MariaDB syntax error when using IF statements-CodePudding

I'm trying to create a stored procedure in MariaDB using the code below.

DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE P5();
BEGIN
IF 1=1 THEN
    SELECT 1;
END IF;
END//

When I run the code, I receive a syntax error

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ';

BEGIN
IF 1=1 THEN
    SELECT 1;
END IF;
END' at line 1

I realise that I could use an IF () function in this case, but I need to be able to use IF statements.

CodePudding user response：

No need of adding semicolon after procedure name.

DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE P5()
BEGIN
IF 1=1 THEN
    SELECT 1;
END IF;
END//
