Details

    Description

      If a column check is defined as a separate constraint (not as a part of a column definition), the column cannot be dropped:

      MariaDB [test]> create table t1 (a int, b int, check(a>0));
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.63 sec)
       
      MariaDB [test]> show create table t1 \G
      *************************** 1. row ***************************
             Table: t1
      Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t1` (
        `a` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
        `b` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
        CONSTRAINT `CONSTRAINT_1` CHECK (a>0)
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
