    Description

      In my filter, I would like to know when users connect to which DB. Currently, Maxscale allows clients to specify DB to connect to in the handshake reply, and the filter is not being called.

      This leads to inconsistent behavior of the filter: if the user specifies a database in the connection string, the filter does not know about it, but if database is not specified, and USE db is issued later, that goes through the filter.

      A quick solution to this is to remove the GW_MYSQL_CAPABILITIES_CONNECT_WITH_DB bit from the capabilities. This will force the clients to call USE db explicitly after connecting, regardless of the connection string supplied by the user.

      An alternative would be to let the filter know somehow that a database has been selected.

      I'm using this patch for the first alternative:
