## For MySQL

### Multi threaded environment

If MySQL client was not compiled with the `--enable-thread-safe-client` flag, then the database provider will only allow connections to be opened from the thread which initializes Libgda. Otherwise there is no limitation.

### Statements execution

- It is not possible to execute a SELECT statement with invalid parameters and with the GDA_STATEMENT_MODEL_ALLOW_NOPARAM flag as this feature is currently not implemented.

### Timezone information

Timezone information associated with time and timestamp data types is not stored by MySQL, so when executing statements all the variables containing a time or timestamp information are converted to GMT (timezone 0) before the execution happens. The consequence is that for example if a variable holds the "11:23:55+2" time (11 hours, 23 minutes and 55 seconds, at GMT + 2), then the actual time stored in the database will be "09:23:55", the same time but GMT.
