage information, that is, in what context a field is used.
This allows, for instance, the cache to take action if a a particular
field is selected (SELECT a FROM ...), but not if it is used in a
GROUP BY clause (...GROUP BY a).
This caused a significant modifications of qc_mysqlembedded that
earlier did not walk the parse-tree, but instead looped over of a
list of st_select_lex instances that, the name notwithstanding,
also contain information about other things but SELECTs. The former
approach lost all contextual information, so it was not possible
to know where a particular field was used.
Now the parse tree is walked, which means that the contextual
information is known, and thus the field usage can be updated.
Function is no longer used and it was quite unoptimal, so now
removed.
qc_get_prepare_name, qc_get_prepare_operation and qc_get_field_info
that were missing from qc_dummy added at the same time.
We now collect more information about a particular field and
then, if necessary, copy the data over into affected_fields if
someone is interested in that.
The comparison program is extended as well, but qc_get_fields_infos()
is not tested, because qc_mysqlembedded does not implement this yet.
The operation of the statement to be prepared is no longer
reported as the operation of the PREPARE statement.
Instead, when the type of the statement is
QUERY_TYPE_PREPARE_NAMED_STMT, the operation can be obtained
using qc_get_prepare_operation().
The qc_mysqlembedded implementation will be provided in a
subsequent commit.
Now more information about a transaction start is provided. When
a transaction start statement is parsed, the type of the statement
with be QUERY_TYPE_BEGIN_TRX anded with QUERY_TYPE_READ or
QUERY_TYPE_WRITE if the transaction was explicitly started as READ
ONLY or READ WRITE.
Now also BEGIN WORK and [COMMIT|ROLLBACK] WORK are recognized.
"AND CHAIN" will still need to be recognized.
The general purpose stuff in skygw_utils.h was moved to utils.h
and the corresponding implementation from skygw_utils.cc to utils.c.
Includes updated accordingly.
Skygw_utils.h is now only used by log_manager and by mlist, which
is only used by log_manager. Consequently, skygw_utils.h was moved
to server/maxscale.
Utils.h needs a separate overhaul.
- STRERROR_BUFLEN moved to cdefs.h and renamed to MXS_STRERROR_BUFLEN.
Better would be to provide a 'const char* mxs_strerror(int errno)'
that would have a thread specific buffer for the error message.
- MIN and MAX also moved to defs.h as MXS_MIN and MXS_MAX.
- Now only mlist.h of the headers depend upon skygw_utils.h.
