在讲外连接之前,先举例介绍内连接,也就是一般的相等连接。
select * from a, b where a.id = b.id;
对于外连接,Oracle中可以使用“(+)”来表示,9i可以使用LEFT/RIGHT/FULL OUTER JOIN,下面将配合实例一一介绍。
1. LEFT OUTER JOIN:左外关联
SELECT e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name FROM employees e LEFT OUTER JOIN departments d ON (e.department_id = d.department_id); |
等价于
SELECT e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name FROM employees e, departments d WHERE e.department_id=d.department_id(+); |
结果为:所有员工及对应部门的记录,包括没有对应部门编号department_id的员工记录。
2. RIGHT OUTER JOIN:右外关联
SELECT e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name FROM employees e RIGHT OUTER JOIN departments d ON (e.department_id = d.department_id); |
等价于
SELECT e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name FROM employees e, departments d WHERE e.department_id(+)=d.department_id; |
结果为:所有员工及对应部门的记录,包括没有任何员工的部门记录。
3. FULL OUTER JOIN:全外关联
SELECT e.last_name, e.department_id, d.department_name FROM employees e FULL OUTER JOIN departments d ON (e.department_id = d.department_id); |
结果为:所有员工及对应部门的记录,包括没有对应部门编号department_id的员工记录和没有任何员工的部门记录。
