Embedded InnoDB is based on the InnoDB Plugin, but is used completely independently from MySQL. It is designed to be linked directly into application programs, and provides highly efficient, low-level database management services, not using SQL.

Embedded InnoDB provides the features, functions and capabilities that embedded application require:

* the proven high-performance and reliability and functionality of InnoDB
* a low-level but powerful API for application programmers
* the operational characteristics needed for stand-alone applications where there is no DBA

You can now dynamically install a binary library containing the InnoDB Plugin into MySQL 5.1.30 for Windows, without building from source (just as is possible on other platforms). Other changes include the ability to control index cardinality estimates, and making some configuration parameters dynamically settable, along with bug fixes.

See the announcement at [www.innodb.com] and download the newest InnoDB Plugin from [www.innodb.com].

Just wanted to let you know that there are some known issues with loading plugin binaries (1.0.0) into MySQL 5.1.24. The error:

Can't open shared library 'ha_innodb.so' (errno: 0 API version for STORAGE ENGINE plugin is too different

is issued. This is because we tested and built the binaries against 5.1.23 and 5.1.24 was released shortly after that. Currently working on some permanent solution...

P.S. Compiling from source does not suffer from these problems.]]> Vasil Dimov Announcements Thu, 17 Apr 2008 19:07:28 +0300 http://forums.innodb.com/read.php?5,14,14#msg-14 http://forums.innodb.com/read.php?5,14,14#msg-14
You can now download from www.innodb.com/support/downloads, an early adopter release of an upgraded version of InnoDB with additional features beyond the standard built-in InnoDB provided by MySQL. The InnoDB Plugin supports several new features for improved performance, reliability, ease of use and flexibility. See here for a description of the new features in InnoDB Plugin 1.0 for MySQL 5.1. Documentation for the InnoDB Plugin is available here.

The early adopter release of InnoDB Plugin for MySQL is available for MySQL 5.1 and later, in source and binary (for most platforms) and is licensed under GPLv2. Users can dynamically INSTALL the InnoDB Plugin to replace the built-in InnoDB within MySQL 5.1 Linux and other Unix-like operating systems (and soon on Windows) without compiling from source or relinking MySQL. (For now, Windows users must re-build from source.)

Databases created with the built-in InnoDB in MySQL are compatible with the InnoDB Plugin. It is possible to use the InnoDB Plugin, and then “fall back” to the built-in InnoDB in MySQL 5.1 if desired. The InnoDB Plugin is supported via these forums.]]> KenJacobs Announcements Sat, 12 Apr 2008 06:50:37 +0300
