README for Mini SQL Version 2.0 Beta 1
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Mini SQL 2! It's been a long time coming but we hope the
|
|
wait has been worth it. As the development of mSQL 2 continues, further
|
|
funtionality will be made available. This release concentrates on
|
|
adding the underlying performance and data handling features to mSQL.
|
|
|
|
The software has changed quite a lot since the 1.x version of mSQL.
|
|
Some of the new features are greatly improved support for indexing your
|
|
data, much better performance for complex queries and large data sets,
|
|
the addition of variable length TEXT fields, support for server managed
|
|
numeric sequences, better regular expression handling, and easier
|
|
control over the configuration of the server.

FreeBSD-specific port notes
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The ports of mSQL 1.x lived in it's own tree, /usr/local/Minerva. At the
|
|
time, mSQL was a part of a larger project called Minerva, to which other
|
|
tools would be added. These other tools would also live in
|
|
/usr/local/Minerva.
|
|
|
|
As of the 2.x release of mSQL, the author of mSQL has put many of these
|
|
tools into the base mSQL distribution, and so it is no longer feasible to
|
|
have the program live in it's own directory.
|
|
|
|
So, in keeping with the BSD directory tree structure, you will find the
|
|
following changes between the "official" mSQL 2.x distribution and the
|
|
FreeBSD port :
