(IN() remove NULL rows only for tables from first argument (value which we looking for in IN() list) but not for tables from IN() list)
Also it will be better change Item::not_null_tables() to prohibit this optimisation by default for new created items in 5.0 or 5.1.
The problem: base_list::remove didn't modify base_list::last when removing
the last list element.
The fix: If we remove the last element, find the element before it (by walking
from the beginning of the list) and set base_list::last accordingly.
The list gets corrupted in both 4.0 and 4.1. There are no visible problems in
current 4.1 because current 4.1 doesn't call where_cond->fix_fields() after
constant propagation step.
The reported problems were due to two completely unrelated omissions.
1) The file sort procedure didn't correctly create the sort key in
make_sortkey when the sortkey was an unsigned integer.
2) The name resolution procedure for column references inside a HAVING
clause did not propagate the unsigned_flag of the resolved references.
This patch corrects both problems.
Added a test case for bug #7098.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #7098.
When a string field was substituted for an equal constant
the collation of the constant was changed by mistake for
the binary collation.
Added a test case for bug #7520.
table.cc:
Fixed bug #7520.
The bug was caused by a wrong calculation of the field max_key_length for
a TABLE structure when there was an index on a blob field.
Added a test case for bug #5333.
null_key.result, key_primary.result:
Made covering index usable for const tables.
sql_select.cc:
Made covering index usable for const tables:
downported the corresponding code from 4.1.
Simultaneously fixed bug #5333 reported for 4.1.
The bug was due to the fact that field index in join
structures was always set to 0 for const tables.
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.
<monty> ramil, in MySQL/MyISAM we should only strip end space, not 'space-like' characters.
<monty> This is according to SQL; When doing a comparision end space and only end space are ignored.
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
Fix for LEFT/RIGHT/MID with multi-byte-character sets (bug 314)
Fix for new bison 1.875
max_insert_delayed_threads and delayed_insert_timeout now works as documented (bug 211)
Don't show port in SHOW PROCESSLIST for system threads
Fix problem with ORDER BY being discarded for some DISTINCT queries (bug 275)
Fixed bug with NATURAL LEFT JOIN, NATURAL RIGHT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN when
using many joined tables (Bug 212)
