Our mysql database specific module implements escaping methods and ddl
methods that are database specific. This version depends on MySQL 4.x
InnoDB to function. InnoDB foreign key constraints are heavily used to
maintain data integrity. Sometime in the future I might consider writing
the recursive delete code needed to support the lower versions of MySQL,
but as time passes, fewer and fewer MySQL installations without InnoDB
support will exist and the need for the code that supports those
installations will diminish.
| Known issues with MySQL serialization: | If primary keys are strings they cannot be more than 255 bytes long.
If class and instance variable names cannot exeed 255 chars in length.
