symptom). sys_var::check_set() was wrong. mysqlbinlog makes use of such SET SQL_MODE=N
(where N is interpreted like if SQL_MODE was a field of type SET), so
this bug affected recovery from binlogs if the server was running with certain SQL_MODE values,
for example the default values on Windows (STRICT_TRANS_TABLES); to work around this bug people
had to edit mysqlbinlog's output.
"CHARACTER SET", "COLLATE", and "DEFAULT" are always
printed(excepting MODE_MYSQL323 and MODE_MYSQL40)
"AUTO_INCREMENT", "ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP" are printed only
if NO_FIELD_OPTIONS is not set.
"SHOW CREATE TABLE" mysql-4.0 and mysql-3.23
compatibiliry mode change:
Check that a binary collation adds 'binary'
suffix into a char() column definition in
mysql40 and mysql2323 modes. This allows
not to lose the column's case sensitivity
when loading the dump in pre-4.1 servers.
Added a check to recover from IGNORE_SPACE in this situation:
<ident-character(s)><space><dot><ident-character(s)>
The ignored space led to the false identification of the dot
as an ident separator (like "db.table").
bmove_allign -> bmove_align
Added OLAP function ROLLUP
Split mysql_fix_privilege_tables to a script and a .sql data file
Added new (MEMROOT*) functions to avoid calling current_thd() when creating some common objects.
Added table_alias_charset, for easier --lower-case-table-name handling
Better SQL_MODE handling (Setting complex options also sets sub options)
New (faster) assembler string functions for x86
