It supports defining generated columns in a new table.

The CREATE TABLE statement has limited support for generated columns.

If it is enabled, then an error will be raised instead.

If it is not enabled, then a warning will be raised and the default generated value will be used instead. If a generated column is explicitly set to any other value, then the outcome depends on whether strict mode is enabled in sql_mode.

However, VIRTUAL or PERSISTENT generated columns cannot be explicitly set to any other values than NULL or DEFAULT.Generated columns can be referenced in the INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements.The SELECT statement supports generated columns.If other columns in a row are queried, but the VIRTUAL generated column is not one of the queried columns, then the column's value is not generated. Instead, the value is generated dynamically whenever the column is queried. Values for VIRTUAL generated columns are not stored in the table.This value can be read by other DML queries just like the other 'real' columns. This generates the columns value, and it is stored in the table like the other 'real' columns. Values for PERSISTENT generated columns are generated whenever a DML queries inserts or updates the row with the special DEFAULT value.However, VIRTUAL and PERSISTENT generated columns differ in how their data is stored.Generated columns are used in DML queries just as if they were 'real' columns.If an index is defined on a generated column, then the optimizer considers using it in the same way as indexes based on 'real' columns.Defining indexes on both VIRTUAL and PERSISTENT generated columns is supported.

If you try to use an unsupported clause, then you will see an error similar to the following:ĮRROR 1905 (HY000): Cannot define foreign key with ON UPDATE SET NULL clause on a computed column

However, using the ON UPDATE CASCADE, ON UPDATE SET NULL, or ON DELETE SET NULL clauses is not supported.

Referencing PERSISTENT generated columns as part of a foreign key is also supported.

Using PERSISTENT generated columns as part of a foreign key is supported.

If you try to use one as a primary key, then you will see an error similar to the following:ĮRROR 1903 (HY000): Primary key cannot be defined upon a computed column

Using a generated column as a table's primary key is not supported.

Until MariaDB 10.2.25, it was supported, but this support was removed, because it would not work correctly.

Using the AUTO_INCREMENT column option is not supported when defining generated columns.

Using the ZEROFILL column option is supported when defining generated columns.

All data types are supported when defining generated columns.

However, a column in a MERGE table can not be defined as a VIRTUAL and PERSISTENT generated column.

A column in a MERGE table can be built on a PERSISTENT generated column.

InnoDB, Aria, MyISAM and CONNECT support generated columns.

If you try to use a storage engine that does not support them, then you will see an error similar to the following:ĮRROR 1910 (HY000): TokuDB storage engine does not support computed columns

Generated columns can only be used with storage engines which support them.

Supported Features Storage Engine Support Generated columns are also sometimes called computed columns or virtual columns. Instead, the value is generated dynamically when the table is queried.

VIRTUAL: This type's value is not stored at all.

STORED): This type's value is actually stored in the table.

There are two types of generated columns: This expression might generate the value based on the values of other columns in the table, or it might generate the value by calling built-in functions or user-defined functions (UDFs). Instead, its value is automatically generated based on an expression. DescriptionĪ generated column is a column in a table that cannot explicitly be set to a specific value in a DML query. In MariaDB 10.2 and later, the syntax is also compatible with the syntax for MySQL's generated columns. MariaDB's generated columns syntax is designed to be similar to the syntax for Microsoft SQL Server's computed columns and Oracle Database's virtual columns. Implementation Differences Compared to Microsoft SQL Server.
