creating new DB from a database dump always fails because the constraints are in the wrong place!

If you right click on a DB and do "export" , select create database and create tables, it produces a file which has the FK constraints on each table creation, which will always fails because frequently table B has FK on A, and A has FK on B etc.

The constraints should all be created at the end of the file as ALTER statements.

Now I have a huge export which I have to hand edit to fix which will take hours.

Please could you fix this bug ASAP.

I cannot reproduce it :-?

My dumps include this as script header:

/*!40014 SET @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 */;

... and this as script footer:

/*!40014 SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=IF(@OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS IS NULL, 1, @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS) */;

That seems to address both potential problems (foreign key creation and data insertion), at least in my computer:

/*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
/*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 */;
/*!50503 SET NAMES utf8mb4 */;
/*!40014 SET @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_SQL_MODE=@@SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE='NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO' */;
