R: sql_quote_show and SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE etc

 

Maybe we could write in the KB that the name quoting is not reliable for SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE, FUNCTION, TRIGGER statements?

 The SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE, SHOW
 CREATE FUNCTION and SHOW CREATE TRIGGER articles were
 documented with the change:
 
 The output of these statements is not affected by the
 sql_quote_show_create server system variable.
 (see for example https://kb.askmonty.org/en/show-create-procedure/revision/18704/18357/)
 
 I've reverted this, as this is not strictly-speaking true.
 The output is unreliably affected by the variable. In my
 testing, the output of ALL procedures was quoted when the
 MOST RECENT procedure was created with sql_quote_show=1, and
 the output of all was unquoted when the most recent
 procedure was created with sql_quote_show=0.
 
 A related bug is:
 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=12719
 but that bug report doesn't fully explain the (current)
 situation. The bug was also noted as "can't fix" in the
 comments.
 
 I didn't want to document the above without further testing
 (will the quoted status of functions being created affect
 procedures? Triggers? Events?), so just reverted for now,
 but it's worth further investigating.
