• Stored procedure and function parameters, and stored program local variables. SeeSection 13.6.4, “Variables in Stored Programs”.

• System variables. SeeSection 5.1.7, “Server System Variables”. System variables also can be set at server startup, as described inSection 5.1.8, “Using System Variables”.

User-defined variables are created locally within a session and exist only within the context of that session; seeSection 9.4, “User-Defined Variables”.

A user-defined variable is written as@var_name and is assigned an expression value as follows:

SET @var_name =expr;

Examples:

SET @name = 43;SET @total_tax = (SELECT SUM(tax) FROM taxable_transactions);

As demonstrated by those statements,expr can range from simple (a literal value) to more complex (the value returned by a scalar subquery).

The Performance Schemauser_variables_by_thread table contains information about user-defined variables. SeeSection 25.12.10, “Performance Schema User-Defined Variable Tables”.

SET applies to parameters and local variables in the context of the stored object within which they are defined. The following procedure uses theincrement procedure parameter andcounter local variable:

CREATE PROCEDURE p(increment INT)BEGIN  DECLARE counter INT DEFAULT 0;  WHILE counter < 10 DO    -- ... do work ...    SET counter = counter + increment;  END WHILE;END;

The MySQL server maintains system variables that configure its operation. A system variable can have a global value that affects server operation as a whole, a session value that affects the current session, or both. Many system variables are dynamic and can be changed at runtime using theSET statement to affect operation of the current server instance. (To make a global system variable setting permanent so that it applies across server restarts, you should also set it in an option file.)

If you change a session system variable, the value remains in effect within your session until you change the variable to a different value or the session ends. The change has no effect on other sessions.

If you change a global system variable, the value is remembered and used to initialize the session value for new sessions until you change the variable to a different value or the server exits. The change is visible to any client that accesses the global value. However, the change affects the corresponding session value only for clients that connect after the change. The global variable change does not affect the session value for any current client sessions (not even the session within which the global value change occurs).

The following discussion describes the syntax options for setting system variables:

To set a global system variable value to the compiled-in MySQL default value or a session system variable to the current corresponding global value, set the variable to the valueDEFAULT. For example, the following two statements are identical in setting the session value ofmax_join_size to the current global value:

SET @@SESSION.max_join_size = DEFAULT;SET @@SESSION.max_join_size = @@GLOBAL.max_join_size;

To display system variable names and values:

If any variable assignment in aSET statement fails, the entire statement fails and no variables are changed.

SET produces an error under the circumstances described here. Most of the examples showSET statements that use keyword syntax (for example,GLOBAL orSESSION), but the principles are also true for statements that use the corresponding modifiers (for example,@@GLOBAL. or@@SESSION.).

ASET statement can contain multiple variable assignments, separated by commas. This statement assigns a value to a user-defined variable and a system variable:

SET @x = 1, SESSION sql_mode = '';

If you set multiple system variables in a single statement, the most recentGLOBAL orSESSION keyword in the statement is used for following assignments that have no keyword specified.

Examples of multiple-variable assignment:

SET GLOBAL sort_buffer_size = 1000000, SESSION sort_buffer_size = 1000000;SET @@GLOBAL.sort_buffer_size = 1000000, @@LOCAL.sort_buffer_size = 1000000;SET GLOBAL max_connections = 1000, sort_buffer_size = 1000000;

The@@GLOBAL.,@@SESSION., and@@ modifiers apply only to the immediately following system variable, not any remaining system variables. This statement sets thesort_buffer_size global value to 50000 and the session value to 1000000:

SET @@GLOBAL.sort_buffer_size = 50000, sort_buffer_size = 1000000;

To refer to the value of a system variable in expressions, use one of the@@-modifiers. For example, you can retrieve system variable values in aSELECT statement like this:

SELECT @@GLOBAL.sql_mode, @@SESSION.sql_mode, @@sql_mode;
