Description:
Hi,

On MySql Connector/NET 1.0.7, when you are running on a Turkish operating system, you may have difficulties with sql statements or stored procedures.

I have inspected and debugged the MySql Connector code, While it's trying to parse the parameters, lowers the parameter definition string and splits. But in Turkish culture settings, the char "I" is lowered to "ı" and "İ" is lowered to "i".

Especially in stored procedures, we use "IN p_paramname INT" and it creates problems while parsing like "ın p_paramname ınt".

How to repeat:
To repeat, change your regional settings to Turkish and use mysqlcommand and run a stored procedure takes at least one input parameter.

Suggested fix:
To fix, in run time before using mysql classes changing the thread's culture;

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;

OR by modifying MySql Connector source code;

In GetParameterParts function;

string[] split = Utility.ContextSplit(parameterDef.ToLower(), " \t\r\n", "");

to;

string[] split = Utility.ContextSplit(parameterDef.ToLower(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture), " \t\r\n", "");
