create db as innodb in mysql

I knew that we can set innodb as engine tables. But can we add this same create database query.

I tried this:

开发者_开发问答create database 'mydb' set engine='Innodb'

but it throws error.

Thanks.

That concept does not exist: databases don't have engines; tables do.

Update:

The closest you can achieve is to change the default engine for CREATE TABLE statements that don't specify one, it's explained at: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/storage-engine-setting.html
