I created a Database, a table and inserted some data, and found this binlog.0000001 in my log folder, but when I do mysqlbinlog binlog.0000001, it only shows stuff below, seems incomplete: (There's only two files in the log dir: binlog.000001 binlog.index)
/*!40019 SET @@session.max_insert_delayed_threads=0*/;
/*!50003 SET @OLD_COMPLETION_TYPE=@@COMPLETION_TYPE,COMPLETION_TYPE=0*/;

If this warning was the cause: Warning: this binlog is either in use or was not closed properly..
How do I force close the log?
EDIT
After flush logs command, I see "0 rows" affected, and a few new files, binlog.000001 binlog.000002 binlog.000003 binlog.000004 binlog.index, the contents are nearly the same as binlog.000001.
Now I dropped the database, and try restore it with mysqlbinlog binlog.0* | mysql -u root -p, but the database wasn't recovered.
