New Event Feature in MySQL 5.1.6New Event Feature in MySQL 5.1.6Posted Jan 25, 2006 1:57 UTC (Wed) by zblaxell (subscriber, #26385)Parent article: New Event Feature in MySQL 5.1.6 While I have built a number of large and small applications with various time-based event scheduling tables stored in an SQL database, including things like triggers that send asynchronous notifications to daemon clients to advise them to re-query for updated schedules, it never in my wildest imaginings occured to me to actually initiate execution autonomously from the database back end. This sounds like something that would be useful to a web hosting customer who has access to CGI and MySQL but nothing else, and wants to get access to cron the next time their ISP upgrades the database without reading the release notes first.
