Hi Michal and List!
Oops, It seems I didn't read your message before Michal, sorry...
I've tested version in cvs and there are still some
problems while adding
fields to existing index. Tomorrow I'll have a look at it and probably make
some fix of it.
What are these problems and do you manage to fix them?
And there also could be some JavaScript that would
disable non-text fields,
while selecting index type "FULLTEXT".
Hum, I'll try to have a look at this tomorrow.
To all: two questions about indexes...
1. Do we still need "Primary, Index...." to be displayed in the table
properties
for each colums? IMHO the patch from Michal is enough and those features
are deprecated.
2. What to do whith indexes while creating a table? Should we keep this
feature as is (maybe just replace the three checkboxes by a combo) or
extend the index creation so it looks like the patch from Michal?
... and one more: what do you think of a 2.2.2-rc1 tomorrow (or maybe
a 2.3.0-rc1 since there are a bunch of new functionnalities ?)?
Regards,
Loïc

Hi Loic and list,
It's a bit unusual, but unfortunately it was the first thing I tried: When I
edit any index and I change it's name (also when I change PRIMARY key type to
anything else) and then when adding field(s), old index parts get lost. This
should be fixed by attached patch.
Great

I thing that these actions are not needed anymore, but it is easiest to
create index on one field using these actions than using advanced editing...

At least there should stay checkbox for primary key.

I don'k know, whether there is enough new features to 2.3.0 ;o)
But there is at least one bug in current cvs version: when dumping table I
get empty inserts, even if table contains some data:
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('', '', '', '', '');

Difficult question :) For developers it would be easier to maintain only the new style of
index
creation.
For experimented users, I think it would be cleaner to remove the links and always use the
new index
module.
However, beginners (and maybe pros) will prefer some quick links to click, than go to a
separate
index page.
2. What to do whith indexes while creating a table? Should we keep this

I would prefer to remove completely the links and put a message saying that now, phase 1
is fields
creation and phase 2 is index creation, available on the properties page.
Maybe go automatically to phase 2!
The new index module needs to have the fields already created, so we will have to have 2
phases.
But there will be complaints :)
If we keep the current checkboxes, users will think that the index possibilities in
phpMyAdmin are
quite limited. If we remove them, they will see the complete index module on a separate
page.
