如何在mysql中创建一个表值函数

Question

我正在从SqlServer 2008迁移到MySql，我有很多存储过程使用分割varchar的通用表值函数。 sqlserver函数声明是：

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fnSplit](
    @sInputList VARCHAR(8000)       -- List of delimited items
  , @sDelimiter VARCHAR(8000) = ',' -- delimiter that separates items
) RETURNS @List TABLE (item varchar(50))

/* SAMPLE
select * from fnSplit('12 345 67',' ')
select * from fnSplit('12##34#5##67','##')
*/

BEGIN

    DECLARE @sItem VARCHAR(8000)

    WHILE CHARINDEX(@sDelimiter,@sInputList,0) <> 0
    BEGIN
        SELECT  @sItem=RTRIM(LTRIM(SUBSTRING(@sInputList,1,CHARINDEX(@sDelimiter,@sInputList,0)-1))),
@sInputList=RTRIM(LTRIM(SUBSTRING(@sInputList,CHARINDEX(@sDelimiter,@sInputList,0)+LEN(@sDelimiter),LEN(@sInputList))))

        IF LEN(@sItem) > 0 
            INSERT INTO @List SELECT @sItem
    END 

    IF LEN(@sInputList) > 0
        INSERT INTO @List SELECT @sInputList -- Put the last item in

    RETURN
END
