Is it possible to call stored procedure in view?

Question

A similar question about sql-server has been asked here . I'm wondering if its possible in MySql.

edit:

I want to use result set returned from procedure in view.

Answer 1

If you want to get result-set and use routine in FROM clause - NO. Stored routines (procedures or functions) in MySQL cannot return tables as result value.

But you can use functions as simple values, for example -

DELIMITER $$

CREATE FUNCTION mul10(Param1 INT)
RETURNS INT(11)
BEGIN
  RETURN Param1 * 10;
END
$$

DELIMITER ;

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW view1
AS
SELECT mul10(2) AS column1;

SELECT column1 FROM view1;
