OPTIMIZE TABLE and REPAIR TABLE report rebuild errors as result rows. The surrounding transaction then commits the work completed before the error, leaving hidden tables or a partly rebuilt table.

This change makes each table administration operation atomic with an internal savepoint. A failed rebuild restores the original schema and data, while successful rebuilds of other tables are preserved.

Regression tests cover failures while copying rows, dropping the old table, and recreating indexes, including permanent and temporary tables, repeated failures, and mixed results. They also verify committed data when the command is issued inside a transaction.

Fixes #549.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Failed table maintenance operations, including OPTIMIZE and REPAIR, now roll back changes for the affected table. This helps preserve its schema and data after an error, including when an operation fails while recreating indexes or dropping a table.
    • When a statement affects multiple tables, successful operations can be retained while failed operations are rolled back individually.

Walkthrough

Each table-administration operation now uses a savepoint. When a PDOException occurs, the operation rolls back to that savepoint before returning its result. Tests cover OPTIMIZE and REPAIR failures, schema and data preservation, mixed outcomes, and transaction modes.

Changes: Table administration rollback

Layer / File(s) Summary
Per-table savepoint handling
packages/mysql-on-sqlite/src/sqlite/class-wp-mysql-on-sqlite.php
Each table operation opens a savepoint, rolls back to it after a PDOException, and releases it after handling the operation.
Failure and preservation tests
packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Metadata_Tests.php
Tests cover failed OPTIMIZE and REPAIR operations, failed drops, index recreation failures, mixed rebuild outcomes, and permanent and temporary tables. They check schema, data, indexes, temporary tables, and transaction state.

OPTIMIZE TABLE and REPAIR TABLE can fail for tables referenced by foreign keys. Address this bounded regression before merging, or explicitly accept the limitation.

Explanation

Issue #549 requires failed OPTIMIZE TABLE and REPAIR TABLE rebuilds to leave the table and database unchanged, including cleanup of temporary rebuild tables and preservation of indexes. The implementation creates a savepoint for each table operation, rolls back on PDOException, and then reports the error row. The added metadata tests cover both operations, permanent and temporary tables, copy, drop, and index-recreation failures, repeated failures, mixed success and failure, schema and data preservation, sequence preservation, and transaction outcomes.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes are limited to savepoint handling in execute_administration_statement and regression tests in WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Metadata_Tests.php. The implementation and tests directly support issue #549. No unrelated behavior or files are identified in the supplied pull request summary.
