Thanks for your help! We appreciate your contributions very much.
The idea of your merge patch is absolutely correct:
to have "default_table_charset" and "used_fields" in the same structure.
However, I think I'll resolve this merge conflict in a slightly
different way.
Instead of moving "used_fields" into Schema_specification_st,
I'll just put move the new methods into HA_CREATE_INFO.
Let me explain why:
In 10.1 we split HA_CREATE_INFO into two parts:
- Schema_specification_st
- Table_scope_and_contents_source_st
The reasons to do this were:
- To avoid passing unnecessary information into functions and methods
- To save on the involved structures initialization
- To remove some duplicate code
mysql_create_db() and mysql_alter_db() need only the
Schema_specification_st part,
while the entire HA_CREATE_INFO was passed in 10.0 and earlier into
these functions.
Before being passed to the above functions, HA_CREATE_INFO was initialized
with bzero(). sizeof(HA_CREATE_INFO) is 304 bytes, while
sizeof(Schema_specification_st)
is only 8 bytes at the moment. So most of initialization was not really
necessary.
I don't want to move "used_fields" from Table_scope_and_contents_source_st
to Schema_specification_st for exactly the same reason:
because mysql_create_db() and mysql_alter_db() don't need it.
So let's keep "used_fields" in Table_scope_and_contents_source_st, and
just move the new methods to the HA_CREATE_INFO level, which has
access to both "used_fields" and "default_table_charset".
I'll push a patch in a few minutes hopefully.
Running tests at the moment.
