fixing test results accordingly.
func_system.test:
New test that illegal mix of collations does not happen anymore.
item_strfunc.h:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_strfunc.cc:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_func.cc, item.h, item.cc:
Bug#8291: Illegal collation mix with USER() function.
After discussion with PeterG and Serge, a new coercibility
level for "system constants" was introduced, between
COERRIBLE and IMPLICIT. Thus:
SELECT col1 = USER() FROM t1; - is done according to col1 collation.
SELECT 'string' = USER(); - is done according to USER() collation.
At the same time, "nagg" and "strong" members were removed as unused.
item_create.cc:
Version is a system constant too.
Instead of trying to open time zone tables during calculation of CONVERT_TZ() function
or setting of @@time_zone variable we should open and lock them with the rest of
statement's table (so we should add them to global table list) and after that use such
pre-opened tables for loading info about time zones.
Added basic per-thread time zone functionality (based on public
domain elsie-code). Now user can select current time zone
(from the list of time zones described in system tables).
All NOW-like functions honor this time zone, values of TIMESTAMP
type are interpreted as values in this time zone, so now
our TIMESTAMP type behaves similar to Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH
LOCAL TIME ZONE (or proper PostgresSQL type).
WL#1266 "CONVERT_TZ() - basic time with time zone conversion
function".
Fixed problems described in Bug #2336 (Different number of warnings
when inserting bad datetime as string or as number). This required
reworking of datetime realted warning hadling (they now generated
at Field object level not in conversion functions).
Optimization: Now Field class descendants use table->in_use member
instead of current_thd macro.
Cleaned up (and disabled part of) date/time/datetime format patch. One can't anymore change default read/write date/time/formats.
This is becasue the non standard datetime formats can't be compared as strings and MySQL does still a lot of datetime comparisons as strings
Changed flag argument to str_to_TIME() and get_date() from bool to uint
Removed THD from str_to_xxxx functions and Item class.
Fixed core dump when doing --print-defaults
Move some common string functions to strfunc.cc
Dates as strings are now of type my_charset_bin instead of default_charset()
Introduce IDENT_QUOTED to not have to create an extra copy of simple identifiers (all chars < 128)
Removed xxx_FORMAT_TYPE enums and replaced them with the old TIMESTAMP_xxx enums
Renamed some TIMESTAMP_xxx enums to more appropriate names
Use defines instead of integers for date/time/datetime string lengths
Added to build system and use the new my_strtoll10() function.
