* Provide backwards compatibility extension to name resolution of
coalesced columns. The patch allows such columns to be qualified
with a table (and db) name, as it is in 4.1.
Based on a patch from Monty.
* Adjusted tests accordingly to test both backwards compatible name
resolution of qualified columns, and ANSI-style resolution of
non-qualified columns.
For this, each affected test has two versions - one with qualified
columns, and one without.
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
Fixed bug #12154: a query returned: Column <name> cannot be null.
The problem was due to a bug in the function setup_table_map:
the flag maybe_null was set up incorrectly for inner tables of
nested outer joins.
join_nested.result, join_nested.test:
Added a test case for bug #12154.
Added a teast case for bug #11284.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #11284.
Optimization with empty inner table currently cannot be
used in the case of nested outer join.
FOUND is not a reserved keyword anymore
Added Item_field::set_no_const_sub() to be able to mark fields that can't be substituted
Added 'simple_select' method to be able to quickly determinate if a select_result is a normal SELECT
Note that the 5.0 tree is not yet up to date: Sanja will have to fix multi-update-locks for this merge to be complete
Added the code processing on expressions for applying
multiple equalities.
sql_select.cc:
Post-merge fixes for Item_equal patch.
Added the code processing on expressions for applying
multiple equalities.
Many files:
Post-merge fixes for Item_equal patch.
item_cmpfunc.cc:
Post-merge fixes for Item_equal patch.
Fixed a problem when an equality field=const cannot be applied to
the predicate P(field,c) for constant propagation as a conversion
of field is needed.
item.h, item.cc:
Fixed a problem when an equality field=const cannot be applied to
the predicate P(field,c) for constant propagation as a conversion
of field is needed.
Added a case for bug #4976 when one of the inner tables is empty.
select.result, join.result:
Reversed the previous change of the erronious fix for bug #4976.
sql_select.cc:
The previous fix for bug 4976 was reversed as it
erroniously converted an outer join into an innner join
when on_expression does not refer to outer tables.
This is not valid if inner tables return an empty set.
Setting dependency on outer tables was added for the above cases.
To fix the crash in the test case of bug #4976
a guard was added that blocks running the crashing code for
nested outer joins.
Fixed bug #4976.
join_nested.result, join_nested.test:
Added a test case for bug #4976.
sql_select.cc:
Applied conversion from an outer join to an inner join
when the on expression does not depend on the outer table.
It fixed bug #4976.
Added a test case for bug #4922.
sql_select.cc:
Blocked an optimization performed by join_read_const_table when
applied to an inner table of a nested outer join.
It was done to fix bug #4922.
sql_yacc.yy:
Fixed a typo bug in the rule for join_table.
Post-merge fixes for nested joins.
The join_tab_cmp function in sql_select has been changed.
join_nested.result:
Post-merge fixes for nested joins.
The join_tab_cmp function in sql_select has been changed
sql_select.cc:
Post-merge fixes for nested joins.
Avoided re-execution of eliminate_not_funcs and simplify_joins
in optimize_cond.
Changed the join_tab_cmp function to take into account
the dependent relation.
sql_lex.cc, sql_lex.h:
Added the first_cond_optimization flag to st_select_lex to avoid
re-execution of some optimizations in optimize_cond.
sql_base.cc:
Post-merge fixes for nested joins.
Fixed problems with a proper column list substituted for '*' in
queries with natural joins.
