column types TIMESTAMP is NOT NULL by default, so in order to have
TIMESTAMP column holding NULL valaues you have to specify NULL as
one of its attributes (this needed for backward compatibility).
Main changes:
Replaced TABLE::timestamp_default_now/on_update_now members with
TABLE::timestamp_auto_set_type flag which is used everywhere
for determining if we should auto-set value of TIMESTAMP field
during this operation or not. We are also use Field_timestamp::set_time()
instead of handler::update_timestamp() in handlers.
In some places in mysqld behaviour depends on system working directory
It works badly in libmysqld because user can set it in the way he needs.
I think we should explicitly insert mysql_real_data_home value in
paths in these places
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.
Final version of patch.
Adds support for specifying of DEFAULT NOW() and/or ON UPDATE NOW()
clauses for TIMESTAMP field definition.
Current implementation allows only one such field per table and
uses several unireg types for storing info about this properties of
field. It should be replaced with better implementation when new
.frm format is introduced.
I remove the --old-rpl-compat which produces broken binlogs readable
neither by 4.0 nor by 3.23.
This option is a leftover of the early replication of 4.0.0, when
it was still partly compatible with 3.23.
I explained this to the user in the bug report.
Don't dump data for MRG_ISAM or MRG_MYISAM tables. (Bug #1846)
Ensure that 'lower_case_table_names' is always set on case insensitive file systems. (Bug #1812)
One can now configure MySQL as windows service as a normal user. (Bug #1802)
Database names is now compared with lower case in ON clause when lower_case_table_names is set. (Bug #1736)
IGNORE ... LINES option didn't work when used with fixed length rows. (Bug #1704)
Change INSERT DELAYED ... SELECT... to INSERT .... SELECT (Bug #1983)
Safety fix for service 'mysql start' (Bug #1815)
"LOAD DATA INFILE is badly filtered by binlog-*-db rules".
There will probably be a second final one to merge Dmitri's changes
to rpl_log.result and mine.
2 new tests:
rpl_loaddata_rule_m : test of logging of LOAD DATA INFILE when the master has binlog-*-db rules,
rpl_loaddata_rule_s : test of logging of LOAD DATA INFILE when the slave has binlog-*-db rules and --log-slave-updates.
Remove accidenatlly committed debug printfs when query cache is used
sql_update.cc, sql_load.cc, sql_insert.cc, sql_delete.cc:
For the transactional query cache algorithm to work we must invalidate the query cache in INSERT/DELETE/UPDATE before writing to the binlog or calling ha_autocommit_... Note that binlog writing may also call commit. The crucial thing is that the transaction which modified data must not be committed BEFORE the query cache is invalidated.
