WL#5083: Error for character set conversion failure
Affects: Server-Prototype Only
—
Status: Un-Assigned
The following should be an error, not a warning: mysql> create table tj (s1 char(10) character set sjis); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.52 sec) mysql> set sql_mode=ansi; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec) mysql> insert into tj values (0x8080); Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec) (The above causes a warning 1366 "Incorrect string value ..." which is an error if strict.) What [some Japanese users] really want is that we accept the junk character, but I can't think of a good way, and they indicated that "at least" an error should be there. This is applicable for all character sets. Why this was moved from WL#3090 ------------------------------- This requirement was originally part of WL#3090 Japanese Character Set Adjustments. The earlier suggestion was that there should be an error for Japanese character sets, but in MySQL private emails with subject line "Re: WL#3090 Japanese Character Set Adjustments" this conversation took place: PETER> * Give an error message for a conversion failure, PETER> even if sql_mode <> strict. PETER> This was a request from long ago. PETER> I'm not sure whether anybody cares any more. PETER> It's easy, but I wonder whether we should make PETER> this change for all character PETER> sets, or only for sjis, ujis, cp932, and eucjpms. BAR> I don't like to make the Japanese character sets make in a special way BAR> regarding error/warning. Perhaps we should move it into a separate WL, BAR> for all character sets.
