fixing test results accordingly.
func_system.test:
New test that illegal mix of collations does not happen anymore.
item_strfunc.h:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_strfunc.cc:
safe_charset_converter() was added for system constants.
item_func.cc, item.h, item.cc:
Bug#8291: Illegal collation mix with USER() function.
After discussion with PeterG and Serge, a new coercibility
level for "system constants" was introduced, between
COERRIBLE and IMPLICIT. Thus:
SELECT col1 = USER() FROM t1; - is done according to col1 collation.
SELECT 'string' = USER(); - is done according to USER() collation.
At the same time, "nagg" and "strong" members were removed as unused.
item_create.cc:
Version is a system constant too.
The objects of this class represent multiple conjunctive equalities
in where conditions: =(f1,f2,...fn) <=> f1=f2 and f2= ... and =fn.
The objects are used to generate new possibale paths to access
the tables when executing a query.
They are also used to optimize the execution plan
chosen by the optimizer for the query.
Cleaned up (and disabled part of) date/time/datetime format patch. One can't anymore change default read/write date/time/formats.
This is becasue the non standard datetime formats can't be compared as strings and MySQL does still a lot of datetime comparisons as strings
Changed flag argument to str_to_TIME() and get_date() from bool to uint
Removed THD from str_to_xxxx functions and Item class.
Fixed core dump when doing --print-defaults
Move some common string functions to strfunc.cc
Dates as strings are now of type my_charset_bin instead of default_charset()
Introduce IDENT_QUOTED to not have to create an extra copy of simple identifiers (all chars < 128)
Removed xxx_FORMAT_TYPE enums and replaced them with the old TIMESTAMP_xxx enums
Renamed some TIMESTAMP_xxx enums to more appropriate names
Use defines instead of integers for date/time/datetime string lengths
Added to build system and use the new my_strtoll10() function.
--old-passwords
Support for option --old-protocol was removed.
Some test performed.
Tests for SSL and replication are pending.
More strict following to specification for --old-passwords
is in the TODO.
