Dear MySQL users, The MySQL developer tools team announces 6.1 Beta 2 - the start of the public beta testing phase of MySQL Workbench 6.1 MySQL Workbench 6.1 is the upcoming major update for the official MySQL graphical development tool. Introducing over 30 new features, this version has many significant enhancement focusing on real-time performance assessment and analysis from the SQL statement level to server internals and file IO. You'll see this in additions to the SQL Editor as well as new dashboard visualization and reporting that takes advantage of MySQL Server 5.6 and 5.7 Performance Schema, and enhancements to the MySQL Explain Plans. Additionally Workbench 6.1 this leveraging work from various teammates in MySQL Engineering in introducing a schema called "SYS" that provides simplified views on Performance Schema, Information Schema, and other areas. Special thanks to the server optimizer team, server runtime team, and Mark Leith. For Oracle DBAs MySQL SYS is similar to the V$ catalog views and MSSQL folks its like DMVs (Dynamic Management Views). MySQL Workbench 6.1 includes: * Improved drag and drop support in the Home screen and SQL Editor * Visual Explain 2. The Visual Explain feature was revamped is now easier to read and interpret. You can also get the traditional tabular explain output from within the same interface. * Performance Dashboard. A graphical representation of some key statistics from the server status, gives you a bird's eye view of the status of key server subsystems. * For advanced users, Performance Schema Instrumentation. A GUI for making configuring the Performance Schema in detail, for advanced users. * Performance Schema based reporting. Gives insight into the operation of the server through many high-level reports. * New query result view. Get more information about queries you execute, such as information about the fields in your result set and key peformance statistics from your query (timing, index usage, number of rows scanned, joins etc). * Form Editor for resultsets. In addition to the result grid, you can now edit records row by row in a form style editor. * Table Inspector. Similar to the Schema Inspector, view detailed information from tables. A streamlined interface for creating indexes is also included. * Support for the Windows accessibility API and a new High contrast color theme in Windows. * And more. More than 60 enhancement requests and bugs reported by users have also been addressed, providing performance, usability and stability improvements across the board.

Changes in MySQL Workbench 6.1.2 (2014-03-04) Functionality Added or Changed * The ability to select multiple processes in the Client Connections table was added. (Bug #18043979) * When an error is generated while synchronizing a model to a database, the statement causing the error is now displayed alongside the generated error. (Bug #13702410, Bug #64208) * Create Model from SQL Script with Place imported objects on a diagram checked now prompts to configure the diagram dimensions, which is especially useful when a lot of objects are imported. (Bug #11764060, Bug #56848) * The validation routine now checks whether a column referred to by an FK has the same character set as the source column. (Bug #11749091, Bug #38136) Bugs Fixed * On Mac OS X, general stability improvements were made to the codebase. (Bug #18132375, Bug #71473) * The Visual Explain feature did not function with MySQL Server 5.7. (Bug #18141803, Bug #71464) * Data Export could only be opened once per session. If the connection was closed and reconnected, then it would work again (but only once). (Bug #18149809, Bug #71506) * Executing a DROP from within the UI (via right-click on a database in the schema navigator) would cause the UI to freeze while the DROP operation was executed. (Bug #18123337, Bug #71457) * A MEB backup could not be scheduled for December 31. (Bug #18019619) * Dropping a schema that had non-committed or reverted transactions could crash MySQL Workbench, but now the drop statement is executed as a user command so it can be aborted. (Bug #18054944, Bug #71327) * After editing an SQL file from outside of MySQL Workbench that was also open inside MySQL Workbench, a refresh would update a different (wrong) SQL editor tab in MySQL Workbench. (Bug #18051499, Bug #71321) * Sorting by a column would sort the data starting with uppercase characters first, before sorting the lower case strings. The sorting algorithm now behaves like a typical ORDER BY clause, which does not prioritize uppercase characters. (Bug #17993866, Bug #71195) * On Mac OS X, executing Synchronize Database could crash MySQL Workbench. (Bug #18000412, Bug #71203) * On Mac OS X, Command + F did not open a search box in the SQL editor. (Bug #18055066, Bug #71326) * Having SQL_MODE set to "MYSQL40" would not allow the ALTER TABLE action to create new columns in MySQL Workbench. (Bug #18055044, Bug #64741) * On Mac OS X, the auto completion popup window remained open after reopening MySQL Workbench. (Bug #17799326, Bug #70912) * MySQL Workbench would freeze when the connected MySQL server stopped responding, when the context help was running. (Bug #17667094) * On Microsoft Windows, increased support for "High Contrast" modes was added. (Bug #17694247, Bug #70750) * The SQL editor could lose newline characters. The new forms editor is useful for this type of input, as the newlines are preserved. (Bug #17559560, Bug #70519) * After creating two tables with an n:m relationship, attempting to create an n:m identifying relationship between the two tables would yield a misleading prompt that read "Select the Table to receive the Foreign Key." (Bug #17449878, Bug #67864) * The Search Table Data tool would fail to function when used to search multiple schemas. (Bug #17404072, Bug #70232) * While executing Database, Synchronize Model..., adding a ROW_FORMAT definition (such as "ROW_FORMAT = COMPACT;") would not add a valid ROW_FORMAT definition on the next execution of Synchronize Model..., and instead an invalid (empty) "ROW_FORMAT =" was added. (Bug #17454626, Bug #70129) * The diagram page size is now properly passed on to printer driver. For example, defining a diagram with an A3 page size now sends A3 to the printer driver, when before it reverted to A4. (Bug #17389155, Bug #70191) * On Microsoft Windows, the Indexes section would disappear after restoring (after an undo) a table change from the history tab. (Bug #17299519) * When executing Database, Synchronize with any source on a model, the model schema was unintentionally renamed when enabling the Override Target option. (Bug #17299799) * On Microsoft Windows, Control + V would not paste a copied diagram. (Bug #17299778) * Using Create EER Model from Script would sometimes close the model without defining a schema. (Bug #17299745) * Tables created with the n:m identifying relationship tool were missing the created timestamp. (Bug #17050577, Bug #69656) * On Linux, when closing a script tab that carried unsaved changes in the SQL editor, the model dialog that prompted to "save the script first" could become hidden behind the main MySQL Workbench window. (Bug #16672658, Bug #68802) * The Scripting file chooser would generate an exception (without an option to cancel) when an unsupported file type was selected. A new Cancel button was added to this dialog. (Bug #14520515, Bug #66453) * Selecting an element in a section (when the section was longer than the visible part of the overview panel) would scroll the view back up to the top of the panel, instead of preserving the current cursor focus. (Bug #14520978, Bug #66420) * The birds-eye image of the object canvas in the navigator view of the model sidebar did not always show the correct z-order, when objects overlapped on the canvas. (Bug #14456188) * Using a MySQL script that started with an empty line to create an EER diagram would generate an empty EER diagram. (Bug #14278179, Bug #65749) * When setting "On Delete" and "On Update" to "SET NULL" on Foreign Key fields that were marked as "NOT NULL", a generic "ERROR: Error 1005: Can't create table" error was emitted. The generated error is now more specific. (Bug #13029457, Bug #62464) * While creating a column with the serial data type generates a NOT NULL constraint with a UNIQUE INDEX for the column, MySQL Workbench would complain about a missing Primary Key. (Bug #11762455, Bug #55051) * When executing Database, Synchronize Model, the Model and Database Differences step now expands the folder of each database that contains differences. (Bug #11758101, Bug #50251) * Relationship lines now snap to the closest snap point, rather than the most recently passed-over snap point. (Bug #11755408, Bug #47178) On behalf of the MySQL Workbench and the MySQL/ORACLE RE Team. Hery Ramilison
