BINARY(N) and VARBIBARY(N)
2. More 4.0 compatibility and more BINARY keyword consistency:
2a. CREATE TABLE a (a CHAR(N) BINARY)
is now synonym for
CREATE TABLE a (a CHAR(N) COLLATE xxxx_bin)
2b. SELECT BINARY x
is still synonin for
SELECT x COLLATE xxxxx_bin.
Added more DBUG statements
Ensure that we are comparing end space with BINARY strings
Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
Remove redundant code; parse both the database name and the table name in a FOREIGN KEY constraint with quotes in mind
row0mysql.c, ha_innodb.cc, sql_table.cc:
Return error message Cannot delete or update a parent row... if we try to drop a table which is referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint, and the user has not set foreign_key_checks=0
Added support for lower_case_table_names=2, which is to be used on case insensitive file systems.
This tells MySQL to preserve the used case of filenames and database names to make it esier to move files between cases sensitive can case insensitive file systems (like Windows and Linux)
"EE_ error codes (EE_DELETE, EE_WRITE) end up in the binlog, making slave stop".
The problem was that during execution of the command on the master, an error
can occur (for example, not space left on device, then mysqld waits and when
there is space it completes successfully: so finally it worked but the error
EE_WRITE remains in thd->net.last_errno and thd->net.last_error).
To know if finally the command succeeded, we test the 'error' variable in
every place, and if it shows no failure we reset thd->net.last_err* using
the function THD::clear_error() which is backported from 4.1.
A new test to see if now only real errors get to the binlog (note: the test
uses "rm").
Also a bit of memory free/alloc saving in log_event.cc (do not free the whole
mem_root after every query in the slave SQL thread: we can keep the initial
block of it; which will be freed when the thread terminates).
Fixed problem with char > 128 in QUOTE() function. (Bug #1868)
Disable creation of symlinks if my_disable_symlink is set
Fixed searching of TEXT with end space. (Bug #1651)
Fixed caching bug in multi-table-update where same table was used twice. (Bug #1711)
Fixed problem with UNIX_TIMESTAMP() for timestamps close to 0. (Bug #1998)
Fixed timestamp.test
