Hi! Debugging CORE-4213, I found that ALTER DOMAIN uses the default database charset.
-- Database default charset is WIN1252. -- OK: Domain is created with WIN1252. create domain d as varchar(10); -- OK: Charset of domain is changed. alter domain d type varchar(10) character set utf8; -- Not OK: Charset of domain is changed to WIN1252 (NONE if there is no default charset) alter domain d type varchar(10); IMO, this is error prone. When one is altering the column length, it's easy to miss the charset and change it without knowing. Comments?
