MYSQL Trigger set datetime value using case statement

问题

I'm using mysqlimport to do mass table inserts (replacing duplicates primary keys). Several tables have date time columns with records containing values '0000-00-00'. What I would like is a trigger which detects these '0000-00-00' values and replaces with '1950-01-01', otherwise keep the datetime value in the record (i.e. when it's not '0000-00-00').

I have tried the following:

CREATE TRIGGER set_datetime BEFORE INSERT ON tbl
FOR EACH ROW
CASE
WHEN date_col='0000-00-00' THEN SET date_col='1950-01-01';
END CASE

Thank you.

EDIT

Update attempt:

CREATE TRIGGER set_datetime BEFORE INSERT ON tbl
FOR EACH ROW
IF (NEW.date_col='0000-00-00') THEN
SET NEW.date_col='1950-01-01';
END IF;

Still getting an error in the SET portion.

WORKING:

DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER insert_check BEFORE INSERT ON ar
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
    IF NEW.delivery_date='0000-00-00' THEN
        SET NEW.delivery_date='1950-01-01';
    END IF;
END; $$
DELIMITER ;

回答1:

Use IF THEN :

IF (NEW.date_col = '0000-00-00') THEN
  SET NEW.date_col='1950-01-01';
END IF;

回答2:

CREATE TRIGGER set_datetime BEFORE INSERT ON tbl 
FOR EACH ROW 
IF YEAR(NEW.date_col)=0 THEN
    SET NEW.date_col='1950-01-01 00:00:00'; 
END IF;

Give it a Try !!!

If you want, or need, to use 'case' then this should work:

SET NEW.date_col=CASE WHEN NEW.date_col='0000-00-00' THEN ='1950-01-01'
WHEN NEW.date_col='something else' THEN 'whatever'
ELSE 'default'
END CASE;
