mclient backward compatibility
mclient Mar2018 is not really compatible with mserver5 Jul2017. Not a real issue for me, but I'm just curious: is mclient supposed to be compatible with an earlier release of mserver5 (at least the previous release)? $ mclient x -u monetdb password: Welcome to mclient, the MonetDB/SQL interactive terminal (Mar2018) Database: MonetDB v11.27.14 (unreleased), 'mapi:monetdb:// photon.hq.spinque.com:55500/x' Type \q to quit, \? for a list of available commands auto commit mode: on sql>-- \d silently fails (nothing dumped) sql>\d sql> sql>-- \d on a table doesn't find table comments (introduced in Mar2018) sql>\d tables SELECT: no such table 'comments' Shouldn't queries that rely on the system catalog be defined server-side?
Hmm.. I broke that when I merged the table comments code. I assume but am not sure that mclient is supposed to work with older mservers. If so I’ll fix it.
