Thread: CREATE TABLE synopsis

The CREATE TABLE synopsis shows this:

CREATE [ [ GLOBAL | LOCAL ] { TEMPORARY | TEMP } ] TABLE table_name ( { column_name data_type [ DEFAULT default_expr ]
[column_constraint [ ... ] ]   | table_constraint   | LIKE parent_table [ { INCLUDING | EXCLUDING } DEFAULTS ] }  [,
...]
 
)

However, we now allow zero-column tables, so it should actually be

CREATE [ [ GLOBAL | LOCAL ] { TEMPORARY | TEMP } ] TABLE table_name ( [ column_name data_type [ DEFAULT default_expr ]
[column_constraint [ ... ] ]   | table_constraint   | LIKE parent_table [ { INCLUDING | EXCLUDING } DEFAULTS ] ]  [,
...]
 
)

Right?

Right, fixed in create_table.sgml. I don't think it is any other place.
