Re: Subselect with no records results in final empty set

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I changed the final query to
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT 1 AS t1, 2 AS t2) AS t1
LEFT JOIN (SELECT * FROM atc WHERE id = '1231222') AS t2 ON (1=1)


ON(null) never matched.

It works as you sugested, this is the syntax I used:
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT 1 AS t1, 2 AS t2) AS t1
LEFT JOIN (SELECT * FROM atc WHERE id = '1231222') AS t2 ON (null)

Thank you.

 Hello

 I have this select where the last subselect will return a empty set
and
 because of this the whole select will be empty.
 How can I change this syntax so I will have a row result even if the
 last select is empty?

 SELECT * FROM (SELECT 1 AS t1, 2 AS t2) as t, (SELECT 3 AS t3) as s,
 (SELECT * FROM atc WHERE id = '1231222' LIMIT 1 OFFSET 0) AS s3;

Use explicit join syntax; and then pick the "LEFT [OUTER] JOIN"
variant.

SELECT
FROM t
LEFT JOIN s3 ON (TRUE)
