Hi Alexander!
I was looking through this patch as I am rather familiar with this code. I
didn't take time to test this out, but maybe you can explain if this is a
possible concern or not:

For Item_sum::register_sum_func, if sl->master_unit()->item is an
Item_sum_sum for example, an Item_sum won't have get_with_sum_func_cache()
overwritten so it will be the base Item::get_with_sum_func_cache(), which
returns null and you will crash. Am I missing something?
Is it impossible for sl->master_unit()->item to be an Item_sum_... subclass?
I am not a very big fan of the get_with_sum_func_cache() indirection
required and would prefer, if possible to call set_with_sum_func()
directly. Perhaps behind the scenes the set function can do that and throw
an assert if the call is illegal? (Just an opinion, not something I have a
very very strong opinion on.
Also, I have a feeling that it's sufficient to keep just
join_with_sum_func. I can't really think of a place where that was not the
intent anyway, but those few cases where copy_with_sum_func is used need to
be analysed throughly to make sure.

Vicențiu
PS: Yes, the review assigned to me is coming :)

Hello Sanja,
I recently worked on MDEV-16309 and had hard time to find which Item classes in the hierarchy: - have always with_sum_func==true - have always with_sum_func==false - have variable with_sum_func
To make it sure, before actually working on MDEV-16309, I had to create a separate working tree and did with Item::with_sum_func the same change that we previously did for Item::with_subselect in:
MDEV-14517 Cleanup for Item::with_subselect and Item::has_subquery() (which you reviewed)
- I find the code easier to read this way (instead of searching for all possible assignments, one can search who overrides the method) - Also, some Item can become smaller in size.
It's pity to throw the patch away. So perhaps we could just apply it.
Can you please have a look?
Thanks.
I the meanwhile I'll create a new MDEV for it (with a similar description to MDEV-14517) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : maria-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
