not default_charset_into. It fixes the
problem that in some cases numbers where
treated as CHAR(N), not as BINARY(N), e.g.
wrong 'charsetnr' when sent to the client side.
2. IFNULL didn't aggregate argument charsets
and collations, so IFNULL(1,'a') produced
a CHAR(N). Now produces a BINARY(N).
3. SELECT PROCEDURE ANALIZE now returns
BINARY columns, which is much better than it worked
previously: CHAR with the default character set.
But in the future it's worth to fix the fields
'Field_name' and 'Optimal_fieldtype' to use UTF8,
and 'Min_value' and 'Max_value' to inherit their charsets
from the original items. But it is not important,
and BINARY(N) is OK for now.
4. Tests were fixed accordingly. No new tests were
made, as the old onces cover everything.
Add support for VARCHAR with 1 or 2 length bytes
Enable VARCHAR packing in MyISAM files (previous patch didn't pack data properly)
Give error if we got problems in temporary tables during a SELECT
Don't use new table generated by ALTER TABLE if index generation fails
Fixed wrong call by range_end() (Could cause an ASSERT in debug mode)
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
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
More tests.
Better error messages.
Fixed bug when checking if we updated all needed columns for INSERT.
Give an error if we encounter a wrong float value during parsing.
Don't print DEFAULT for columns without a default value in SHOW CREATE/SHOW FIELDS.
Fixed UPDATE IGNORE when using STRICT mode.
if possible"
- many new test cases
- more and improved comments
New files: t/ps_7ndb.test test suite for NDB tables
r/ps_7ndb.result expected results
include/ps_conv.inc conversion test cases
+ review comments and fixes.
Use 'mysqltest' as test database instead of test_$1 or test1,test2 to not accidently delete an important database
Safety fix for mailformed MERGE files
Note: The following tests fails
- fulltext (Sergei has promised to fix)
- rpl_charset (Guilhem should fix)
- rpl_timezone (Dimitray has promised to fix)
Sanja needs to check out the calling of close_thread_tables() in sp_head.cc
