Description:
Using "HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name NEXT" without "HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name = (value1,value2,...)" crash the service.

How to repeat:
-- Ok --
HANDLER tbl_name OPEN [ AS alias ]
HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name = (value1,value2,...)
HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name NEXT
HANDLER tbl_name CLOSE

-- Crash the service ---
HANDLER tbl_name OPEN [ AS alias ]
//HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name = (value1,value2,...) // <-- without this line
HANDLER tbl_name READ index_name NEXT // <-- here crash the service
HANDLER tbl_name CLOSE

Suggested fix:
I believe that it would have to return an error.

Verified with the latest BK 4.0 tree.

create table innhandler(id int primary key,
first_name varchar(10),
last_name varchar(10),
index(first_name,last_name))engine=innodb;

insert into innhandler values
(1,'aaa','bbb');

HANDLER innhandler OPEN as a;
HANDLER a READ first_name NEXT;

Hi!

Is the command sequence correct for HANDLER at all?

Regards,
Heikki
[27 Oct 2004 14:43] Andres Castiglia 
obviously the command sequence is incorrect, but don't must crash the service
[6 Dec 2004 20:19] Sergei Golubchik 
Heikki, I would prefer to have it fixed in the InnoDB (or rather in ha_innodb.cc).

FIxing it in the HANDLER command it rather easy in 4.1, but I would rather not to backport these changes to 4.0. Fixing in ha_innodb requires less code changes in the stable branch.

Monty wanted this as P1 since it can crash the Server
