Issue with view definition in MariaDB 10.1.18
I encountered a rewriting problem of view definition in MariaDB 10.1.18.
set names utf8;
create table test(bins varbinary(10));
create view test_view as select hex(coalesce(bins, '')) as bins from test;
show create view test_view;
VIEW `test_view` AS select hex(coalesce(convert(`test`.`bins` using utf8),'')) AS `bins` from `test`
MariaDB will rewrite the view definition by adding convert in the function of coalesce. However, we should not convert the varbinary field to utf8. Can you help investigate the problem? Thanks.
