[Qt-interest] Trouble getting merge request accepted (for mysql isopen function)

[Raphaël Gertz]

Hi,

I sumited the 19 and 25 merge request of a patch against qt and qt-kde branch:
http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/merge_requests/1274
http://qt.gitorious.org/+kde-developers/qt/kde-qt/merge_requests/1316

I submited a bug report against qt too, but the created issue 260034 (see 
forwarded mail) has disappear on http://qt.nokia.com/developer/task-tracker

I learned today that qt is in feature freeze.

But may you please review my patch and apply it ?

Without it any application that rely on isOpen function for checking the 
remote sql server status is designed to fail if using the mysql backend.

Typical case :
1 : Application x use a remote sql server sql.example.com
2 : X use postgresql backend, everything works fine
3 : X switch to mysql, strange errors happen on sql request section where it 
should works
4 : the code to report sql downtime don't work correctly, etc...
5 : dev has to check the qt code to track the bug down

It's even worse because with mysql backend the only reliable way is to perform 
a real select and check the return result.

An affected application is for example kde akonadi which may use a remote mysql 
server.

This bug is not new, it has already been reported there :
http://qt.nokia.com/developer/task-tracker/index_html?method=entry&id=130779

Patch is there :
http://qt.gitorious.org/~rapsys/qt/rapsys-qt-mysql-
isopen/commit/c7c84adbdfa1f46b842b4f537fb3ef3900ff9899
And there :
http://qt.gitorious.org/~rapsys/qt/rapsys-kde-qt-mysql-
isopen/commit/0bd84180cd0a6ae5c5eb18c0d3ed74228434608d

It's realy minor and just fix a missing function that is present in postgresql 
backend for example.

Thank's for your answer.
