Create stored procs in new DB from within a stored proc?

In our application, we dynamically create new databases using a stored
procedure. Each new database must have a few required stored procedures
created in it. Since SQL Server does not allow the specification of a
different database context for creation of procedures or functions, the
current workaround is to define a system stored procedure in Master that
creates the stored procs. We call this in the context of the new DB after it
is created. This works fine, but an approach that does not require the use o
f
any system databases would be preferred.
Is there a better way to accomplish this without Master or Model (in
pseudocode):
create procedure usp_NewDB
@.DBName
as
begin
create database @.DBName
create procedure @.DBName.dbo.SP1 as ...
create procedure @.DBName.dbo.SP2 as ...
endYou cannot do this with a variable in that way...

dynamic SQL, it is of creating a stored procedure in a different database
context. Regardless of dynamic SQL, the syntax CREATE PROCEDURE
<DBName>.dbo.<SPName> is not valid, since you cannot specify the database
name with CREATE PROCEDURE. Let me rephrase it for you more simply:
How can I create a stored procedure in Database_B from a stored procedure
running in Database_A?

Let me answer for you "more simply":
EXEC('USE '+@.DBName+'; CREATE PROCEDURE ... ');|||Aaron Bertrand [SQL Server MVP] wrote:

Remember people should EXPECT to get their questions answered promptly
and in a way they feel is appropriate, we have to make an effort
keeping them happy ;)

executing it would result in:
'CREATE/ALTER PROCEDURE' must be the first statement in a query batch.

The implication I got was, here idiot, since the original question was too
complex for you, let me dumb it down.|||Yes, if you can dynamic sql.
Context switch not change in stored procedure.
You can refer below my example
-- S2K SP3
DECLARE @.I_DB_NAME NVARCHAR(200)
SET @.I_DB_NAME='Demo'
DECLARE @.proc NVARCHAR(4000)
SELECT @.proc =QUOTENAME(@.I_DB_NAME) + '.dbo.sp_execresultset'
EXEC @.proc 'CREATE VIEW t2 AS SELECT GETDATE() D'

DECLARE @.sql VARCHAR(255);
SET @.sql = 'USE tempdb; EXEC(''CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.foo AS SELECT bar =
1'');';
EXEC(@.sql);
GO
EXEC tempdb.dbo.foo;
GO
USE tempdb;
GO
DROP PROCEDURE dbo.foo;
GO|||Aaron Bertrand [SQL Server MVP] skrev:

Yeah, I interpreted it the same was as you, and my reply was intended
to support you, in a somewhat humorously way. Not sure I succeeded
though :)
