Greetings!
Apologies in advance if I have sent this to the wrong list.
I am writing some code to help me admin the server using a GUI. Yes, yes,
I know it's been done before... But this GUI is integrated into my Visual
Basic app.
It sure would help a lot if SHOW would act like SELECT. Right now, I am
finding it kinda painful to do what I want, am having to go through a lot of
extra steps.
My wish would be for the following to work:
SHOW status WHERE Value > 0
and also
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE foo ( Variable_name VARCHAR(255), Value DOUBLE )
SHOW status
and especially
INSERT INTO foobar SHOW COLUMNS FROM aTable
======
Making SHOW compatible/symmetrical with SELECT would be a great enhancement
to the admin side of the server equation...
Thank You for Your Time,
