Hello Alexander, This is the patch for CHR(). Function CHR(n) returns the character having the binary equivalent to n in the database character set. Returns null on null input. Regard, Jérôme.

[Maria-developers] MDEV-10142 - bb-10.2-compatibility / MDEV-10574
by jerome brauge 28 Apr '17

28 Apr '17

Hello Alexander, Sometime ago, when I ask you about plan for MDEV-10574, you replied : >The current plan is to do these transformations: > >1. Transform Insert >- insert values ("") -> insert values (null) > >2. Transform Select > >- where v=x => (v <> "" and V=X) >- where v is null => (v="" or v is null) > >We didn't plan to change functions yet. Thanks for bringing this up. >We'll discuss this. I've done some tests just by changing : - insert an Item_null instead of an Item_string when $1.length==0 in rule text_literal of sql_yacc_ora.yy - return null instead of an empty string in Item_str_func::make_empty_result My first tests seem promising. Of course this solution does not allow to "see" the records created with empty strings as null values. I don't see the importance of being able to do this in a transparent way. We can explicitly select these row by adding rtrim on these columns. If you are interesting, I can begin to write a test to evaluate the coverage of this solution. Best regard. Jérôme.
