BIT columns and MySQLi

Ilia and I have been bouncing back and forth on bug #37671 (MySQLi extension fails to recognize BIT columns)[1] between "yes it's fixed", "no it isn't!" for some time now. I'm curious which one of us the experience of others agrees with. Ilia seems to be able to get a working result with the current PHP_5_2 code, while I can't. Can anyone share some insight into this?

I hate to bring this up again, but with 5.2 heading towards RC1 and no answers in sight, I really would like a resolution here. I've been patching my PHP builds ever since I switched to MySQL 5 databases just for this issue. The solution I'm using is at the end of this message (the same patch works against PHP_5_2 and HEAD; this one specifically was run against HEAD. It requires only a tiny modification to work against php_5_1_4, which is what I'm using now; against 5_1_4 there's no need to - out the incorrect handling). It seems to work in 100% of cases I've tested. The current code in 5_2 and HEAD, which folds it into LONG types, does NOT work correctly. Can someone please either commit something like this or tell me why they refuse to? --- mysqli_api.c 12 Jul 2006 10:15:30 -0000 1.129 +++ mysqli_api.c 13 Jul 2006 16:29:00 -0000 @@ -294,9 +294,6 @@ case MYSQL_TYPE_LONG: case MYSQL_TYPE_INT24: case MYSQL_TYPE_YEAR: -#if MYSQL_VERSION_ID > 50002 - case MYSQL_TYPE_BIT: -#endif convert_to_long_ex(args[i]); stmt->result.buf[ofs].type = IS_LONG; /* don't set stmt->result.buf [ofs].buflen to 0, we used ecalloc */ @@ -308,10 +305,13 @@ break; case MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG: +#if MYSQL_VERSION_ID > 50002 + case MYSQL_TYPE_BIT: +#endif stmt->result.buf[ofs].type = IS_STRING; stmt->result.buf[ofs].buflen = sizeof (my_ulonglong); stmt->result.buf[ofs].val = (char *) emalloc(stmt->result.buf[ofs].buflen); - bind[ofs].buffer_type = MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG; + bind[ofs].buffer_type = col_type; // MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG; bind[ofs].buffer = stmt->result.buf [ofs].val; bind[ofs].is_null = &stmt-
