[Phpmyadmin-devel] XML support for exporting
by AAMIR KHAN 13 Dec '10

13 Dec '10

There's option to export as XML in db_export.php while not in server_export.php in 3.4.0-aplha release... and this is same for previous stable releases too.. Why it is like this? why whole server can't be exported as XML file? ___ Regards systemw0rm

[Phpmyadmin-devel] seperate branch for solving elaborate bug?
by Dieter Adriaenssens 13 Dec '10

13 Dec '10

Hi all, Looking into the XML export functionality, some known issues (solved for SQL export) apply to XML export too : bug #3136658 : export functions/routines before tables [0] bug #3136655 : export view of view [1] bug #3076692 : events are not exported [2] At this moment these bugs cannot be reproduced because 'export schema structure' is not available as an option when exporting as xml, but before enabling and releasing (patch #3135414 [3] ) this, I think all the mentioned bugs should be solved, because it's not a good idea to introduce known bugs with a stable release. Now, as there is no real development branch at this moment, I was thinking it might be a good idea to create a separate branch for these related bugs, that can be merged into the QA_3_3/QA_3_4/master (or whichever branch is current then) once all the work is done. I know I can create a local development branch on my system, but then nobody else that would work on the same set of bugs, can keep current with development that was done. What do you think? BTW: I'm a bit inspired by a recent post of Linus about branching [4]. I realize this does not completely apply to what I'm suggesting here, but it got me thinking anyway. As I see it now, there is no real way of 'picking' features that go into a release, because everything is added to a development branch. Forgive me if I'm potentially overcomplicating things. ;) [0] https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3136658&group_id=23067&ati… [1] https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3136655&group_id=23067&ati… [2] https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3076692&group_id=23067&ati… [3] https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3135414&group_id=… [4] http://codicesoftware.blogspot.com/2010/11/linus-on-branching.html Kind regards, Dieter

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Adding xz to download options
by Michal Čihař 02 Dec '10

02 Dec '10

Hi all any opinions to provide xz compressed tarballs? It has better compression ratio that gzip or bzip2, while it requires similar resources for decompression as gzip (and this much less than bzip2). The script for creating releases and website is prepared for this, all what needs to be done is ensuring that xz-utils are installed on system, where relases are being done and enabling it in script creating release. You can find more information on xz here: http://tukaani.org/xz/ -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com

[Phpmyadmin-devel] QA_3_4 too soon
by Marc Delisle 02 Dec '10

02 Dec '10

Hi, I realize that I started QA_3_4 too soon. It only needs to begin when 3.4.0 (final) is released. I'll remove it. >From now on we should focus on stabilizing MAINT_3_4_0; new features would go to master only. If it makes sense to fix a bug in QA_3_3 (for 3.3.9) we do it; then we merge to MAINT_3_4_0 and master. -- Marc Delisle http://infomarc.info
