How to get mysqli working with DELIMITERs in SQL statements?

Question

I\'m using mysqli and trying now to get a view from an SQL code snippet (generated by MySQL Workbench) into a database.

$query = <<

This is the source that helped me understand this... http://zend-framework-community.634137.n4.nabble.com/Problems-changing-the-sql-end-of-statement-delimiter-tp2124060p2124276.html

DELIMITER is not an actual MySQL Statement.

I believe it is just something that some MySQL clients have implemented to help shipping a bunch of sql statements at the same time.

mysqli driver does not implement this functionality.

So, this should work.

$query = <<

I ran into the same problem, with the same mysqli driver, with multi_query function (using delimiters while creating procedures) and removing the DELIMITER from my SQL worked.
