Problem #1: INSERT...SELECT, Version for 5.1.
Extended the unique table check by a check of lock data.
Merge sub-tables cannot be detected by doing name checks only.
The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
The problem was an ab-use of last_rkey_length.
Formerly we saved the packed key length (of the search key)
in this element. But in certain cases it got replaced by
the (packed) result key length.
Now we use a new element of MI_INFO to save the packed key
length of the search key.
After review version.
Added a condition for MERGE tables. These do not have unique
indexes. But every key could be a unique key on the underlying
MyISAM table. So get the maximum key length for MERGE tables
instead of the maximum unique key length. This is used for
buffer allocation in write_record().
Changed my_error() to print error messages, which come from
arbitrary registered ranges of error messages. Messages can
be unregistered (and should be at end of the program).
Added registration of handler error messages.
Added a new mi_print_error() macro and a new
mi_report_error() function, which supply error
messages with a table name.
Added calls to mi_print_error() or mi_report_error()
at all places in MyISAM, where table corruption is detected.
Changed timestamp to return string in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format.
DATE_ADD() and related functions now returns correct DATE/DATETIME type depending on argument types.
Now all tests passes, still some work left to remove warnings in log files from mysql-test-run
merge.test - it was missed in the previous commit :(
manual.texi:
fixed bad auto-merge of OLAP manual
Docs/Makefile.am:
removed ../MIRROR target (mirror list is no longer in the manual)
Remember UNION for ALTER TABLE
Added test for if we are supporting transactions.
Don't allow REPLACE to replace a row when we have generated an auto_increment key
Fixed bug when using BLOB keys
Fixed bug in SET @variable=user.
