Make MariaDB Connector/C handle my.cnf parsing for clients

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Client tools like "mysql" use MariaDB Connector/C in 10.2 and above after MDEV-9293. However, the client tools still use the server code to parse my.cnf and other option/configuration files. See here:

      https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/c0ba036b774b8e35567dccce421890d2199f30ce/client/mysql.cc#L1176

      https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/c0ba036b774b8e35567dccce421890d2199f30ce/include/my_default.h#L50

      https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/c0ba036b774b8e35567dccce421890d2199f30ce/mysys/my_default.c#L464

      Do we want to make MariaDB Connector/C handle this job for clients at some point too?
