Description:
Beginning in 5.2.7, for some reason line 67 of StoredProcedure.cs is commented out in the release version (tags/5.2.7 in svn). This means that StoredProcedure.GetParameters(string) ignores the programmer's setting of UseProcedureBodies and forcibly uses the procedure bodies to determine the names of the parameters.

This will break any application for which the application's parameter names do not match the parameter names in the SP, resulting in an ArgumentException with message "Parameter 'foo' not found in the collection." and a stack trace like this:

 	System.Data.dll!System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(System.Data.DataSet dataSet, int startRecord, int maxRecords, string srcTable, System.Data.IDbCommand command, System.Data.CommandBehavior behavior) + 0x120 bytes	
 	System.Data.dll!System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(System.Data.DataSet dataSet) + 0x5f bytes	

How to repeat:
- Call a stored procedure for which the parameter names supplied do not match those in the stored procedure itself.

In 5.2.6 with UseProcedureBodies = true : failure
In 5.2.6 with UseProcedureBodies = false : success

In 5.2.7 with UseProcedureBodies = true : failure
In 5.2.7 with UseProcedureBodies = false : failure

Hi Yvan and thanks for your report.

Truly, I found this change in rev. 1594 but it is not clear to me why is it made. So I call upon Reggie and Wlad to explain and document it.
My guess would be it's related to:
Version 5.2.7
- fixed procedure parameters collection so that an exception is thrown if we can't get the parameters. Also used this to optimize the procedure cache optimization

This is fixed in 5.2.8, 6.0.5, and 6.1.1+

Entries were added to the 5.2.8, 6.0.5 and 6.1.1 changelogs:

The MySQL Connector/NET method StoredProcedure.GetParameters(string) ignored the programmer's setting of the UseProcedureBodies option. This broke any application for which the application's parameter names did not match the parameter names in the Stored Procedure, resulting in an ArgumentException with the message “Parameter 'foo' not found in the collection.” and the following stack trace:
