(Regression, caused by a patch for the bug 22646).
Problem: when result type of date_format() was changed from
binary string to character string, mixing date_format()
with a ascii column in CONCAT() stopped to work.
Fix:
- adding "repertoire" flag into DTCollation class,
to mark items which can return only pure ASCII strings.
- allow character set conversion from pure ASCII to other character sets.
represented by an expression of the type UNSIGNED INT and this
expression was evaluated to 0 then the function erroneously returned
the value of the first argument instead of an empty string.
This problem was introduced by the patch for bug 10963.
The problem has been resolved by a proper modification of the code of
Item_func_substr::val_str.
- unsigned flag was not handled correctly for a number of mathematical funcions, which led to incorrect results
- passing large values as the number of decimals to ROUND() resulted in incorrect results and even server crashes in some cases
- reverted the fix and the testcase for bug #10083 as it violates the manual
- fixed some testcases which relied on broken ROUND() behavior
Problem: SOUNDEX returned an invalid string for international
characters in multi-byte character sets.
For example: for a Chinese/Japanese 3-byte long character
_utf8 0xE99885 it took only the very first byte 0xE9,
put it into the outout string and then appended with three
DIGIT ZERO characters, so the result was 0xE9303030 - which
is an invalide utf8 string.
Fix: make SOUNDEX() multi-byte aware and - put only complete
characters into result, thus return only valid strings.
This patch also makes SOUNDEX() compatible with UCS2.
When the SUBSTRING() function was used over a LONGTEXT field the max_length of
the SUBSTRING() result was wrongly calculated and set to 0. As the max_length
parameter is used while tmp field creation it limits the length of the result
field and leads to printing an empty string instead of the correct result.
Now the Item_func_substr::fix_length_and_dec() function correctly calculates
the max_length parameter.
- Implement --secure-file-priv=<dir> option that limits
"load_file", "LOAD DATA" and "SELECT .. INTO OUTFILE" to work
with files in specified dir.
- Use above option for mysqld in mysql-test-run.pl
correctly.
The Item_func::print method was used to print the Item_func_encode and the
Item_func_decode objects. The last argument to ENCODE and DECODE functions
is a plain C string and thus Item_func::print wasn't able to print it.
The print() method is added to the Item_func_encode class. It correctly
prints the Item_func_encode and the Item_func_decode objects.

Handling of large signed/unsigned values was not consistent, so some string functions could return bogus results.
The current fix is to simply patch up the val_str() methods for those string items.
It would be good clean this code up in general, to make similar problems much harder to make. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
- Removed not used variables and functions
- Added #ifdef around code that is not used
- Renamed variables and functions to avoid conflicts
- Removed some not used arguments
Fixed some class/struct warnings in ndb
Added define IS_LONGDATA() to simplify code in libmysql.c
I did run gcov on the changes and added 'purecov' comments on almost all lines that was not just variable name changes
Fixed compiler warnings (detected by VC++):
- Removed not used variables
- Added casts
- Fixed wrong assignments to bool
- Fixed wrong calls with bool arguments
- Added missing argument to store(longlong), which caused wrong store method to be called.
on large length
Problem: Most (all) of the numeric inputs were being coerced into
int (32 bit) sized variables. Works OK for sane inputs; any input
larger than 2^32 (or 2^31 for signed vars) exihibited predictable
wrapping behavior (up to about 10^18) and then started having really
strange behaviour past that point (since the conversion to 64 bit int
from the DECIMAL type can do weird things on out of range numbers).
Solution: 1) Add many tests. 2) Convert input from (u)long type to
(u)longlong. 3) Do (sometimes multiple) sanity checks on input,
keeping in mind that sometimes a negative longlong is not a negative
longlong (if the unsigned_flag is set). 4) Emulate existing behavior
w/rt negative and "small" out-of-bounds values.
Item_substr's results are improperly stored in a temporary table due to
wrongly calculated max_length value for multi-byte charsets if two
arguments specified.
- Fix typo in Item_func_export_set::fix_length_and_dec() which caused character set aggregation to fail
- Remove default argument from last arg of agg_arg_charsets() function, to reduce potential errors
Converting BIT to a string (an intermediate step in conversion) does
not yield an ASCII numeric string, so we skip that step for BIT and
get the integer value directly from the item.
This site in sql/item_strfunc.cc may be ripe for refactoring for
other types as well, where converting to a string is a waste of time.
