* Provide backwards compatibility extension to name resolution of
coalesced columns. The patch allows such columns to be qualified
with a table (and db) name, as it is in 4.1.
Based on a patch from Monty.
* Adjusted tests accordingly to test both backwards compatible name
resolution of qualified columns, and ANSI-style resolution of
non-qualified columns.
For this, each affected test has two versions - one with qualified
columns, and one without.
"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
Fixed bug #12144.
Added an optimization that avoids key access with null keys for the 'ref'
method when used in outer joins. The regilar optimization with adding
IS NOT NULL expressions is not applied for outer join on expressions as
the predicates of these expressions are not pushed down in 4.1.
null_key.result, null_key.test:
Added a test case for bug #12144.
More tests.
Better error messages.
Fixed bug when checking if we updated all needed columns for INSERT.
Give an error if we encounter a wrong float value during parsing.
Don't print DEFAULT for columns without a default value in SHOW CREATE/SHOW FIELDS.
Fixed UPDATE IGNORE when using STRICT mode.
Fixed (together with Guilhem) bugs in mysqlbinlog regarding --offset
Prefix addresses with 0x for easier comparisons of debug logs
Fixed problem where MySQL choosed index-read even if there would be a much better range on the same index
This fix changed some 'index' queries to 'range' queries in the test suite
Don't create 'dummy' WHERE clause for trivial WHERE clauses where we can remove the WHERE clause.
This fix removed of a lot of 'Using where' notes in the test suite.
Give NOTE instead of WARNING if table/function doesn't exists when using DROP IF EXISTS
Give NOTE instead of WARNING for safe field-type conversions
If cost(full_scan_on_shortest_covering_index) < cost(best_range_scan) < cost(full_table_scan)
use full_scan_on_shortest_covering_index
(before this fix best_range_scan was used)
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
Added bug fix from 3.23 for AIX 4.3.3 and gcc 3.x
Small change in EXCHANGE output
Propagate open-files-limit from mysqld_safe -> mysqld
Fixed speed bug in GROUP BY
