 Description   

The documentation of mysql_thread_init and mysql_thread_end seems too old.

According to the document, multi-thread client should call them, however, they do nothing indeed.

my_bool STDCALL mysql_thread_init(void)
 
{
 
  return 0;
 
}
 
 
 
void STDCALL mysql_thread_end(void)
 
{
 
}

I don't think this is a documentation issue.
Rather, I suspect it is a serious bug in multi-threaded application.
I suspect that if threads do not call mysql_init() or mysql_real_connect() , a thread cannot safely use a mysql connection created by another thread.
