As Norvald wrote in his recent post:
A long time ago, libmysqlclient came in two versions: one that was thread safe and one that wasn’t. But that was a long time ago. Since MySQL 5.5, the thread safe libmysqlclient_r library has just been a symlink to the libmysqlclient library, which has been thread safe at least since then.
…
The client library — libmysqlclient — is part of the same source code repository as the server. It comes both as a dynamic link library (.so), also called a shared library, and as a static link library (.a). During the 5.7 development cycle, we’ve made several improvements to the library, which has resulted in a bump from ABI version 18 to version 20.…

On Tuesday Steaphan Greene announced that all currently-pushed changes have now been rebased onto the newly-released upstream MySQL-5.6.24.
The new branch at this point is available on github.
Our .deb and .rpm builds are available in the PSCE repo as well as being browsable here http://repo.psce.com/download/webscalesql/
Instructions for using the repo are available for Debian …

Few months ago, when MySQL Engineering Team moved MySQL Server
sources to GitHub I found it would be waste of time to manually
copy all scripts which I use to regularly and automatically build
and test all versions, needed for verifying bug reports. I run
these scripts on 3 machines at least. So I started my own GitHub
project, called mysql-scripts
Now this project contains four scripts. First one is
build.sh which I use for building. By default it
checks out MySQL Server sources, builds them in directory
$HOME/src/mysql-VERSION, then installs to
$HOME/build/mysql-VERSION But all configuration is
settable. For example, now I regularly build Percona Server with single command `build.sh -g …
Today Oracle released MySQL 5.7.6 milestone 16. With this, MySQL 5.7
has been in development for over 2 years.
Compared to MySQL 5.6, the changes are quite extensive. The main
effort of the team has been focused on speed, with performance
reportedly improved from 2 to 3 times compared to previous
releases.
A full list of what is new would take too much
space here, but I would like to mention some key points:
The 5.7.5 DMR is now available, and we’ve made some changes to our build system in this one, so I wanted to spend some time discussing how you would now build MySQL.
When we released our April labs release, I wrote about building MySQL with Boost. Now that the first GIS work using Boost.Geometry has passed all the hurdles and landed in a development milestone release (DMR), it’s time to revisit the topic. From now on (5.7.5 and newer), MySQL needs Boost headers to compile. It’s not optional.
We got a few bug …

Well, we have all heard about the fastest php framework out
there. But how do we install it in a Ubuntu Linux machine.
Default process for any linux setup.
Steps:
1. First, we need a few packages
previously installed. To install them, issue the distro specific
command in your linux terminal.
For Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install php5-dev php5-mysql gcc
libpcre3-dev
For Fedora:
sudo yum install php-devel php-mysqlnd gcc libtool
For RHEL:
sudo yum install php-devel php-mysql gcc libtool
For Suse:
yast2 -i php5-pear php5-devel php5-mysql gcc
Basically, here we are installing the dev tools we require to
compile and setup the Phalcon extension.
2. Get the Phalcon build using git
git …
As you've probably heard already MySQL needs boost to build.
However, in the good ol' MySQL tradition, the above link does give you only the instructions on how to build it on linux. And completely ignores the fact that there're other OSes too that people develop on.
To fill in that gap, I've compiled a small step by step guide on how to do it on windows. Note that I always, as a principle, build out-of-source.
The typical setup I have is :
bzr clone lp:~mysql/mysql-server/5.7 mysql-trunk
cd mysql-trunk
mkdir bld
cd bld
cmake -DWITH_DEBUG=1 -DMYSQL_PROJECT_NAME=mysql-trunk ..
devenv /build debug mysql-trunk.sln
This has been tested to work on a 32 bit compile using VS2013 on a Windows7 64 bit build. Note that you'll need …
[Read more]Looks like this post was rather unclear. See the bottom for how to build the rpms quickly.
WebScaleSQL was announced last week. This looks like a good thing for MySQL as it provides a buildable version of MySQL which includes multiple patches from Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, and Twitter needed by large users of MySQL, patches which have not been incorporated into the upstream source tree. Making this more visible will possibly encourage more of these patches to be brought into the code sooner.
The source is provided as a git repo at https://github.com/webscalesql/webscalesql-5.6 and as detailed at http://webscalesql.org/faq.html the documentation says there is currently no intention to provide binaries. …
