GSoC (week 5)


Hello everyone,

Here is the list of things I have done in the 5th week of GSoC.

1.implemented unique key violation with a hash collision. (actual row
comparison is remaining ).

2.modified hash function for data types like varchar and binary data types.

3.fixed a bug which was causing a server to crash for complex unique keys.

4.added support to allow any number of nulls which will not cause any
unique key violation.

5.added test cases for above features.
