RE: CREATE TABLE issue?

2002-12-20 Thread Adolfo Bello
Missing TYPE=INNODB in create table statement.

MySQL parses references for type MyISAM but doesn't use them.

Hi again :)

I found the following mysql stuff in the MySQL manual in a section 
explaining how to do relationships.

CREATE TABLE persons (
id SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name CHAR(60) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

CREATE TABLE shirts (
id SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
style ENUM('t-shirt', 'polo', 'dress') NOT NULL,
color ENUM('red', 'blue', 'orange', 'white', 'black') NOT NULL,
owner SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL REFERENCES persons,

);

What's the point of the "REFERENCES persons" bit at the end of the 
definition of table "Shirts"? It doesn't seem to do anything.

Right, you can leave it out.

CREATE TABLE issue?

2002-12-20 Thread Jeff Snoxell
Hi again :)

I found the following mysql stuff in the MySQL manual in a section 
explaining how to do relationships.

CREATE TABLE persons (
id SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name CHAR(60) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

CREATE TABLE shirts (
id SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
style ENUM('t-shirt', 'polo', 'dress') NOT NULL,
color ENUM('red', 'blue', 'orange', 'white', 'black') NOT NULL,
owner SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL REFERENCES persons,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

What's the point of the "REFERENCES persons" bit at the end of the 
definition of table "Shirts"? It doesn't seem to do anything.
