Actually, I think their behavior is just "DDL issues a COMMIT", so that after that you are out of the transaction and the INSERT commits immediately. Some experimentation shows that mysql doesn't issue a warning for rollback-outside-a-transaction, so the lack of any complaint at the rollback step is just standard mysql-ism. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
