Subject: Re: how to get production (non-debug) binaries for win32? - msg#00220

I think you're mistaken. In my C:\mysql, I have several different
executables, exactly according to the following from the 4.1.1-alpha doc:

QUOTE
2.1.1.4 Selecting a Windows Server
Starting with MySQL 3.23.38, the Windows distribution includes both the
normal and the MySQL-Max server binaries. Here is a list of the different
MySQL servers from which you can choose:

Binary Description
mysqld Compiled with full debugging and automatic memory allocation
checking, symbolic links, and InnoDB and BDB tables.
mysqld-opt Optimised binary. From version 4.0 on, InnoDB is enabled.
Before 4.0, this server includes no transactional table support.
mysqld-nt Optimised binary for NT/2000/XP with support for named
pipes.
mysqld-max Optimised binary with support for symbolic links, and
InnoDB and BDB tables.
mysqld-max-nt Like mysqld-max, but compiled with support for named
pipes.

All of the preceding binaries are optimised for modern Intel processors but
should work on any Intel i386-class or higher processor.

There is more information than I have quoted here.

HTH, G.
