Invalid code has nonsense error line - it doesn't actually run changed code in build schema

[doug65536]

Delimiter set to GO:

CREATE TABLE ids (
    doc INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    rev INT NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (doc)
) GO

CREATE FUNCTION test(a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT BEGIN
  RETURN a + b;
END GO

CREATE FUNCTION test2(docId INT) RETURNS INT BEGIN
  DECLARE newId INT DEFAULT 0;

  UPDATE ids set rev=(newId = rev+1) WHERE doc = docId;
  IF ROW_COUNT() <> 1 THEN BEGIN
    SET newId = 1;
    INSERT INTO ids set doc=docId,rev=revId;
  END;

  RETURN newId;
END GO

Try building that schema. Try changing it (perhaps adding 10 or 20 blank lines after the create table, and building schema again. The error message will refer to a line that is now whitespace.

I know that the THEN BEGIN and END is wrong. The problem is, it is almost impossible to find errors in sqlfiddle when it gives you nonsense error lines.

You didn't indicate what kind of database you're using. The use of GO suggests SQL Server, but MySQL is the only one for which AUTO_INCREMENT is valid, so far as I know.

Why not link to the actual Fiddle that shows your problem?

Can I get a link when there is an error? On Jun 3, 2014 5:27 PM, "bladeoflight16" notifications@github.com wrote:

Hm. Well, I guess not if the error is in the schema. You can if it's in the query, though. Anyway, you still haven't said what database this is.

Reviewing my old bugs. Sorry I missed your request for information.

The bug persists (I just tried it today). This is what it says at the bottom:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
 corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'GO

CREATE FUNCTION test(a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT BEGIN
  RETURN a + b' at line 5

...which I know is not valid. Here's the important bit: after causing that error, edit the sql and add a bunch of empty lines before line 5. Then try to build the schema again. The error message will not update, it will still say the error is on line 5 (the message will not change).
