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.
max_user_connections is not set - that is no limit - so that when
max_user_connections is set (with SET) old connections are also
taken into account
mutexes are added where appropriate
URGENT: MONTY AND SERGEI should check this patch! The patch fixes the memory corruption reported by a user. It happened because the code did not keep correct a count of how many connections a user has, and the user object got freed too soon if the same user had more than 1 connection. Also fix a typo by Sanja: 'and' is not a C operator, I think it should be &&
query_alloc_block_size, query_prealloc_size, range_alloc_block_size,transaction_alloc_block_size and transaction_prealloc_size
Add more checks for "out of memory" detection in range optimization
handling of init-file option added to embedded library
main problem was killing of output (resulting recordsets etc)
i added checks for empty output in Protocol:: methods
better solution could be special Protocol_nul class to redirect
results to nowhere
