INTO clause can be specified only for the last select of a UNION and it
receives the result of the whole query. But it was wrongly allowed in
non-last selects of a UNION which leads to a confusing query result.
Now INTO allowed only in the last select of a UNION.
construct references invalid name.
Derived tables currently cannot use outer references.
Thus there is no outer context for them.
The 4.1 code takes this fact into account while the
Item_field::fix_outer_field code of 5.0 lost the check that blocks
any attempts to resolve names in outer context for derived tables.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function creates Field_datetime
object instead of Field_timestamp object for timestamp field thus always
changing data type is a tmp table is used.
The Field_blob object constructor which is used in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() is always setting packlength field of
newly created blob to 4. This leads to changing fields data type for example
from the blob to the longblob if a temporary table is used.
The Item::make_string_field() function always converts Field_string objects
to Field_varstring objects. This leads to changing data type from the
char/binary to varchar/varbinary.
Added appropriate Field_timestamp object constructor for using in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function.
Added Field_blob object constructor which sets pack length according to
max_length argument.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now creates
Field_timestamp object for a timestamp field.
The Item_type_holder::display_length() now returns correct NULL length NULL
length.
The Item::make_string_field() function now doesn't change Field_string to
Field_varstring in the case of Item_type_holder.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now uses the Field_blob
constructor which sets packlength according to max_length.
This was only demonstrated by the use of PASSWORD(), it was not related to
that function at all. The calculation of the size of a field in the results
of a UNION did not take into account the possible growth of a string field
when being converted to the aggregated character set.
resulted in a wrong error message.
The nest_level counter indicates the depth of nesting for a subselect. It is
needed to properly resolve aggregate functions in nested subselects. Obviously
it shouldn't be incremented for UNION parts because they have the same level of
nesting. This counter was incremented by 1 in the mysql_new_select() function
for any new select and wasn't decremented for UNION parts. This resulted in
wrongly reported error messages.
Now the nest_level counter is decremented by 1 for any union part.
union.result, union.test:
Adding test case.
item.cc:
Allow safe character set conversion in UNION
- string constant to column's charset
- to unicode
Thus, UNION now works the same with CONCAT (and other string functions)
in respect of aggregating arguments with different character sets.
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
Results for the above test case
union.test:
A test case for bug #10032 involving UNION's and ORDER BY clause
sql_yacc.yy:
Fix for a bug #10032 involving a parser bug with UNION's and ORDER BY
fixing tests accordingly
item.cc:
Allow mixing non-binary collation and binary collation
even if coercibility is the same.
For easier 4.0 -> 4.1 migrating.
New mysqltest that can run mysqltest with PS
Added support for ZEROFILL in PS
Fixed crash when one called mysql_stmt_store_result() without a preceding mysql_stmt_bind_result()
Updated test cases to support --ps-protocol
(Some tests are still run using old protocol)
Fixed crash in PS when using SELECT * FROM t1 NATURAL JOIN t2...
Fixed crash in PS when using sub queries
Create table didn't signal when table was created. This could cause a "DROP TABLE created_table" in another thread to wait "forever"
Fixed wrong permissions check in PS and multi-table updates (one could get permission denied for legal quries)
Fix for PS and SELECT ... PROCEDURE
Reset all warnings when executing a new PS query
group_concat(...ORDER BY) didn't work with PS
Fixed problem with test suite when not using innodb
