Added basic per-thread time zone functionality (based on public
domain elsie-code). Now user can select current time zone
(from the list of time zones described in system tables).
All NOW-like functions honor this time zone, values of TIMESTAMP
type are interpreted as values in this time zone, so now
our TIMESTAMP type behaves similar to Oracle's TIMESTAMP WITH
LOCAL TIME ZONE (or proper PostgresSQL type).
WL#1266 "CONVERT_TZ() - basic time with time zone conversion
function".
Fixed problems described in Bug #2336 (Different number of warnings
when inserting bad datetime as string or as number). This required
reworking of datetime realted warning hadling (they now generated
at Field object level not in conversion functions).
Optimization: Now Field class descendants use table->in_use member
instead of current_thd macro.
character set introducer": add new item type to be returned before from
Item_param until it's value is set.
This way items like Item_bool_func2 and udf_handler won't treat this item
as constant literal when statement is prepared.
binlog even if they changed nothing, and a test for this.
This is useful when users use these commands to clean up their master and slave by issuing
one command on master (assume master and slave have slightly different data for some
reason and you want to clean up both).
Note that I have not changed multi-table DELETE and multi-table UPDATE because their
error-reporting mechanism is more complicated.
In mysqlbinlog, there was a problem with how we escaped the content of a string user variable.
To be perfect, we should have escaped with character_set_client. But this charset is unknown
to mysqlbinlog. So the simplest is to print the string in hex. This is unreadable but
100% safe with any charset (checked with Bar), no more need to bother with character_set_client.
by binlogging some SET ONE_SHOT CHARACTER_SETetc,
which will be enough until we have it more compact and more complete in 5.0. With the present patch,
replication will work ok between 4.1.3 master and slaves, as long as:
- master and slave have the same GLOBAL.COLLATION_SERVER
- COLLATION_DATABASE and CHARACTER_SET_DATABASE are not used
- application does not use the fact that table is created with charset of the USEd db (BUG#2326).
all of which are not too hard to fulfill.
ONE_SHOT is reserved for internal use of mysqlbinlog|mysql and works only for charsets,
so we give error if used for non-charset vars.
Fix for BUG#3875 "mysqlbinlog produces wrong ouput if query uses
variables containing quotes" and BUG#3943 "Queries with non-ASCII literals are not replicated
properly after SET NAMES".
Detecting that master and slave have different global charsets or server ids.
