Os/2 Notes; Environment Variables - Oracle 5.0 Reference Manual

SEMMNU = SEMMNS
Set the value of
SEMMNS, but this is a conservative estimate.

2.20.6. OS/2 Notes

MySQL uses quite a few open files. Because of this, you should add something like the following to
your
CONFIG.SYS
SET EMXOPT=-c -n -h1024
If you do not do this, you may encounter the following error:
File 'xxxx' not found (Errcode: 24)
When using MySQL with OS/2 Warp 3, FixPack 29 or above is required. With OS/2 Warp 4, FixPack
4 or above is required. This is a requirement of the Pthreads library. MySQL must be installed on a
partition with a type that supports long file names, such as HPFS, FAT32, and so on.
The
INSTALL.CMD
shells such as 4OS2.EXE.
The
scripts/mysql-install-db
REXX script, which sets up the default MySQL security settings and creates the WorkPlace Shell icons
for MySQL.
Dynamic module support is compiled in but not fully tested. Dynamic modules should be compiled
using the Pthreads runtime library.
gcc -Zdll -Zmt -Zcrtdll=pthrdrtl -I../include -I../regex -I.. \
-o example udf_example.c -L../lib -lmysqlclient udf_example.def
mv example.dll example.udf
mysql> CREATE FUNCTION metaphon RETURNS STRING SONAME 'example.so';
In OS/2, the module would be named example.udf, but you would not specify the module extension:
mysql> CREATE FUNCTION metaphon RETURNS STRING SONAME 'example';

2.21. Environment Variables

This section lists all the environment variables that are used directly or indirectly by MySQL. Most of
these can also be found in other places in this manual.
Note that any options on the command line take precedence over values specified in option files
and environment variables, and values in option files take precedence over values in environment
variables.
