+# mysqldump.inc
+#
+# SUMMARY: include file to facilitate testing the quality of mysqldump output
+#
+# INPUTS:  Two variables:
+#          $table_name - the name of the table that was dumped
+#          $mysqldumpfile - the name of the file that captured mysqldump output
+#
+# OUTPUTS: minor echo data:
+#          We 'echo' some stage information to the .result file:
+#          'altering original table', 'restoring from dumpfile', 'comparing'
+#
+# OTHER FILES:  We use include/diff_tables.inc to compare the original, renamed
+#               table with the 'restored' one. 
+#
+# DESCRIPTION: This file works by being fed the name of the original table
+#              and a mysqldump output file.  The original table is then renamed
+#              to <table_name>_orig, the mysqldump file is used to recreate the
+#              table, then diff_tables.inc is called to compare them.
+#
+# LIMITATIONS:  Does *NOT* work with xml output!
+#

+#                Bug#40465 mysqldump.test does no checking of dump or restore
