Doesn't have much effect in practice, because charset and collation
are already hardcoded on an ALTER TABLE level (field definitions),
which take priority. Since most MySQL installs will still default
to a latin1 encoding, this propagates to the table though,
confusing devs and in some cases causing wrong data.
Example: A MSSQL->MySQL DB migration tool used the table metadata
to determine the charset, creating encoding issues.
In terms of hardcoding, we don't really support anything other than UTF8,
and the field-level settings are already hardcoded.
We should probably remove the field-specific settings and rely
on the DB defaults, but that's a sensitive API change
(need to set on existing DBs during upgrade).
The function "first" on ArrayList uses the PHP function "reset", which
returns false if there aren't any elements in the array. Two functions
inside ArrayList use this function, "canFilterBy" and "byID". I've
changed these functions to catch the possibility of a false return from
first().
Commit 964b3f2 fixed an issue where dbObject was returning casting helpers for
fields that were not actually DB objects, but had something in $casting config.
However, because dbObject was no longer calling DataObject->castingHelper, this
exposed a bug that the underlying function db($fieldName) was not returning
field specs for the base fields that are created by SS automatically on all
DataObjects (i.e. Created, LastEdited, etc).
This commit fixes the underlying issue that DataObject->db($fieldName) should
return the field specs for *all* DB fields like its documentation says it will,
including those base fields that are automatically created and do not appear in
$db.
Since ViewableData was returning a casting helper for Link, but DataObject was
only using $this->$fieldname to set values on that casting helper, you could
not use <% if Link %> (or <% if $Link %>) in your templates because Link is not
a field, and thus had no value to be set on the casting helper, causing
hasValue to think that there was no value. Since DataObject->dbObject says that
"it only matches fields and not methods", it seems safe to have it call db(..)
to get the field spec, and not call ViewableData->castingHelper at all.
SQLQuery->setLimit(0, 99) should result in "SELECT ... LIMIT 0 OFFSET 1".
In fact it does "SELECT ..." without a LIMIT clause at all,
which is unexpected. This is regardless of the $offset value.
In large sites this can take a very long time, drastically slowing down the CMS
admin. Even though the versions will then need to be queried individually,
this is still significantly faster than loading hundreds of thousands of
version numbers in one query and populating the cache array.
This caused problems when duplicate() was used in the CMS UI
to duplicate a SiteTree object. Since every object of this type
has a ParentID relation, it copied this empty relation into
new "ghost page".

For that issue, we needed to have the DataQuery as the second parameter to
DataQuery's augmentSQL call. Fortunately, DataQuery was already passing this
argument. However, where the function was defined in DataExtension, the
argument was not present. Thus, subclasses of DataExtension could not add the
parameter to their function signature if they were running in PHP strict mode
because PHP will complain that the signatures don't match.
This resulted in Object extensions not working for it, and methods not existing
where they should have. It also resulted in poor error messages appearing when
thrown from Object since $this->class was empty since the constructor was never
called in Object.
Cleanup of framework's use of @package and @subpackage labels and additional of labels for classes missing packages.
Moved all GridField related components to the one name.
Countless spelling fixes, grammar for other comments.
Link ClassName references in file headers.
