The cause of the bug is that Item_func_in::fix_fields did not fully update its
used_table_cache. This was the cause for not_null_tables in setup_conds() to be
still 0 after the call
not_null_tables= (*conds)->not_null_tables();
As a result the condition in setup_conds()
if ( ... (table->table->map & not_null_tables) ...)
failed, which was the cause for the ON expression not to be added to conds, and later
the optimizer couldn't detect that it could apply the OUTER JOIN ==> JOIN optimization.
Added test case for bug #4256.
join_outer.result:
Fixed bug #4256.
item_cmpfunc.h:
Fixed inconsistency of values of used_tables_cache and
const_item_cache for Item_func_isnull objects.
This inconsistency caused bug #4256.
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)
Fixed inconsistency of values of used_tables_cache
and const_item_cache for Item_func_isnull objects (bug #1990).
item_cmpfunc.h:
Fixed inconsistency of values of used_tables_cache
and const_item_cache for Item_func_isnull objects (bug #1990).
Fixed compiler warnings (a lot of hidden variables detected by the Forte compiler)
Added a lot of 'version_xxx' strings to 'show variables'
Prevent copying of TMP_TABLE_PARAM (This caused core dump bug on Solaris)
Fixed problem with printing sub selects to debug log
The objects of this class represent multiple conjunctive equalities
in where conditions: =(f1,f2,...fn) <=> f1=f2 and f2= ... and =fn.
The objects are used to generate new possibale paths to access
the tables when executing a query.
They are also used to optimize the execution plan
chosen by the optimizer for the query.
New multi-key-cache handling. This was needed becasue the old one didn't work reliable with MERGE tables.
ALTER TABLE table_name ... CHARACTER SET ... now changes all char/varchar/text columns to the given character set
(One must use ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ... to change the default character set)
Fixed that have_compress is detected properly (fixes problems with func_compress.test on platforms without zlib)
New syntax for CACHE INDEX ('keys' is optional if no index name is given and one mentions the key cache name only ones)
Removed compiler warnings
Added mysql_set_server_option() to allow clients like PHP to easaily set/reset the multi-statement flag.
