Hi Brain,
Yeah, that sounds like it would solve the problem nicely. The storage
engine is being used to access separate databases strewn across the
filesystem. There is no natural place to store the paths other than
somewhere within MySQL since it is the only thing tying these
disparate databases together.
Putting the paths in the frm makes a lot of sense. If your patch is
close to being done, i'd love to have a go at giving it a test.
Thanks,
Sean
