I am actually a little surprised by this, and I may be wrong in the understanding of the DB structure, but it seems to me that all the data in fud30_group_cache is already contained in other tables, so why isn't it a view?

FUDforum predates views in MySQL. If this table can be change this to a view, you are more than welcome to prepare a patch.

I am about to patch the source tree, I would just have a few other heads check my view formulation

-- GROUP LEADERS 
SELECT gm.user_id, gr.resource_id, gm.group_id, 
    BIT_OR( gm.group_members_opt ) AS group_cache_opts
  FROM fud30_group_members gm 
  INNER JOIN fud30_group_resources gr
    ON gr.group_id=gm.group_id
  WHERE ( gm.group_members_opt>=65536 )
    AND ( gm.group_members_opt & 65536 ) > 0
    AND ( gm.group_members_opt & 131072 )
  GROUP BY user_id, resource_id, group_id
UNION
-- GROUP MEMBERS 
SELECT gm.user_id, gr.resource_id, gr.group_id, 
    BIT_AND( gm.group_members_opt ) AS group_cache_opts
  FROM fud30_group_members AS gm    
  INNER JOIN fud30_group_resources AS gr
    ON gr.group_id=gm.group_id
  WHERE ( gm.group_members_opt>=65536 )
    AND ( gm.group_members_opt & 65536 ) > 0
  GROUP BY user_id, resource_id, group_id;


By the way, the result generated by the statement above is different from fud30_group_cache: in fud30_group_cache, group_id is always 0, here it is set properly. I am not sure this is the correct behaviour, though, since the key of the caching seems to be (user_id, resource_id) independently of the group_id.

P.S. I am pretty sure this works for MySQL, but the syntax might need to be changed for other engines

Bitwise operations are not cross-database compatible.
You need to use q_bitand(), q_bitor() and q_bitnot().

I had imagined that much, I was more concerned about the correctnes of the query itself. I will check on my dev system ASAP, then make a patch.

Ok, so here's a big question: how the hell do I use q_bit*() in the sql/*.tpl files?
If I can't I'll need to put the view creation somewhere else.

We probably need to enhance the install & upgrade scripts to read the MySQL syntax from sql/*.tpl files and transform it into q_bit*() syntax before execution.

I have a patch ready with the q_bit syntax everyting, but it seems I have hit a problem with MySQL views.
The select statement works as expected but the view gives an error
ERROR 1356 (HY000): View 'fud_test.group_cache' references invalid table(s) or column(s) or function(s) or definer/invoker of view lack rights to use


I am filing a bug in a few minutes, let's see if there is any answer.

Ok, got response from MySql devs. It is a bug in MySql < 5.6.
What should I do regarding the patch? Shall I commit it, and then we change the system requirements?

EDIT:

Uhm... seems like 5.6 is the unstable branch, so I guess my patch will need to wait.

I suggest we create a new 'extra/patches' directory under trunk and submit it there.

We can later use this 'extra' directory for various other stuff, like 'extra/plugins', 'extra/themes', etc.
