How to constraint column of MySQL?

Question

like:

create table test(
    score integer unsigned between 1 and 100
...
);

Is it possible to do this in MySQL?

Answer 1

Mysql doesn't support CHECK constraints

You can create BEFORE UPDATE/INSERT TRIGGER with RAISE ERROR

EDIT: Raise Error with

SET new.score = 1 / 0;

Something like that:

CREATE TRIGGER testref BEFORE INSERT ON test1
  FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
    IF  NEW.score < 1 OR NEW.score > 100
              SET NEW.score = 1 / 0; 
  END;

Answer 2

In short: MySQL does not support CHECK constraints, although for compatibility with other engines it will parse them (but ignores them).
