According to some internal communication, these two functions are place
holders for future enhancements. Because they use a variable number of
parameters, the implementation defined a reserved keyword for them in the
parser grammar.
Unfortunately, doing so creates a bug similar to Bug 21114 reported for the
function FORMAT.
In the 5.1 code base, due to improvements in the code implemented with bug
21114, having a reserved keyword for functions with a variable number of
arguments is not needed any more by the implementation.
As a result, this fix removes the place-holder implementation, and removes
the unnecessary reserved keywords. Should the functions UNIQUE_USERS and
GROUP_UNIQUE_USERS be finally implemented in a later release, the
implementation should sub class Create_native_func in sql/item_create.cc.
For example, see the class Create_func_concat.
from log):
When row-based logging is used, the CREATE-SELECT is written as two
parts: as a CREATE TABLE statement and as the rows for the table. For
both transactional and non-transactional tables, the CREATE TABLE
statement was written to the transaction cache, as were the rows, and
on statement end, the entire transaction cache was written to the binary
log if the table was non-transactional. For transactional tables, the
events were kept in the transaction cache until end of transaction (or
statement that were not part of a transaction).
For the case when AUTOCOMMIT=0 and we are creating a transactional table
using a create select, we would then keep the CREATE TABLE statement and
the rows for the CREATE-SELECT, while executing the following statements.
On a rollback, the transaction cache would then be cleared, which would
also remove the CREATE TABLE statement. Hence no table would be created
on the slave, while there is an empty table on the master.
This relates to BUG#22865 where the table being created exists on the
master, but not on the slave during insertion of rows into the newly
created table. This occurs since the CREATE TABLE statement were still
in the transaction cache until the statement finished executing, and
possibly longer if the table was transactional.
This patch changes the behaviour of the CREATE-SELECT statement by
adding an implicit commit at the end of the statement when creating
non-temporary tables. Hence, non-temporary tables will be written to the
binary log on completion, and in the even of AUTOCOMMIT=0, a new
transaction will be started. Temporary tables do not commit an ongoing
transaction: neither as a pre- not a post-commit.
The events for both transactional and non-transactional tables are
saved in the transaction cache, and written to the binary log at end
of the statement.
Problem: replication of LC_TIME_NAMES didn't work.
Thus, INSERTS or UPDATES using date_format() always
worked with en_US on the slave side.
Fix: adding ONE_SHOT implementation for LC_TIME_NAMES.
with other alterations causes lost tables
Using RENAME clause combined with other clauses of ALTER TABLE led to
data loss (the data was there but not accessible). This could happen if the
changes do not change the table much. Adding and droppping of fields and
indices was safe. Renaming a column with MODIFY or CHANGE was unsafe operation,
if the actual column didn't change (changing from int to int, which is a noop)
Depending on the storage engine (SE) the behavior is different:
1)MyISAM/MEMORY - the ALTER TABLE statement completes
without any error but next SELECT against the new table fails.
2)InnoDB (and every other transactional table) - The ALTER TABLE statement
fails. There are the the following files in the db dir -
`new_table_name.frm` and a temporary table's frm. If the SE is file
based, then the data and index files will be present but with the old
names. What happens is that for InnoDB the table is not renamed in the
internal DDIC.
Fixed by adding additional call to mysql_rename_table() method, which should
not include FRM file rename, because it has been already done during file
names juggling.
Backport of functionality in private 5.2 tree.
Added new language to parser, new mysql.servers table and associated code
to be used by the federated storage engine to allow central connection information
per WL entry.
Fixed compiler warnings (detected by VC++):
- Removed not used variables
- Added casts
- Fixed wrong assignments to bool
- Fixed wrong calls with bool arguments
- Added missing argument to store(longlong), which caused wrong store method to be called.
- Removed not used variables
- Changed some ulong parameters/variables to ulonglong (possible serious bug)
- Added casts to get rid of safe assignment from longlong to long (and similar)
- Added casts to function parameters
- Fixed signed/unsigned compares
- Added some constructores to structures
- Removed some not portable constructs
Better fix for bug Bug #21428 "skipped 9 bytes from file: socket (3)" on "mysqladmin shutdown"
(Added new parameter to net_clear() to define when we want the communication buffer to be emptied)
Problems (appear only under some circumstances):
1. we get a reference to a deleted table searching in the
thd->handler_tables_hash in the mysql_ha_read().
2. DBUG_ASSERT(table->file->inited == handler::NONE); assert fails in the
close_thread_table().
Fix: end open index scans and table scans and remove references to the
tables from the handler tables hash. After this preparation it is safe
to close the tables. The close can no longer fail on open index/table
scans and the closed table will not be used again by handler functions.
Moved .progress files into the log directory
Moved 'cluster' database tables into the MySQL database, to not have 'cluster' beeing a reserved database name
Fixed bug where mysqld got a core dump when trying to use a table created by MySQL 3.23
Fixed some compiler warnings
Fixed small memory leak in libmysql
Note that this doesn't changeset doesn't include the new mysqldump.c code required to run some tests. This will be added when I merge 5.0 to 5.1
The problem was that any VIEW columns had always implicit derivation.
Fix: derivation is now copied from the original expression
given in VIEW definition.
For example:
- a VIEW column which comes from a string constant
in CREATE VIEW definition have now coercible derivation.
- a VIEW column having COLLATE clause
in CREATE VIEW definition have now explicit derivation.
