Oracle中的select语句可以用start with...connect by prior子句实现递归查询,connect by 是结构化查询中用到的,其基本语法是:
select ... from <TableName> where <Conditional-1>
start with <Conditional-2> connect by [prior] <Conditional-3>;
<Conditional-1>:过滤条件,用于对返回的所有记录进行过滤。
<Conditional-2>:查询结果重起始根结点的限定条件。
<Conditional-3>:连接条件
数据组织结构如下图:
------a-----a1
| |
| |----a2
|
|------b------b1
| |
| |------b2
数据库表结构如下:
create table t2(
root_id number,
id number,
name varchar(5),
description varchar2(10)
);
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(0,1,'a','aaa');
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(1,2,'a1','aaa1');
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(1,3,'a2','aaa2');
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(0,4,'b','bbb');
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(4,5,'b1','bbb1');
insert into t2(root_id,id,name,description) values(4,6,'b2','bbb2');
获取完整树:
select * from t2 start with root_id = 0 connect by prior id = root_id;
------a-----a1
| |
| |----a2
|
|------b------b1
| |
| |------b2
获取特定子树:
select * from t2 start with id = 1 connect by prior id = root_id;
------a-----a1
| |
| |----a2
|
select * from t2 start with id = 4 connect by prior id = root_id;
|------b------b1
| |
| |------b2
如果connect by prior中的prior被省略,则查询将不进行深层递归。
如:
select * from t2 start with root_id = 0 connect by id = root_id;
|------a
|
|------b
select * from t2 start with id = 1 connect by id = root_id;
如:
|------a
select t.*, level from t2 start with root_id =0 connect by id = prior root_id;
