Change of character set in ALTER COLUMN does not work (FB2.5)
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CORE-4213
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4213
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Charsets/Collation, Engine
    Affects Versions: 2.5.1
         Environment: Windows XP
            Reporter: Robert
            Priority: Minor


Testing with FB 2.5 (WI-V2.5.1.26351), also detected on FB 3.0 alpha

Test set:

/* create varchar column with character set ISO8859_1 */
ALTER TABLE MyTable
ADD MyColumn VARCHAR(50) CHARACTER SET ISO8859_1

/* change character set to ISO8859_2 */
ALTER TABLE MyTable
ALTER COLUMN MyColumn TYPE VARCHAR(50) CHARACTER SET ISO8859_2


Test result: no syntax error but character set is still ISO8859_1
Expected: ISO8859_2 (or syntax error that character set clause is not allowed)

Note: changing character set for domains works correctly.

Note: same error was reported under CORE-1058 but apparently only solved (and 
closed) 
for domains
