Hi,
If an update statement is affecting multiple rows of a table X ,
Does a subselect (selecting from X only) inside EXISTS part of outer query
able to see the changes when rows are being updated one by one by outer query?
for example consider following set of data rows:
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
| profile_id | co_name | size | deletion | md5 |
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
| 212161 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | FL | t | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 212159 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | f | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 216225 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | f | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 216226 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | f | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
begin work;
UPDATE eyp_profiles_table SET
deletion=true
WHERE
co_name='ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD.' AND deletion is false and EXISTS (select * from eyp_profiles_table a where
a.md5=eyp_profiles_table.md5and a.deletion is false and a.profile_id <> eyp_profiles_table.profile_id) ;
my original problem is to update in such a way that i get below finally (observer the deletion column)
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
| profile_id | co_name | size | deletion | md5 |
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
| 212161 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | FL | t | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 212159 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | t | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 216225 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | t | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
| 216226 | ATITH FIBRE PVT. LTD. | 1HS | f | edc462794427724b7d132e3b1387d69f |
+------------+-----------------------+------+----------+----------------------------------+
so that only one entry per md5 record exists.
