- Type casting was not consequent, thus when adding a DATE type with
a WEEK interval the result type was DATETIME and not DATE as is the
norm.
- By changing the order of the date internal enumerations the deviant
type casting is resolved (Item_date_add_interval::fix_length_and_dec()
which determines result type for this operation assumes that addition
of any interval with value <= INTERVAL_DAY to date value will result
in date). There are two independant places to change:
interval_names[] and interval_type.
Changed test for functions if they are supported.
3 categories:
1) Fully supported
2) Supported for single character collations
3) Supported for binary collations
can lead to a wrong result.
All date/time functions has the STRING result type thus their results are
compared as strings. The string date representation allows a user to skip
some of leading zeros. This can lead to wrong comparison result if a date/time
function result is compared to such a string constant.
The idea behind this bug fix is to compare results of date/time functions
and data/time constants as ints, because that date/time representation is
more exact. To achieve this the agg_cmp_type() is changed to take in the
account that a date/time field or an date/time item should be compared
as ints.
This bug fix is partially back ported from 5.0.
The agg_cmp_type() function now accepts THD as one of parameters.
In addition, it now checks if a date/time field/function is present in the
list. If so, it tries to coerce all constants to INT to make date/time
comparison return correct result. The field for the constant coercion is
taken from the Item_field or constructed from the Item_func. In latter case
the constructed field will be freed after conversion of all constant items.
Otherwise the result is same as before - aggregated with help of the
item_cmp_type() function.
From the Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec() function removed the part
which was converting date/time constants to int if possible. Now this is
done by the agg_cmp_type() function.
The new function result_as_longlong() is added to the Item class.
It indicates that the item is a date/time item and result of it can be
compared as int. Such items are date/time fields/functions.
Correct val_int() methods are implemented for classes Item_date_typecast,
Item_func_makedate, Item_time_typecast, Item_datetime_typecast. All these
classes are derived from Item_str_func and Item_str_func::val_int() converts
its string value to int without regard to the date/time type of these items.
Arg_comparator::set_compare_func() and Arg_comparator::set_cmp_func()
functions are changed to substitute result type of an item with the INT_RESULT
if the item is a date/time item and another item is a constant. This is done
to get a correct result of comparisons like date_time_function() = string_constant.
Conversion from int and real numbers to UCS2 didn't work fine:
CONVERT(100, CHAR(50) UNICODE)
CONVERT(103.9, CHAR(50) UNICODE)
The problem appeared because numbers have binary charset, so,
simple charset recast binary->ucs2 was performed
instead of real conversion.
Fixed to make numbers pretend to be non-binary.
Before the interval expression was considered to be in seconds, now it is
just a number and the type of interval is considered.
- this changeset introduces also fix for bug#16432 (Events: error re interval
misrepresents the facts)
the code of event_timed::set_interval() was refactored anyway so it is meaningful to
fix the bug in the same changeset.
The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
"Item_date_add_interval needs to have the int_type member as Public".
As explained in the bug report, this change is is to help http://search.cpan.org/~philips/DBIx-MyParse-0.20/
So please keep those members public.
Removed wrong fix for bug #14009 (use of abs() on null value causes problems with filesort)
Mark that add_time(), time_diff() and str_to_date() can return null values
view being created.
Item_func_timestamp_diff::func_name() were returning function name as
"timestamp_diff" thus when view was executed function parameters wasn't
properly recognized and error was raised.
length.
When temporary field created for DATE(LEFT(column,8)) expression, max_length
value is taken from Item_date_typecast, and it is getting it from underlaid
Item_func_left and it's max_length is 8 in given expression. And all this
results in stripping last 2 digits.
To Item_date_typecast class added its own fix_length_and_dec() function
that sets max_length value to 10, which is proper for DATE field.
does not work well together". Now using simplier and more correct
implementation of st_lex::unlink_first_table()/link_first_table_back()
(It also nicely handles case when global table list is created because
of implictly used time zone tables). (2nd attempt)
Fix for bug #7705 "CONVERT_TZ() crashes with subquery/WHERE on index
column". Implemented new approach for caching objects for constant
time zone arguments. Now instead of determining whenever these arguments
are constants and performing time zone lookup at fix_fields() stage, we
do it on first get_date() invocation.
Cleanup of global @@time_zone variable handling.
