Welcome to the MCS wiki!

LN TODO list:

1. Update the list of MySQL field Type managed (e.g information_schema.schemata field SQL_PATH in version 8 is BINARY not VARCHAR).

2. At least for the IDL interface, while the length of the table name is now managed correctly, field names longer than 15 char (TBV) are not being read correctly. For example:

mysql> describe information_schema.SCHEMATA;
+----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field                      | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| CATALOG_NAME               | varchar(512) | NO   |     |         |       |
| SCHEMA_NAME                | varchar(64)  | NO   |     |         |       |
| DEFAULT_CHARACTER_SET_NAME | varchar(32)  | NO   |     |         |       |
| DEFAULT_COLLATION_NAME     | varchar(32)  | NO   |     |         |       |
| SQL_PATH                   | varchar(512) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
+----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

But the IDL interface reads (dbtest2.pro was used):

CATALOG_NAME SCHEMA_NAME ?
                               '  SQL_PATH

3. Need to write a README in the contrib/libidl directory and add a single demo program with insert/update/select demo queries.

4. Add the FORTRAN interface and test it.

5. Move the directory doc to docs and add an .md file.
