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.
