result" (and similar bug in ADDTIME/SUBTIME).
Both Item_func_add_time/Item_func_timediff::val_str() now use
calc_time_diff() function which was backported from 5.0 (and which
was was fixed to properly handle microseconds part of its second
argument). Also now we correctly set sign of result in case when
first argument is negative and second is positive.
Under strict mode MySQL will generate an error message if there was any conversion when assigning data to a field.
Added checking of date/datetime fields.
If strict mode, give error if we have not given value to field without a default value (for INSERT)
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.
