Can't declare variable in stored procedure phpmyadmin | mysql

Question

I wanted to create a stored procedure that has a variable in it, so I made this

CREATE PROCEDURE SPTest()
BEGIN
    DECLARE @var INT;
END

But it gave me an error

#1064 - 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 '@var INT' at line 3

I've tried all the answer from stackoverflow, I'm using phpmyadmin version 4.5.4.1 and it says up to date. How can I solve this? Thanks in advance

Answer 1

use delimiter :

delimiter 
CREATE PROCEDURE SPTest()
BEGIN
    DECLARE @var INT;
END
| 
delimiter ;

Answer 2

I believe your problem is twofold; the use of @ in the variable name doesn't seem to be supported by MySQL, which is compounded by an apparent phpMyAdmin bug which is causing phpMyAdmin to fail even if the SQL is valid.

I had luck at the command line using this statement:

DELIMITER &
CREATE PROCEDURE SPTest()
BEGIN
    DECLARE v INT;
END
&
DELIMITER ;
