  我们可以通过START WITH . . . CONNECT BY . . .子句来实现SQL的 层次查询,而Oracle 10g 为其添加许多了新的伪列。十多年以来,Oracle SQL 具有依照层次关系进行查询的 功能。例如,你可以指定一个起始条件,然后根据一个或多个连接条件来确定孩子行的内容。举例来说,现在假设我有一个表,里面记录了世界上的某些地区,其表结构如下:

create table hier

(

parent varchar2(30),

child varchar2(30)

);

insert into hier values(null,'Asia');

insert into hier values(null,'Australia');

insert into hier values(null,'Europe');

insert into hier values(null,'North America');

insert into hier values('Asia','China');

insert into hier values('Asia','Japan');

insert into hier values('Australia','New South Wales');

insert into hier values('New South Wales','Sydney');

insert into hier values('California','Redwood Shores');

insert into hier values('Canada','Ontario');

insert into hier values('China','Beijing');

insert into hier values('England','London');

insert into hier values('Europe','United Kingdom');

insert into hier values('Japan','Osaka');

insert into hier values('Japan','Tokyo');

insert into hier values('North America','Canada');

insert into hier values('North America','USA');

insert into hier values('Ontario','Ottawa');

insert into hier values('Ontario','Toronto');

insert into hier values('USA','California');

insert into hier values('United Kingdom','England');

  那么我们可以使用START WITH . . . CONNECT BY . . .从句将父级地区与孩子地区连接起来,并将其层次等级显示出来。

column child format a40

select level,lpad(' ',level*3)||child child

from hier

start with parent is null

connect by prior child = parent;

LEVEL CHILD

---------- --------------------------

1 Asia

2 China

3 Beijing

2 Japan

3 Osaka

3 Tokyo

1 Australia

2 New South Wales

3 Sydney

1 Europe

2 United Kingdom

3 England

4 London

1 North America

2 Canada

3 Ontario

4 Ottawa

4 Toronto

2 USA

3 California

4 Redwood Shores

自从Since Oracle 9i 开始,就可以通过 SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH 函数实现将从父节点到当前行内容以“path”或者层次元素列表的形式显示出来。 如下例所示:

column path format a50

select level,sys_connect_by_path(child,'/') path

from hier

start with parent is null

connect by prior child = parent;

LEVEL PATH

-------- --------------------------------------------

1 /Asia

2 /Asia/China

3 /Asia/China/Beijing

2 /Asia/Japan

3 /Asia/Japan/Osaka

3 /Asia/Japan/Tokyo

1 /Australia

2 /Australia/New South Wales

3 /Australia/New South Wales/Sydney

1 /Europe

2 /Europe/United Kingdom

3 /Europe/United Kingdom/England

4 /Europe/United Kingdom/England/London

1 /North America

2 /North America/Canada

3 /North America/Canada/Ontario

4 /North America/Canada/Ontario/Ottawa

4 /North America/Canada/Ontario/Toronto

2 /North America/USA

3 /North America/USA/California

4 /North America/USA/California/Redwood Shores
在 Oracle 10g 中,还有其他更多关于层次查询的新特性 。例如,有的时候用户更关心的是每个层次分支中等级最低的内容。那么你就可以利用伪列函数CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF来判断当前行是不是叶子。如果是叶子就会在伪列中显示“1”,如果不是叶子而是一个分支(例如当前内容是其他行的父亲)就显示“0”。下给出了一个关于这个函数使用的例子:
select connect_by_isleaf,sys_connect_by_path(child,'/') path

from hier

start with parent is null

connect by prior child = parent;

CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF PATH

0 /Asia

0 /Asia/China

  在Oracle 10g 中还有一个新操作——CONNECT_BY_ROOT。 它用在列名之前用于返回当前层的根节点。如下面的例子,我可以显示出层次结构表中当前行数据所对应的最高等级节点的内容。

 

 

 

 

 

 

select connect_by_root child,sys_connect_by_path(child,'/') path

from hier

start with parent is null

connect by prior child = parent;

CONNECT_BY_ROOT PATH

------------------------------ --------

Asia /Asia

Asia /Asia/China

Asia /Asia/China/Beijing

Asia /Asia/Japan

Asia /Asia/Japan/Osaka

Asia /Asia/Japan/Tokyo

Australia /Australia

Australia /Australia/New South Wales

Australia /Australia/New South Wales/Sydney

Europe /Europe

Europe /Europe/United Kingdom

Europe /Europe/United Kingdom/England

Europe /Europe/United Kingdom/England/London

North America /North America

North America /North America/Canada

North America /North America/Canada/Ontario

North America /North America/Canada/Ontario/Ottawa

North America /North America/Canada/Ontario/Toronto

North America /North America/USA

North America /North America/USA/California

  在Oracle 10g 之前的版本中,如果在你的树中出现了环状循环(如一个孩子节点引用一个父亲节点),Oracle 就会报出一个错误提示:“ ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data”。如果不删掉对父亲的引用就无法执行查询操作。而在 Oracle 10g 中,只要指定“NOCYCLE”就可以进行任意的查询操作。与这个关键字相关的还有一个伪列——CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE, 如果在当前行中引用了某个父亲节点的内容并在树中出现了循环,那么该行的伪列中就会显示“1”,否则就显示“0”。如下例所示:

create table hier2

(

parent number,

child number

);

insert into hier2 values(null,1);

insert into hier2 values(1,2);

insert into hier2 values(2,3);

insert into hier2 values(3,1);

select connect_by_iscycle,sys_connect_by_path(child,'/') path

from hier2

start with parent is null

connect by nocycle prior child = parent;

CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE PATH

------------------ -------

0 /1

0 /1/2

1 /1/2/3
