available and reduce the chance of failure. This should fix bug#28585
which is caused by the script being quite random in how it finds files it
requires and not giving very good feedback to the user about what went
wrong.
Also update make_binary_distribution so that it provides the correct path
to the required SQL scripts when generating mysql_install_db. The script
only previously worked because of the permissive behaviour which looked
around the current working directory before the "correct" location. This
could lead to severe problems if the user happened to run the script from
a location which contained older or even broken copies of the SQL scripts.
We now require either a complete binary release (and the mysql_install_db
script ran from inside the extracted archive), or an installed compiled
tree, as this is the only way we can be sure everything that we need is
available and ready to run.
While working on this fix, also clean up the mysql_install_db script a lot
to make it simpler, easier to read, and hopefully less prone to bugs in
the future.
The Item_date_typecast::val_int function doesn't reset null_value flag.
This makes all values that follows the first null value to be treated as nulls
and led to a wrong result.
Now the Item_date_typecast::val_int function correctly sets the null_value flag
for both null and non-null values.
a temporary table.
The result string of the Item_func_group_concat wasn't initialized in the
copying constructor of the Item_func_group_concat class. This led to a
wrong charset of GROUP_CONCAT result when the select employs a temporary
table.
The copying constructor of the Item_func_group_concat class now correctly
initializes the charset of the result string.
For each view the mysqldump utility creates a temporary table
with the same name and the same columns as the view
in order to satisfy views that depend on this view.
After the creation of all tables, mysqldump drops all
temporary tables and creates actual views.
However, --skip-add-drop-table and --compact flags disable
DROP TABLE statements for those temporary tables. Thus, it was
impossible to create the views because of existence of the
temporary tables with the same names.
In embedded server we use result->alloc to store field data for the
result, but we didn't clean the result->alloc if the query returned
an empty recordset. Cleaning for the empty recordset enabled
The get_time_value function is added. It is used to obtain TIME values both
from items the can return time as an integer and from items that can return
time only as a string.
The Arg_comparator::compare_datetime function now uses pointer to a getter
function to obtain values to compare. Now this function is also used for
comparison of TIME values.
The get_value_func variable is added to the Arg_comparator class.
It points to a getter function for the DATE/DATETIME/TIME comparator.
