column types TIMESTAMP is NOT NULL by default, so in order to have
TIMESTAMP column holding NULL valaues you have to specify NULL as
one of its attributes (this needed for backward compatibility).
Main changes:
Replaced TABLE::timestamp_default_now/on_update_now members with
TABLE::timestamp_auto_set_type flag which is used everywhere
for determining if we should auto-set value of TIMESTAMP field
during this operation or not. We are also use Field_timestamp::set_time()
instead of handler::update_timestamp() in handlers.
Instead of trying to open time zone tables during calculation of CONVERT_TZ() function
or setting of @@time_zone variable we should open and lock them with the rest of
statement's table (so we should add them to global table list) and after that use such
pre-opened tables for loading info about time zones.
work (prepared statements)" and after-review fixes:
- str_to_TIME renamed to str_to_datetime to pair with str_to_time
- functions str_to_time and str_to_TIME moved to sql-common
- send_data_str now supports MYSQL_TYPE_TIME, MYSQL_TIME_DATE,
MYSQL_TIME_DATETIME types of user input buffers.
- few more comments in the client library
- a test case added.
more logical table/index_flags
return HA_ERR_WRONG_COMMAND instead of abstract methods where appropriate
max_keys and other limits renamed to max_supported_keys/etc
max_keys/etc are now wrappers to max_supported_keys/etc
ha_index_init/ha_rnd_init/ha_index_end/ha_rnd_end are now wrappers to real {index,rnd}_{init,end} to enforce strict pairing
by binlogging some SET ONE_SHOT CHARACTER_SETetc,
which will be enough until we have it more compact and more complete in 5.0. With the present patch,
replication will work ok between 4.1.3 master and slaves, as long as:
- master and slave have the same GLOBAL.COLLATION_SERVER
- COLLATION_DATABASE and CHARACTER_SET_DATABASE are not used
- application does not use the fact that table is created with charset of the USEd db (BUG#2326).
all of which are not too hard to fulfill.
ONE_SHOT is reserved for internal use of mysqlbinlog|mysql and works only for charsets,
so we give error if used for non-charset vars.
Fix for BUG#3875 "mysqlbinlog produces wrong ouput if query uses
variables containing quotes" and BUG#3943 "Queries with non-ASCII literals are not replicated
properly after SET NAMES".
Detecting that master and slave have different global charsets or server ids.
The code in mysql_create_table() code assumes that if lower_case_names==2 then table alias
should contain unchanged table name, and this was not true for temporary tables which
had 'tmp-table' constant as alias. Now we are using table name as alias for such tables.
