Item_func_inet_ntoa and Item_func_conv inherit 'maybe_null' flag from an
argument, which is wrong.
Both can be NULL with notnull arguments, so that's fixed.
Since, as of MySQL 5.0.15, CHAR() arguments larger than 255 are converted into multiple result bytes, a single CHAR() argument can now take up to 4 bytes. This patch fixes Item_func_char::fix_length_and_dec() to take this into account.
This patch also fixes a regression introduced by the patch for bug21513. As now we do not always have the 'name' member of Item set for Item_hex_string and Item_bin_string, an own print() method has been added to Item_hex_string so that it could correctly be printed by Item_func::print_args().
represented by an expression of the type UNSIGNED INT and this
expression was evaluated to 0 then the function erroneously returned
the value of the first argument instead of an empty string.
This problem was introduced by the patch for bug 10963.
The problem has been resolved by a proper modification of the code of
Item_func_substr::val_str.
of its arguments was evaluated to NULL, while the predicate
LOCATE(str,NULL) IS NULL erroneously was evaluated to FALSE.
This happened because the Item_func_locate::fix_length_and_dec
method by mistake set the value of the maybe_null flag for
the function item to 0. In consequence of this the function
was considered as the one that could not ever return NULL.
The function CRC32() returns unsigned integer.
But the metadata (the unsigned flag) for the
function was set incorrectly.
As a result type arithmetics based on the
function's metadata (like finding the concise
type of an temporary table column to hold the result)
returned incorrect results.
Fixed by returning correct type information.
This fix is based on code contributed by Martin Friebe
(martin@hybyte.com) on 2007-03-30.
When the SUBSTRING() function was used over a LONGTEXT field the max_length of
the SUBSTRING() result was wrongly calculated and set to 0. As the max_length
parameter is used while tmp field creation it limits the length of the result
field and leads to printing an empty string instead of the correct result.
Now the Item_func_substr::fix_length_and_dec() function correctly calculates
the max_length parameter.
to return NULL for non-NULL arguments.
This is not the case as it can return NULL
for invalid hexidecimal strings.
Fixed by setting the maybe_null flag.
correctly.
The Item_func::print method was used to print the Item_func_encode and the
Item_func_decode objects. The last argument to ENCODE and DECODE functions
is a plain C string and thus Item_func::print wasn't able to print it.
The print() method is added to the Item_func_encode class. It correctly
prints the Item_func_encode and the Item_func_decode objects.
Handling of large signed/unsigned values was not consistent, so some string functions could return bogus results.
The current fix is to simply patch up the val_str() methods for those string items.
It would be good clean this code up in general, to make similar problems much harder to make. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
on large length
Problem: Most (all) of the numeric inputs were being coerced into
int (32 bit) sized variables. Works OK for sane inputs; any input
larger than 2^32 (or 2^31 for signed vars) exihibited predictable
wrapping behavior (up to about 10^18) and then started having really
strange behaviour past that point (since the conversion to 64 bit int
from the DECIMAL type can do weird things on out of range numbers).
Solution: 1) Add many tests. 2) Convert input from (u)long type to
(u)longlong. 3) Do (sometimes multiple) sanity checks on input,
keeping in mind that sometimes a negative longlong is not a negative
longlong (if the unsigned_flag is set). 4) Emulate existing behavior
w/rt negative and "small" out-of-bounds values.
strings
MySQL is setting the flag HA_END_SPACE_KEYS for all the keys that reference
text or varchar columns with collation different than binary.
This was done to handle correctly the situation where a lookup on such a key
may return more than 1 row because of the presence of many rows that differ
only by the amount of trailing space in the table's string column.
Inserting such values however appears to violate the unique checks on
INSERT/UPDATE. Thus that flag must not be set as it will prevent the optimizer
from choosing a faster access method.
This fix removes the setting of the HA_END_SPACE_KEYS flag.
equal constant under any circumstances.
In fact this substitution can be allowed if the field is
not of a type string or if the field reference serves as
an argument of a comparison predicate.
for class Item_func_trim.
For 4.1 it caused wrong output for EXPLAIN EXTENDED commands
if expressions with the TRIM function of two arguments were used.
For 5.0 it caused an error message when trying to select
from a view with the TRIM function of two arguments.
This unexpected error message was due to the fact that the
print method for the class Item_func_trim was inherited from
the class Item_func. Yet the TRIM function does not take a list
of its arguments. Rather it takes the arguments in the form:
[{BOTH | LEADING | TRAILING} [remstr] FROM] str) |
[remstr FROM] str

bug#11728 string function LEFT, strange undocumented behaviour
Fixing LEFT and RIGHT return NULL if the second
argument is NULL.
The implementation of the method Item_func_reverse::val_str
for the REVERSE function modified the argument of the function.
This led to wrong results for expressions that contained

argument can lead to a wrong result.
md5() and sha() functions treat their arguments as case sensitive strings.
But when they are compared their arguments were compared as a case
insensitive strings which leads to two functions with different arguments
and thus different results to being identical. This can lead to a wrong
decision made in the range optimizer and thus lead to a wrong result set.
Item_func_md5::fix_length_and_dec() and Item_func_sha::fix_length_and_dec()
functions now set binary collation on their arguments.
- CHAR() now returns binary string as default
- CHAR(X*65536+Y*256+Z) is now equal to CHAR(X,Y,Z) independent of the character set for CHAR()
- Test for both ETIMEDOUT and ETIME from pthread_cond_timedwait()
(Some old systems returns ETIME and it's safer to test for both values
than to try to write a wrapper for each old system)
- Fixed new introduced bug in NOT BETWEEN X and X
- Ensure we call commit_by_xid or rollback_by_xid for all engines, even if one engine has failed
- Use octet2hex() for all conversion of string to hex
- Simplify and optimize code
Ensure that ccache is also used for C programs
mysql: Ensure that 'delimiter' works the same way in batch mode as in normal mode
mysqldump: Change to use ;; (instead of //) as a stored procedure/trigger delimiter
Fixed test cases by adding missing DROP's and rename views to be of type 'v#'
Removed MY_UNIX_PATH from fn_format()
Removed current_db_used from TABLE_LIST
Removed usage of 'current_thd' in Item_splocal
Removed some compiler warnings
A bit faster longlong2str code
Corrected results after the fix for bug #12791.
func_test.result, func_test.test:
Added test cases for bug #12791.
item_func.h, item_func.cc:
Fixed bug #12791.
Made LEAST/GREATES fully Oracle compliant.
LEAST/GREATEST did not return NULL if only some
arguments were NULLs. This did not comply with Oracle.
