If a primary key is defined over column c of enum type then
the EXPLAIN command for a look-up query of the form
SELECT * FROM t WHERE c=0
said that the query was with an impossible where condition though the
query correctly returned non-empty result set when the table indeed
contained rows with error empty strings for column c.
This kind of misbehavior was due to a bug in the function
Field_enum::store(longlong,bool) that erroneously returned 1 if
the the value to be stored was equal to 0.
Note that the method
Field_enum::store(const char *from,uint length,CHARSET_INFO *cs)
correctly returned 0 if a value of the error empty string
was stored.
The Field_newdate::store when storing a DATETIME value was returning the
'value was cut' error even if the thd->count_cuted_fields flag is set to
CHECK_FIELD_IGNORE. This made range optimizr think that there is no
appropriate data in the table and thus to return an empty set.
Now the Field_newdate::store function returns conversion error only if the
thd->count_cuted_fields flag isn't set to CHECK_FIELD_IGNORE.
An assertion abort could occur for some grouping queries that employed
decimal user variables with assignments to them.
The problem appeared the constructors of the class Field_new_decimal
because the function my_decimal_length_to_precision did not guarantee
returning decimal precision not greater than DECIMAL_MAX_PRECISION.
leads to the table corruption
New Field::store() method implemented to explicitly set thd->count_cuted_fields
before value storing, instead of (incorrectly) setting it in the CSV storage engine.
Thread row counter now properly incremented during check and repair in the CSV engine.
Added --with-system-type=<systype> and --with-machine-type=<machtype>
options, to be able to override the one detected, for --version strings

C++ compatibility change for IBM VisualAge 6 and i5/OS
Coding style: classes start with a capital letter.
Rename some classes related to parsing:
create_field -> Create_field
foreign_key -> Foreign_key
key_part_spec -> Key_part_spec
wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20)
must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer.
This is what Field_string::store() does.
Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.
ENUM fields internally store their values as integers and may use integer
values as indexes to their values. Invalid values are mapped to zero value.
When storing an empty string the ENUM field fails to find an appropriate value
and tries to convert the provided string to integer. The conversion also
fails and error is returned even if the thd->count_cuted_fields is set to
CHECK_FIELD_IGNORE. This makes the range optimizer wrongly decide that an
impossible range is present.
Now the Field_enum::store() returns error while storing an empty string only
if the thd->count_cuted_fields isn't set to CHECK_FIELD_IGNORE.
Problem: Unicode->UJIS followed incorrect conversion
rules for U+00A5 YEN SIGN and U+203E OVERLINE,
so these characters were converted to ujis 0x8E5C
and 0x8E7E accordingly.
This behaviour would be correct for a JIS-X-0201 based character set,
but this is wrong for UJIS, which is documented as x-eucjp-unicode-0.9,
and which is based on ASCII for the range U+0000..U+007F.
Fix:
removing JIS-X-0201 conversion rules, making UJIS ASCII compatible.
YEN SIGN and OVERLINE do not have corresponding UJIS characters anymore
and converted to 0x3F QUESTION MARK, throwing a warning in appropriative cases.
This patch also includes a test covering full UJIS->Unicode->UJIS mapping.
Problem: altering a bit field we use Field::is_equal() to check if the bit
field is changed. Comparing the field type is not enough for bit fields.
Fix: add proper Field_bit::is_equal() that compares the field lengths as well.
When storing a large number to a FLOAT or DOUBLE field with fixed length, it could be incorrectly truncated if the field's length was greater than 31.
This patch also does some code cleanups to be able to reuse code which is common between Field_float::store() and Field_double::store().
