◆ parse()

bool anonymous_namespace{item_strfunc.cc}::parse ( THD thd,
Item statement_expr,
String statement_string 
)

Parses a string and fills the token buffer.

The parser function THD::sql_parser() is called directly instead of parse_sql(), as the latter assumes that it is called with the intent to record the statement in performance_schema and later execute it, neither of which is called for here. In fact we hardly need the parser to calculate a digest, since it is calculated from the token stream. There are only some corner cases where NULL is sometimes a literal and sometimes an operator, as in IS NULL, IS NOT NULL.

Parameters
thdSession object used by the parser.
statement_exprThe expression that evaluates to something that can be parsed. Needed for error messages in case we don't want to disclose what it evaluates to.
statement_stringThe non-NULL string resulting from evaluating statement_expr. The caller is preferred to do this as this function doesn't deal with NULL values.
Return values
trueError.
falseAll went well, the digest information is in THD::m_digest.
