SQL Language Extension: LIST
|
||||
|
||||
Function:
|
||||
This function returns a string result with the concatenated non-NULL
|
||||
values from a group. It returns NULL if there are no non-NULL values.
|
||||
|
||||
Authors:
|
||||

|
||||
Dmitry Yemanov <dimitr@firebird.org>
|
||||
|
||||
Format:
|
||||
|
||||
<list function> ::=
|
||||
LIST '(' [ {ALL | DISTINCT} ] <value expression> [',' <delimiter value> ] ')'
|
||||
|
||||
<delimiter value> ::=
|
||||
{ <string literal> | <parameter> | <variable> }
|
||||
|
||||
Syntax Rules:
|
||||
1) If neither ALL nor DISTINCT is specified, ALL is implied.
|
||||
2) If <delimiter value> is omitted, a comma is used to separate
|
||||
the concatenated values.
|
||||
|
||||
Notes:
|
||||
1) Numeric and datetime values are implicitly converted to strings
|
||||
during evaluation.
|
||||
2) The result value is of type VARCHAR(32765), so the LIST function
|
||||
should be used carefully, as Firebird limits the maximum
|
||||
result set width by 64KB.
|
||||
3) Ordering of values within a group is implementation-defined.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
A)
|
||||
SELECT LIST(ID, ':')
|
||||
FROM MY_TABLE
|
||||
|
||||
B)
|
||||
SELECT TAG_TYPE, LIST(TAG_VALUE)
|
||||
FROM TAGS
|
||||
GROUP BY TAG_TYPE
