result
The IN function aggregates result types of all expressions. It uses that
type in comparison of left expression and expressions in right part.
This approach works in most cases. But let's consider the case when the
right part contains both strings and integers. In that case this approach may
cause wrong results because all strings which do not start with a digit are
evaluated as 0.
CASE uses the same approach when a CASE expression is given thus it's also
affected.
The idea behind this fix is to make IN function to compare expressions with
different result types differently. For example a string in the left
part will be compared as string with strings specified in right part and
will be converted to real for comparison to int or real items in the right
part.
A new function called collect_cmp_types() is added. It collects different
result types for comparison of first item in the provided list with each
other item in the list.
The Item_func_in class now can refer up to 5 cmp_item objects: 1 for each
result type for comparison purposes. cmp_item objects are allocated according
to found result types. The comparison of the left expression with any
right part expression is now based only on result types of these expressions.
The Item_func_case class is modified in the similar way when a CASE
expression is specified. Now it can allocate up to 5 cmp_item objects
to compare CASE expression with WHEN expressions of different types.
The comparison of the CASE expression with any WHEN expression now based only
on result types of these expressions.
ALTER EVENT in stored procedure body led to a crash during the
procedure call. Affected was only ALTER EVENT which changed the
interval of the event. No problems with AT, STARTS, ENDS and so on.
Presence of a subquery in the ON expression of a join
should not block merging the view that contains this join.
Before this patch the such views were converted into
into temporary table views.
an ALL/ANY quantified subquery in HAVING.
The Item::split_sum_func2 method should not create Item_ref
for objects of any class derived from Item_subselect.
Any default value for a enum fields over UCS2 charsets was corrupted
when we put it into the frm file, as it had been overwritten by its
HEX representation.
To fix it now we save a copy of structure that represents the enum
type and when putting the default values we use this copy.
that returns the results of aggregation by GROUP_CONCAT.
The crash was due to an overflow happened for the field
sortoder->length.
The fix prevents this overflow exploiting the fact that the
value of sortoder->length cannot be greater than the value of
thd->variables.max_sort_length.
Bug#20627 - INSERT DELAYED does not honour auto_increment_* variables
INSERT DELAYED ignored an explicitly set INSERT_ID and session
specific auto_increment_* variables.
The problem was that the inserts are done by a system thread,
which does not have access to the session variables of the user
thread.
On a proposal of Guilhem I fixed it so that the variables are
copied to the data structure for every delayed row. The system
thread sets its session variables from these values.
