问题
I'm trying to implement a system in MySQL to store hierarchical data. I've decided to go with the system implemented here as described by Bill Karwin starting on slide number 40. I'm trying to setup the database so the EntryPaths
table is maintained automatically.
Update: I've updated the database create SQL a bit. I've got things 1/2 working for an update, I think. After running the database create SQL try the following
First see how this entry looks
-- Example query to return a full library entry (0x02 is the entry iD)
SELECT `Library`.* FROM `Library`
LEFT JOIN `EntryPaths` ON `Library`.`iD` = `EntryPaths`.`descendant`
WHERE `EntryPaths`.`ancestor` = 0x02
ORDER BY `Library`.`subsectionOf`, `Library`.`subsectionOrder`
And how this one looks
-- Example query to return a full library entry (0x08 is the entry iD)
SELECT `Library`.* FROM `Library`
LEFT JOIN `EntryPaths` ON `Library`.`iD` = `EntryPaths`.`descendant`
WHERE `EntryPaths`.`ancestor` = 0x08
ORDER BY `Library`.`subsectionOf`, `Library`.`subsectionOrder`
The 1st entry viewed has several children, the second has no children. Run the following update to reparent the 'College Years' node (and its children) to John Doe
UPDATE `Library` SET `subsectionOf` = 0x08 WHERE `Library`.`iD` = 0x04;
If you re-run the above two select statements you'll see that items have been removed from Jane Doe
but they have not been added to John Doe
as expected. The Library_Update
trigger is at fault but I'm running out of ideas to try to fix it.
The database create SQL with sample data:

In your INSERT statement in the Libary_Update trigger you have the following line:
WHERE subtree.`ancestor` = NEW.`iD`
but you aren't updating the ID field so I don't think you will have a NEW.iD value. Should that line possibly use OLD.iD instead?
