Also expand vcol field index coverings to include indexes covering all
the fields in the expression. The reasoning goes as follows: let f(c1,
c2, ..., cn) be a function on applied to columns c1, c2, ..., cn, if
f(...) is covered by an index, so should vc whose expression is
f(...).
For example, if t.vf = t.c1 + t.c2, and t has three indexes (vf), (c1,
c2), (c1).
Before this change, vf's index covering is a singleton {(vf)}. Let's call
that the "conventional" index covering.
After this change vf's index covering is now {(vf), (c1, c2)}, since
(c1, c2) covers both c1 and c2. Let's call (c1, c2) in this case the
"extra" covering.
With the coverings updated, when an index in the "extra" covering is
chosen for keyread, the vcol also needs to be calculated. In this case
we mark vcol in the table read_set, and ensure it is computed.
With these changes, we see various improvements, including from using
full table scan + filesort to full index scan + filesort when ORDER BY
an indexed vcol (here vc = c + 1 is a vcol and both c and vc are
indexes):
explain select c + 1 from t order by vc;
id select_type table type possible_keys key key_len ref rows Extra
-1 SIMPLE t ALL NULL NULL NULL NULL 10000 Using filesort
+1 SIMPLE t index NULL c 5 NULL 10000 Using index; Using filesort
The substitutions are followed updates to all_fields which include a
copy of the ORDER BY/GROUP BY item pointers, as well as corresponding
updates to ref_pointer_array so that the all_fields and
ref_pointer_array remain in sync.
Another, related change is the recomputation of table index covering
on substitutions. It not only reflects the correct table index
covering after the substitutions, but also improve executions where
the vcol index can be chosen, such as this example (here vc = c + 1
and vc is the only index in the table), from full table scan +
filesort to full index scan:
select vc from t order by c + 1;
We do it in SELECT as well as in single table DELETE/UPDATE.
This patch adds support for SYS_REFCURSOR (a weakly typed cursor)
for both sql_mode=ORACLE and sql_mode=DEFAULT.
Works as a regular stored routine variable, parameter and return value:
- can be passed as an IN parameter to stored functions and procedures
- can be passed as an INOUT and OUT parameter to stored procedures
- can be returned from a stored function
Note, strongly typed REF CURSOR will be added separately.
Note, to maintain dependencies easier, some parts of sql_class.h
and item.h were moved to new header files:
- select_results.h:
class select_result_sink
class select_result
class select_result_interceptor
- sp_cursor.h:
class sp_cursor_statistics
class sp_cursor
- sp_rcontext_handler.h
class Sp_rcontext_handler and its descendants
The implementation consists of the following parts:
- A new class sp_cursor_array deriving from Dynamic_array
- A new class Statement_rcontext which contains data shared
between sub-statements of a compound statement.
It has a member m_statement_cursors of the sp_cursor_array data type,
as well as open cursor counter. THD inherits from Statement_rcontext.
- A new data type handler Type_handler_sys_refcursor in plugins/type_cursor/
It is designed to store uint16 references -
positions of the cursor in THD::m_statement_cursors.
- Type_handler_sys_refcursor suppresses some derived numeric features.
When a SYS_REFCURSOR variable is used as an integer an error is raised.
- A new abstract class sp_instr_fetch_cursor. It's needed to share
the common code between "OPEN cur" (for static cursors) and
"OPER cur FOR stmt" (for SYS_REFCURSORs).
- New sp_instr classes:
* sp_instr_copen_by_ref - OPEN sys_ref_curor FOR stmt;
* sp_instr_cfetch_by_ref - FETCH sys_ref_cursor INTO targets;
* sp_instr_cclose_by_ref - CLOSE sys_ref_cursor;
* sp_instr_destruct_variable - to destruct SYS_REFCURSOR variables when
the execution goes out of the BEGIN..END block
where SYS_REFCURSOR variables are declared.
- New methods in LEX:
* sp_open_cursor_for_stmt - handles "OPEN sys_ref_cursor FOR stmt".
* sp_add_instr_fetch_cursor - "FETCH cur INTO targets" for both
static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs.
* sp_close - handles "CLOSE cur" both for static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs.
- Changes in cursor functions to handle both static cursors and SYS_REFCURSORs:
* Item_func_cursor_isopen
* Item_func_cursor_found
* Item_func_cursor_notfound
* Item_func_cursor_rowcount
- A new system variable @@max_open_cursors - to limit the number
of cursors (static and SYS_REFCURSORs) opened at the same time.
Its allowed range is [0-65536], with 50 by default.
- A new virtual method Type_handler::can_return_bool() telling
if calling item->val_bool() is allowed for Items of this data type,
or if otherwise the "Illegal parameter for operation" error should be raised
at fix_fields() time.
- New methods in Sp_rcontext_handler:
* get_cursor()
* get_cursor_by_ref()
- A new class Sp_rcontext_handler_statement to handle top level statement
wide cursors which are shared by all substatements.
- A new virtual method expr_event_handler() in classes Item and Field.
It's needed to close (and make available for a new OPEN)
unused THD::m_statement_cursors elements which do not have any references
any more. It can happen in various moments in time, e.g.
* after evaluation parameters of an SQL routine
* after assigning a cursor expression into a SYS_REFCURSOR variable
* when leaving a BEGIN..END block with SYS_REFCURSOR variables
* after setting OUT/INOUT routine actual parameters from formal
parameters.
Fixing the code adding MySQL _0900_ collations as _uca1400_ aliases
not to perform deep initialization of the corresponding _uca1400_
collations.
Only basic initialization is now performed which allows to watch
these collations (both _0900_ and _uca1400_) in queries to
INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables COLLATIONS and
COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY,
as well as in SHOW COLLATION statements.
Deep initialization is now performed only when a collation
(either the _0900_ alias or the corresponding _uca1400_ collation)
is used for the very first time after the server startup.
Refactoring was done to maintain the code easier:
- most of the _uca1400_ code was moved from ctype-uca.c
to a new file ctype-uca1400.c
- most of the _0900_ code was moved from type-uca.c
to a new file ctype-uca0900.c
Change details:
- The original function add_alias_for_collation() added by the patch for
"MDEV-20912 Add support for utf8mb4_0900_* collations in MariaDB Server"
was removed from mysys/charset.c, as it had two two problems:
a. it forced deep initialization of the _uca1400_ collations
when adding _0900_ aliases for them at the server startup
(the main reported problem)
b. the collation initialization code in add_alias_for_collation()
was related more to collations rather than to memory management,
so /strings should be a better place for it than /mysys.
The code from add_alias_for_collation() was split into separate functions.
Cyclic dependency was removed. `#include <my_sys.h>` was removed
from /strings/ctype-uca.c. Collations are now added using a callback
function MY_CHARSET_LOADED::add_collation, like it is done for
user collations defined in Index.xml. The code in /mysys sets
MY_CHARSET_LOADED::add_collation to add_compiled_collation().
- The function compare_collations() was removed.
A new virtual function was added into my_collation_handler_st instead:
my_bool (*eq_collation)(CHARSET_INFO *self, CHARSET_INFO *other);
because it is the collation handler who knows how to detect equal
collations by comparing only some of CHARSET_INFO members without
their deep initialization.
Three implementations were added:
- my_ci_eq_collation_uca() for UCA collations, it compares
_0900_ collations as equal to their corresponding _uca1400_ collations.
- my_ci_eq_collation_utf8mb4_bin(), it compares
utf8mb4_nopad_bin and utf8mb4_0900_bin as equal.
- my_ci_eq_collation_generic() - the default implementation,
which compares all collations as not equal.
A C++ wrapper CHARSET_INFO::eq_collations() was added.
The code in /sql was changes to use the wrapper instead of
the former calls for the removed function compare_collations().
- A part of add_alias_for_collation() was moved into a new function
my_ci_alloc(). It allocates a memory for a new charset_info_st
instance together with the collation name and the comment using a single
MY_CHARSET_LOADER::once_alloc call, which points to my_once_alloc()
in the server.
- A part of add_alias_for_collation() was moved into a new function
my_ci_make_comment_for_alias(). It makes an "Alias for xxx" string,
e.g. "Alias for utf8mb4_uca1400_swedish_ai_ci" in case of
utf8mb4_sv_0900_ai_ci.
- A part of the code in create_tailoring() was moved to
a new function my_uca1400_collation_get_initialized_shared_uca(),
to reuse the code between _uca1400_ and _0900_ collations.
- A new function my_collation_id_is_mysql_uca0900() was added
in addition to my_collation_id_is_mysql_uca1400().
- Functions to build collation names were added:
my_uca0900_collation_build_name()
my_uca1400_collation_build_name()
- A shared function function was added:
my_bool
my_uca1400_collation_alloc_and_init(MY_CHARSET_LOADER *loader,
LEX_CSTRING name,
LEX_CSTRING comment,
const uca_collation_def_param_t *param,
uint id)
It's reused to add _uca1400_ and _0900_ collations, with basic
initialization (without deep initialization).
- The function add_compiled_collation() changed its return type from
void to int, to make it compatible with MY_CHARSET_LOADER::add_collation.
- Functions mysql_uca0900_collation_definition_add(),
mysql_uca0900_utf8mb4_collation_definitions_add(),
mysql_utf8mb4_0900_bin_add() were added into ctype-uca0900.c.
They get MY_CHARSET_LOADER as a parameter.
- Functions my_uca1400_collation_definition_add(),
my_uca1400_collation_definitions_add() were moved from
charset-def.c to strings/ctype-uca1400.c.
The latter now accepts MY_CHARSET_LOADER as the first parameter
instead of initializing a MY_CHARSET_LOADER inside.
- init_compiled_charsets() now initializes a MY_CHARSET_LOADER
variable and passes it to all functions adding collations:
- mysql_utf8mb4_0900_collation_definitions_add()
- mysql_uca0900_utf8mb4_collation_definitions_add()
- mysql_utf8mb4_0900_bin_add()
- A new structure was added into ctype-uca.h:
typedef struct uca_collation_def_param
{
my_cs_encoding_t cs_id;
uint tailoring_id;
uint nopad_flags;
uint level_flags;
} uca_collation_def_param_t;
It simplifies reusing the code for _uca1400_ and _0900_ collations.
- The definition of MY_UCA1400_COLLATION_DEFINITION was
moved from ctype-uca.c to ctype-uca1400.h, to reuse
the code for _uca1400_ and _0900_ collations.
- The definitions of "MY_UCA_INFO my_uca_v1400" and
"MY_UCA_INFO my_uca1400_info_tailored[][]" were moved from
ctype-uca.c to ctype-uca1400.c.
- The definitions/declarations of:
- mysql_0900_collation_start,
- struct mysql_0900_to_mariadb_1400_mapping
- mysql_0900_to_mariadb_1400_mapping
- mysql_utf8mb4_0900_collation_definitions_add()
were moved from ctype-uca.c to ctype-uca0900.c
- Functions
my_uca1400_make_builtin_collation_id()
my_uca1400_collation_definition_init()
my_uca1400_collation_id_uca400_compat()
my_ci_get_collation_name_uca1400_context()
were moved from ctype-uca.c to ctype-uca1400.c and ctype-uca1400.h
- A part of my_uca1400_collation_definition_init()
was moved into my_uca0520_builtin_collation_by_id(),
to make functions smaller.
* Let GCC `-Wformat` check formats sent to these `my_vsnprintf_ex` users
* Migrate them from the old extension specifiers
to the new `-Wformat`-compatible suffixes
[Breaking]
The `my_print_error` service passes formats and args directly
to `my_vsnprintf`. Just like the `my_snprintf` service,
I increased this service’s major version because:
* Custom suffixes are now a thing
(and custom specifiers will soon no longer be).
* GCC `-Wformat` now checks formats sent to them.
* rpl.rpl_system_versioning_partitions updated for MDEV-32188
* innodb.row_size_error_log_warnings_3 changed error for MDEV-33658
(checks are done in a different order)
normalize_cond() translated `WHERE col` into `WHERE col<>0`
But the opetator "not equal to 0" does not necessarily exists
for all data types.
For example, the query:
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE inet6col;
was translated to:
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE inet6col<>0;
which further failed with this error:
ERROR : Illegal parameter data types inet6 and bigint for operation '<>'
This patch changes the translation from `col<>0` to `col IS TRUE`.
So now
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE inet6col;
gets translated to:
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE inet6col IS TRUE;
Details:
1. Implementing methods:
- Field_longstr::val_bool()
- Field_string::val_bool()
- Item::val_int_from_val_str()
If the input contains bad data,
these methods raise a better error message:
Truncated incorrect BOOLEAN value
Before the change, the error was:
Truncated incorrect DOUBLE value
2. Fixing normalize_cond() to generate Item_func_istrue/Item_func_isfalse
instances instead of Item_func_ne/Item_func_eq
3. Making Item_func_truth sargable, so it uses the range optimizer.
Implementing the following methods:
- get_mm_tree(), get_mm_leaf(), add_key_fields() in Item_func_truth.
- get_func_mm_tree(), for all Item_func_truth descendants.
4. Implementing the method negated_item() for all Item_func_truth
descendants, so the negated item has a chance to be sargable:
For example,
WHERE NOT col IS NOT FALSE -- this notation is not sargable
is now translated to:
WHERE col IS FALSE -- this notation is sargable
The val_buffer variable can come to Field_set::val_str()
with the Ptr member equal to nullptr. This caused UBSAN errors
"applying zero offset to null pointer" in my_strnncollsp_simple()
and other strnncollsp() virtual implementations. Fixing the code to
make sure its Ptr is not equal to nullptr.
This is done by mapping most of the existing MySQL unicode 0900 collations
to MariadB 1400 unicode collations. The assumption is that 1400 is a super
set of 0900 for all practical purposes.
I also added a new function 'compare_collations()' and changed most code
to use this instead of comparing character sets directly.
This enables one to seamlessly mix-and-match the corresponding 0900 and
1400 sets. Field comparision and alter table treats the character sets
as identical.
All MySQL 8.0 0900 collations are supported except:
- utf8mb4_ja_0900_as_cs
- utf8mb4_ja_0900_as_cs_ks
- utf8mb4_ru_0900_as_cs
- utf8mb4_zh_0900_as_cs
These do not have corresponding entries in the MariadB 01400 collations.
Other things:
- Added COMMENT colum to information_schema.collations. For utf8mb4_0900
colletions it contains the corresponding alias collation.
Limit only signed integer fields fields to LONGLONG_MAX.
Double and decimal fields do not need this limit, as they
can store integers up to ULONGLONG_MAX without problems.
During a query execution some sorting and grouping operations
on strings may be involved. System variable max_sort_length defines
the maximum number of bytes to use when comparing strings during
sorting/grouping. Thus, the comparable parts of strings may be less
than their actual size, so the results of the query may be not
sorted/grouped properly.
To indicate that some comparisons were done on a truncated lengths,
a new warning has been introduced with this commit.
Step#1: fixing the return type of strnxfrm() from size_t to this structure:
typedef struct
{
size_t m_output_length;
size_t m_source_length_used;
uint m_warnings;
} my_strnxfrm_ret_t;
Adding support for the ROW data type in the stored function RETURNS clause:
- explicit ROW(..members...) for both sql_mode=DEFAULT and sql_mode=ORACLE
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS ROW(a INT, b VARCHAR(32)) ...
- anchored "ROW TYPE OF [db1.]table1" declarations for sql_mode=DEFAULT
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS ROW TYPE OF test.t1 ...
- anchored "[db1.]table1%ROWTYPE" declarations for sql_mode=ORACLE
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURN test.t1%ROWTYPE ...
Adding support for anchored scalar data types in RETURNS clause:
- "TYPE OF [db1.]table1.column1" for sql_mode=DEFAULT
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS TYPE OF test.t1.column1;
- "[db1.]table1.column1" for sql_mode=ORACLE
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURN test.t1.column1%TYPE;
Details:
- Adding a new sql_mode_t parameter to
sp_head::create()
sp_head::sp_head()
sp_package::create()
sp_package::sp_package()
to guarantee early initialization of sp_head::m_sql_mode.
Before this change, this member was not initialized at all during
CREATE FUNCTION/PROCEDURE/PACKAGE statements, and was not used.
Now it needs to be initialized to write properly the
mysql.proc.returns column, according to the create time sql_mode.
- Code refactoring to make the things simpler and functions smaller:
* Adding a new method
Field_row::row_create_fields(THD *thd, List<Spvar_definition> *list)
to make a Virtual_tmp_table with Fields for ROW members
from an explicit definition.
* Adding a new method
Field_row::row_create_fields(THD *thd, const Spvar_definition &def)
to make a Virtual_tmp_table with Fields for ROW members
from an explicit or a table anchored definition.
* Adding a new method
Item_args::add_array_of_item_field(THD *thd, const Virtual_tmp_table &vtable)
to create and array of Item_field corresponding to all Field instances
in a Virtual_tmp_table
* Removing Item_field_row::row_create_items(). It was decomposed
into the new methods described above.
* Moving the code from the loop body in sp_rcontext::init_var_items()
into a separate method Spvar_definition::make_item_field_row(),
to make the code clearer (smaller functions).
make_item_field_row() itself uses the new methods described above.
- Changing the data type of sp_head::m_return_field_def
from Column_definition to Spvar_definition.
So now it supports not only SQL column field types,
but also explicit ROW and anchored ROW data types,
as well as anchored column types.
- Adding a new Column_definition parameter to sp_head::create_result_field().
Before this patch, create_result_field() took the definition only
from m_return_field_def. Now it's also called with a local Column_definition
variable which contains the explicit definition resolved from an
anchored defition.
- Modifying sql_yacc.yy to support the new grammar.
Adding new helper methods:
* sf_return_fill_definition_row()
* sf_return_fill_definition_rowtype_of()
* sf_return_fill_definition_type_of()
- Fixing tests in:
* Virtual_tmp_table::setup_field_pointers() in sql_select.cc
* Send_field::normalize() in field.h
* store_column_type()
to prevent calling Type_handler_row::field_type(),
which is implemented a DBUG_ASSERT(0).
Before this patch the affected methods and functions were called only
for scalar data types. Now ROW is also possible.
- Adding a new virtual method Field::cols()
- Overriding methods:
Item_func_sp::cols()
Item_func_sp::element_index()
Item_func_sp::check_cols()
Item_func_sp::bring_value()
to support the ROW data type.
- Extending the rule sp_return_type to support
* explicit ROW and anchored ROW data types
* anchored scalar data types
- Overriding Field_row::sql_type() to print
the data type of an explicit ROW.
Field_blob::store() has special code for GROUP_CONCAT temporary table
(to store blob values in Blob_mem_storage - this prevents them
from being freed/overwritten when a next row is read).
Field_geom and Field_blob_compressed inherit from Field_blob but they
have their own ::store() method without this special Blob_mem_storage
support.
Considering that non-grouping CONCAT() of such fields converts
them to plain BLOB, let's do the same for GROUP_CONCAT. To do it,
Item_func_group_concat::setup will signal that it's creating
a temporary table for GROUP_CONCAT, and Field_blog::make_new_field()
override will create base Field_blob when under group concat.
Field_string::val_int(), Field_string::val_real(), Field_string::val_decimal()
passed the whole buffer of field_length bytes to data type conversion routines.
This made conversion routines to print redundant trailing spaces in case of warnings.
Adding a method Field_string::to_lex_cstring() and using it inside
val_int(), val_real(), val_decimal(), val_str().
After this change conversion routines get the same value with what val_str() returns,
and no redundant trailing spaces are displayed.
MDEV-32188 make TIMESTAMP use whole 32-bit unsigned range
- Changed usage of timeval to my_timeval as the timeval parts on windows
are 32-bit long, which causes some compiler issues on windows.
This patch extends the timestamp from
2038-01-19 03:14:07.999999 to 2106-02-07 06:28:15.999999
for 64 bit hardware and OS where 'long' is 64 bits.
This is true for 64 bit Linux but not for Windows.
This is done by treating the 32 bit stored int as unsigned instead of
signed. This is safe as MariaDB has never accepted dates before the epoch
(1970).
The benefit of this approach that for normal timestamp the storage is
compatible with earlier version.
However for tables using system versioning we before stored a
timestamp with the year 2038 as the 'max timestamp', which is used to
detect current values. This patch stores the new 2106 year max value
as the max timestamp. This means that old tables using system
versioning needs to be updated with mariadb-upgrade when moving them
to 11.4. That will be done in a separate commit.
In strict mode a timestamp(0) column could be directly assigned from
another timestamp(N>0) column with the value '1970-01-01 00:00:00.1'
(at time zone '+00:00'), or with any other value '1970-01-01 00:00:00.XXXXXX'
with non-zero microsecond value XXXXXX.
This assignment happened silently without warnings or errors.
It worked as follows:
- The value {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=100000}, which is '1970-01-01 00:00:00.1'
was rounded to {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=0}, which is '1970-01-01 00:00:00.0'
- Then {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=0} was silently re-interpreted as zero datetime.
After the fix this assignment always raises a warning,
which in case of the strict mode is escalated to an error.
The problem in this scenario is that '1970-01-01 00:00:00' cannot be stored,
because its timeval value {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=0} is reserved for zero datetimes.
Thus the warning should be raised no matter if sql_mode allows or disallows
zero dates.
Field_timestampf::val_native() checked only the
first four bytes to detect zero dates.
That was not enough. Fixing the code to check all packed_length()
bytes to detect zero dates.
The code in Field_timestamp::save_in_field() did not catch
zero datetime and stored it to the other field like a usual value
using store_timestamp_dec(), which knows nothing about zero date and
treats {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=0} as a normal timeval value corresponding to
'1970-01-01 00:00:00 +00:00'.
Fixing the code to catch the special combination (ts==0 && sec_pat==0) and
store it using store_time_dec() with a zero datetime passed as an argument.
Fixing the problem that an operation involving a mix of
two or more GEOMETRY operands did not preserve their SRIDs.
Now SRIDs are preserved by hybrid functions, subqueries, TVCs, UNIONs, VIEWs.
Incompatible change:
An attempt to mix two different SRIDs now raises an error.
Details:
- Adding a new class Type_extra_attributes. It's a generic
container which can store very specific data type attributes.
For now it can store one uint32 and one const pointer attribute
(for GEOMETRY's SRID and for ENUM/SET TYPELIB respectively).
In the future it can grow as needed.
Type_extra_attributes will also be reused soon to store "const Type_zone*"
pointers for the TIMESTAMP's "WITH TIME ZONE 'tz'" attribute
(a timestamp data type with a fixed time zone independent from @@time_zone).
The time zone attribute will be stored in exactly the same way like
a TYPELIB pointer is stored by ENUM/SET.
- Removing Column_definition_attributes members "interval" and "srid".
Deriving Column_definition_attributes from the generic attribute container
Type_extra_attributes instead.
- Adding a new class Type_typelib_attributes, to store
the TYPELIB of the ENUM and SET data types. Deriving Field_enum from it.
Removing the member Field_enum::typelib.
- Adding a new class Type_geom_attributes, to store
the GEOMETRY related attributes. Deriving Field_geom from it.
Removing the member Field_geom::srid.
- Removing virtual methods:
Field::get_typelib()
Type_all_attributes::get_typelib() and
Type_all_attributes::set_typelib()
They were very specific to TYPELIB.
Adding more generic virtual methods instead:
* Field::type_extra_attributes() - to get extra attributes
* Type_all_attributes::type_extra_attributes() - to get extra attributes
* Type_all_attributes::type_extra_attributes_addr() - to set extra attributes
- Removing Item_type_holder::enum_set_typelib. Deriving Item_type_holder
from the generic attribute container Type_extra_attributes instead.
This makes it possible for UNION to preserve SRID
(in addition to preserving TYPELIB).
- Deriving Item_hybrid_func from Type_extra_attributes.
This makes it possible for hybrid functions (e.g. CASE, COALESCE,
LEAST, GREATEST etc) to preserve SRID.
- Deriving Item_singlerow_subselect from Type_extra_attributes and
overriding methods:
* Item_cache::type_extra_attributes()
* subselect_single_select_engine::fix_length_and_dec()
* Item_singlerow_subselect::type_extra_attributes()
* Item_singlerow_subselect::type_extra_attributes_addr()
This is needed to preserve SRID in subqueries and TVCs
- Cleanup: fixing the data type of members
* Binlog_type_info::m_enum_typelib
* Binlog_type_info::m_set_typelib
from "TYPELIB *" to "const TYPELIB *"
