DROP VIEW [IF EXISTS]view_name
[,view_name
] ... [RESTRICT | CASCADE]
DROP VIEW
removes one or more views. You must
have the DROP
privilege for each view. If any
of the views named in the argument list do not exist, MySQL
returns an error indicating by name which non-existing views it
was unable to drop, but it also drops all of the views in the list
that do exist.
The IF EXISTS
clause prevents an error from
occurring for views that don't exist. When this clause is given, a
NOTE
is generated for each non-existent view.
See Section 13.5.4.25, “SHOW WARNINGS
Syntax”.
RESTRICT
and CASCADE
, if
given, are parsed and ignored.
This statement was added in MySQL 5.0.1.
