49 Signature for the check function
50
51 This is called to check if the value supplied is valid and can be set
52 as a new variable value at that time.
53 It needs to extract the value supplied from the value API pointer.
54 Note that extracting this value can be expensive (e.g. a scalar subquery)
55 hence it should be done only once. This is why the result of this should
56 be stored into the save output parameter so that it can be further reused by
57 update() etc.
58 For a multi-variable SET statement the server will first call all of the
59 check functions and only if they all return success it will start calling the
60 update functions.
61 So the idea is that the update function should succeed no matter what.
62 And all the necessary checks should be done in the check function.
63 If you do not supply a check or update function the server will use the basic
64 ones to check e.g. min and max values for the integer types etc.
65
66 @param thd The thread handle to the current thread
67 @param var handle to the system variable definition
68 @param[out] save placeholder for the value. This should be cast according to

233
234 The variable registered is then accessible in SQL as "SELECT
235 component_name.name" The variable registration needs a global of the relevant
236 type that stores the value.
237
238 To define a new variable you need to:
239 1. Decide on a variable type among one of the
240 @ref group_components_services_sys_var_service_types
241 2. Decide on attributes of the type among one of the
242 @ref group_components_services_sys_var_service_flags
243 3. Declare a local variable placeholder matching the type using one of the
244 @ref group_components_services_sys_var_service_args macros.
245 4. Fill in the placeholder values (min, max, default etc) as appropriate for
246 the selected type.
247 5. Provide storage for the variable value: usually a global variable of the
248 relevant type.
249 6. Call the function with all of the above to register the system variable.
250
251 @warning: Make sure to unregister the system variable when you no longer
252 intend to have it or when your component deinitializes. Failure to do so will
253 lead to resource leaks and crashes.
