Does MySQL support check constraint?
I am able to execute the following script in MySQL without error.
ALTER TABLE EMP_DB_DESIGN_EXCEL ADD (
CONSTRAINT CHK_EMP_IS_ACTIVE CHECK (IS_ACTIVE IN ('Y','N')));
But it is not reflected if I query:
SELECT * FROM information_schema.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS T where t.table_name='EMP_DB_DESIGN_EXCEL';

So far as I can tell from past usage and the manual, MySQL only supports PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE and FOREIGN KEY constraints, and these only if the table is an InnoDB table. Other storage types accept these constraints and store them after a fashion but do not enforce them. The kind of constraint you mention is not enforced; there appears to be some discussion on the MySQL website about it.
