How to create a synonym in mysql

I have a view in database B which I use in database A.

I would like to create a synonym to this view. Because right now each time I have to write the query like this

Select * from DBNAME.VIEWNAME

rather I just want to be able to write

SELECT * FROM MYSYNONYMNAME

Is that possible to do in mysql? I didn't see much in the manual..

Solution

  • It's not possible to create synonyms in mysql like it's possible in Oracle
