Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values
time_format() claimed %H and %k would return at most two digits (hours 0-23), but this coincided neither with actual behaviour nor with docs. this is not visible in simple queries; forcing a temp-table is probably the easiest way to see this. adjusted the return-length appropriately; the alternative would be to adjust the docs to say that behaviour for > 99 hours is undefined. --- Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values time_format() claimed %H and %k would return at most two digits (hours 0-23), but this coincided neither with actual behaviour nor with docs. this is not visible in simple queries; forcing a temp-table is probably the easiest way to see this. adjusted the return-length appropriately; the alternative would be to adjust the docs to say that behaviour for > 99 hours is undefined. mysql-test/r/func_time.result: Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values show time_format() handles %H and %k correctly four > 99 hours mysql-test/t/func_time.test: Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values show time_format() handles %H and %k correctly four > 99 hours sql/item_timefunc.cc: Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values unbreak promises we make about field-length of %H and %k in time_format() so they coincide with the actual range rather than just 0..23. the docs say we must operate outside that range, so we'd better do it right. --- Bug#19844: time_format in Union truncates values unbreak promises we make about field-length of %H and %k in time_format() so they coincide with the actual range rather than just 0..23. the docs say we must operate outside that range, so we'd better do it right. One digit values are padded to two digits with %H, "longer" values are handled correctly up to seven digits including any sign. (clarified comments as per jimw's suggestion.)
