MySQL 5.0.2 Default Value

[Jason L. McAffee]

            The MySQL manual states that as of MySQL 5.0.2 "If the
column cannot take NOT NULL as the value, MySQL defines the column with
no explicit DEFAULT clause."  How are the default values then backed-up?
I did not see any statements defining the default values.  Will I have
to re-create the default values if my database becomes corrupted?  

 

Thank you,
