無法刪除MySQL外鍵約束所需的索引
<p>我需要修改我的現有資料庫以新增一列。因此,我還想更新UNIQUE字段以包含該新列。我試圖刪除目前的索引,但一直收到錯誤訊息 <code>MySQL Cannot drop index needed in a foreign key constraint</code></p>
<pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false;">CREATE TABLE mytable_a (
ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
Name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE(Name)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE mytable_b (
ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
Name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE(Name)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE mytable_c (
ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,

UNIQUE(Name)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
