* Provide backwards compatibility extension to name resolution of
coalesced columns. The patch allows such columns to be qualified
with a table (and db) name, as it is in 4.1.
Based on a patch from Monty.
* Adjusted tests accordingly to test both backwards compatible name
resolution of qualified columns, and ANSI-style resolution of
non-qualified columns.
For this, each affected test has two versions - one with qualified
columns, and one without.
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
When PRIMARY KEY is present ha_innobase::cmp_ref() uses it to compare refs.
After comparing part of key it moves pointers to compare next part.
For varchar parts pointers were moved only by length of parts, not including
bytes containig part length itself. This results in wrong comparision and
wrong number of deleted records.
- Print warning that says display width is not supported for datatype TIMESTAMP, if user tries to create a TIMESTAMP column with display width.
- Use display width for TIMESTAMP only in type_timestamp test to make sure warning is displayed correctly.
Ensure that 'null_value' is not accessed before val() is called in FIELD() functions
Fixed initialization of key maps. This fixes some problems with keys when you have more than 64 keys
Fixed that ROLLUP don't always create a temporary table. This fix ensures that func_gconcat.test results are now predictable
Enabled VARCHAR testing for innodb
NOTE: innodb.test currently fails becasue of a bug in InnoDB.
I have informed Heikki about this and expect him to fix this ASAP
Fix a crash in a simple search with a key: the dtype->len of a true VARCHAR is the payload maximum len in bytes: it does not include the 2 bytes MySQL uses to store the string length
ha_innodb.cc:
Fix a crash in true VARCHARs in test-innodb: we passed a wrong pointer to the column conversion in an UPDATE
rowid_order_innodb.result, ps_3innodb.result, innodb.result, endspace.result:
Edit InnoDB test results to reflect the arrival of true VARCHARs
