The problem: base_list::remove didn't modify base_list::last when removing
the last list element.
The fix: If we remove the last element, find the element before it (by walking
from the beginning of the list) and set base_list::last accordingly.
The list gets corrupted in both 4.0 and 4.1. There are no visible problems in
current 4.1 because current 4.1 doesn't call where_cond->fix_fields() after
constant propagation step.
Rework to resolve ambigious grammer: conflict in join expression
handling of parentheses for nested joins and derived tables.
Tests included of failing statements
Optimize item construction for AND/OR logical expressions
The reported problems were due to two completely unrelated omissions.
1) The file sort procedure didn't correctly create the sort key in
make_sortkey when the sortkey was an unsigned integer.
2) The name resolution procedure for column references inside a HAVING
clause did not propagate the unsigned_flag of the resolved references.
This patch corrects both problems.
Added a test case for bug #7098.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #7098.
When a string field was substituted for an equal constant
the collation of the constant was changed by mistake for
the binary collation.
Added a test case for bug #7520.
table.cc:
Fixed bug #7520.
The bug was caused by a wrong calculation of the field max_key_length for
a TABLE structure when there was an index on a blob field.
Renamed HA_VAR_LENGTH to HA_VAR_LENGTH_PART
Renamed in all files FIELD_TYPE_STRING and FIELD_TYPE_VAR_STRING to MYSQL_TYPE_STRING and MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING to make it easy to catch all possible errors
Added support for VARCHAR KEYS to heap
Removed support for ISAM
Now only long VARCHAR columns are changed to TEXT on demand (not CHAR)
Internal temporary files can now use fixed length tables if the used VARCHAR columns are short
Added test cases for bug #6474.
sql_select.cc:
Fixed bug #6474. A wrong result was returned when a query
contained the same equality of the form field=const on
different AND levels.
More tests.
Better error messages.
Fixed bug when checking if we updated all needed columns for INSERT.
Give an error if we encounter a wrong float value during parsing.
Don't print DEFAULT for columns without a default value in SHOW CREATE/SHOW FIELDS.
Fixed UPDATE IGNORE when using STRICT mode.
Under strict mode MySQL will generate an error message if there was any conversion when assigning data to a field.
Added checking of date/datetime fields.
If strict mode, give error if we have not given value to field without a default value (for INSERT)
