although Procedure do not return anything but are there any methods through which we can Store Output of stored procedure on to a Temporary Table. Following case applies to a sub procedure.
scenario We are calling this sub procedure in the main procedure and we want to store the output of the sub procedure into the temporary table.
Eg

)

we want the output of subproc E to be stored in to a temporary table so that we can use the temp table in our main prcedure ABC.

Here is the test case for the same..

DELIMITER $$
 
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `E`$$
 
CREATE PROCEDURE `E`()
BEGIN
        CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE IF NOT EXISTS uTemp(id int not null, name varchar(10));
        INSERT INTO uTemp VALUES(1,'ushastry');
 
END$$
 
DELIMITER ;
 
DELIMITER $$
 
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `ABC`$$
 
CREATE PROCEDURE `ABC`()
BEGIN
        CALL `ushastry`.`E`;
        SELECT * FROM uTemp;
 
END$$
 
DELIMITER ;
 
### Usage
 
call ABC;
