示例

CREATE TABLE t1 (id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT);

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.11 sec)

INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (NULL);

Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec)

SELECT * FROM t1;

+----+
| id |
+----+
|  1 |

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

ALTER TABLE t1 ADD COLUMN c1 INT NOT NULL;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.28 sec)

SELECT * FROM t1;

+----+----+
| id | c1 |
+----+----+
|  1 |  0 |
+----+----+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

ALTER TABLE t1 ADD c2 INT NOT NULL AFTER c1;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.28 sec)

SELECT * FROM t1;

+----+----+----+
| id | c1 | c2 |

|  1 |  0 |  0 |

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

MySQL 兼容性

不支持将新添加的列设为 PRIMARY KEY。
不支持将新添加的列设为 AUTO_INCREMENT。
对添加生成列有局限性，具体可参考：生成列局限性。
