Bug#28317 Left Outer Join with {oj outer-join}
Parser rejects ODBC's escape sequences for outer joins other than left outer join, yet the escape sequence BNF specifies that this syntax can be used for left, right, and full outer join syntax. The problem is that although the MySQL Connector/ODBC advertises "Outer Join Escape Sequence" capabilities, the parsing is done in the server and historically it only supported this syntax for left outer joins and applications such as Crystal Reports 11 tries to use this syntax for inner joins. The chosen solution is to reorganize a couple of parser rules to ignore any kind of SQL escape sequence. Ignoring the escape sequences is harmless because the various SQL join clauses are supported by the server. mysql-test/r/parser.result: Add test case result for Bug#28317 mysql-test/t/parser.test: Add test case for Bug#28317 sql/sql_yacc.yy: Reorganize rules in order to ignore SQL Escape Sequences
