Hi all, MySQL has the neat feature of defining a table column to be a enumeration or set of a number of elements, e.g.:
create table person ( name varchar, sex enum('male', 'female') ) or: create table person ( name varchar, likes_fruits set('apple', 'pear','orange') ) I guess something like this can be emulated using user defined types. However, from reading the documentation I could not figure out how. Can anybody help me? Sören PS: Is the bug tracker and feature request database at sourceforge actually in use? If I use it, will somebody have a look at the stuff there every now and then?
