When the new CSV output mode with the concept of "output drivers" was added in #92, dumping
TRIGGER
definitions was made an implementation detail of the MySQL output driver. This causedTRIGGER
definitions to be dumped right after theCREATE TABLE ...
commands, before the actual dataINSERT
statements.This potentially breaks the generated SQL files, since a newly created trigger may be relevant for the subsequent
INSERT
statements; however, MySQL requires that tables used in the trigger are also included in theLOCK TABLES
statements.The aim of this PR is to revert that change, i. e. to dump trigger definitions for a table after the data insert statements for it.
I think it is not necessary to move all trigger definitions to the very end of the output – that is, after all tables have been created and filled with data: A trigger depends on insert/update/deletes for a particular table and is executed only on these events. So, it is not a problem if a trigger refers to a table that has not been created/loaded yet as long as the trigger is not run (and avoiding to run it is the aim of this PR).
