Drop all stored procedures in MySQL or using temporary stored procedures

Question

Is there a statement that can drop all stored procedures in MySQL? Alternatively (if the first one is not possible), is there such thing as temporary stored procedures in My

Answer 1

I can almost get working a piece of code to drop all stored procs, but I think MySQL isn't letting me use a LOOP or a CURSOR outside of a stored procedure.

I can write a SQL file that counts the number of stored procedures for a given schema, and I have the code to iterate through the table and drop procedures, but I can't get it to run:

SELECT COUNT(ROUTINE_NAME)
  INTO @remaining
  FROM information_schema.ROUTINES
  WHERE ROUTINE_SCHEMA = SCHEMA()
    AND ROUTINE_TYPE = 'FUNCTION';

kill_loop: LOOP
  IF @remaining < 1 THEN
    LEAVE kill_loop;
  END IF;
  SELECT ROUTINE_NAME
    INTO @cur_func_name
    FROM information_schema.ROUTINES
    WHERE ROUTINE_SCHEMA = SCHEMA()
      AND ROUTINE_TYPE = 'FUNCTION'
    LIMIT 1;
  DROP FUNCTION @cur_func_name;
  @remaining = @remaining - 1;
END LOOP;
