No separate typecode for MEDIUMTEXT/LONGTEXT is added, as we
have no sound decision yet what typecodes and for what types are
sent by the server (aka what constitutes a distinct type in MySQL).
- Add function Item_param::fix_fields which will update any subselect they are part of and indicate that the subsleect is not const during prepare phase, and thus should not be executed during prepare.
not default_charset_into. It fixes the
problem that in some cases numbers where
treated as CHAR(N), not as BINARY(N), e.g.
wrong 'charsetnr' when sent to the client side.
2. IFNULL didn't aggregate argument charsets
and collations, so IFNULL(1,'a') produced
a CHAR(N). Now produces a BINARY(N).
3. SELECT PROCEDURE ANALIZE now returns
BINARY columns, which is much better than it worked
previously: CHAR with the default character set.
But in the future it's worth to fix the fields
'Field_name' and 'Optimal_fieldtype' to use UTF8,
and 'Min_value' and 'Max_value' to inherit their charsets
from the original items. But it is not important,
and BINARY(N) is OK for now.
4. Tests were fixed accordingly. No new tests were
made, as the old onces cover everything.
ps-modify1 used the user variables @1, @2, @100 set within ps_query and
ps_modify. That architecture was wrong, because the dependence
of ps_modify1 on ps_query and ps_modify makes the test script
maintenance and the use of these test cases during bug fixing/
debugging of single sub test cases very uncomfortable.
Therefore these user variables (@1, @2, @100) are also set within ps-modify1.
The result files of the test cases ps_2myisam, ps_3innodb, ps_4heap, ps_6bdb,
ps_7ndb will be affected by that change and show 3 additional lines, but
nothing else will change.
the result takes its charset/collation
attributes from the character string,
e.g. SELECT func(NULL, _latin2'string')
now returns a latin2 result. This is
done by introducing a new derivation
(aka coercibility) level DERIVATION_IGNORABLE,
which is used with Item_null.
2. 'Pure' NULL is now BINARY(0), not CHAR(0).
I.e. NULL is now more typeless.
character set with NULL, @a should be latin2
after this query sequence:
SET @a=_latin2'string';
SET @a=NULL;
I.e. the second query should not change the charset
to the current default value, but should keep the
original value assigned during the first query.
In order to do it, we don't copy charset
from the argument if the argument is NULL
and the variable has previously been initialized.
