Triggers Or Stored Functions
I am developing a membership system wherein every year, the status of all registered members would be changed to something else. I want this function to execute automatically. I think this has something to do with triggers but I can't find a tutorial that can clearly explain how to do it.

Mysql And Triggers/stored Procedures
I have a question regarding the use of triggers. I have difficulties implementing trigger that let's say reacts before/after select statement (select of user), and increments the counter value (of the selected user). Is there a way to achieve this through triggers, or it's not possible?

Socket Programming With Stored Procedures/triggers
I'm currently working on a project where we may need publish/subscribe functionality (ie. a client registers an interest in a certain event, and the server will publish an update notice to the client when that event occurs). One way I was thinking of doing this is to create an AFTER INSERT trigger on the table in question and get it to somehow notify either the middleware (a daemon running on localhost) or the client (a standalone java app running on a remote machine) that a change has occurred. To do this I'd most likely need to write to a socket from within the trigger or stored procedure. Does anyone know if this is possible? I've had a brief look in the MySQL documentation and nothing seems to jump out at me.

Can Arrays Be Used In Stored Procedures And Triggers In Mysql?
I was trying to use arrays in stored procedures but it resulted in syntax errors.Is there any way to use arrays in stored procedures. I have one more question,in triggers if we want to check each column of a table if updated ,is there any way that i can write then in a loop. In the example given below I tried to check change for each column in a table.If there are 10 columns then I have to wirte 10 if statements. Is there any way that I list all the columns of the given table with in a trigger and write loop that contain a if statement that works for all the columns. create trigger updata after update on dataid_list for each row BEGIN if NEW.databaseid <>OLD.databaseid then insert into view_changes SET old=OLD.databaseid,new=NEW.databaseid, operation='UPDATE',column_name='databaseid' end if; if NEW.databasename <>OLD.databasename then insert into view_changes set old=OLD.databasename,new=NEW.databasename, operation='UPDATE',column_name='databasename' end if; END;

SET Datatype In Stored Functions
i'm trying to create a stored function that can tokenize a file path and give me access to each directory in the path. i hoped to do this by replacing the slashes with commas and then treating the result as a set. below is the function. the 'FIND_IN_SET' command works properly, so that proves that the file path variable can be treated like a SET, at least in some respects. i need to to be able to supply an integer index and retreive the corresponding string in the set from within my function. is there any way to do this? delimiter $ CREATE FUNCTION ADD_FILE (filepath VARCHAR(256) ) RETURNS VARCHAR(25) BEGIN DECLARE i INT; SET filepath = REPLACE(filepath, '/', ','); SET i = FIND_IN_SET('luma', filepath ); RETURN filepath; END$ delimiter ;

Stored Procedure And Functions?
I would like to ask some questions about stored procedure and functions. I know some of their difference when it comes to returning values, stored procedures can return many values while stored functions can only return single value. I want to know if they have difference when it comes to speed, is stored procedures faster than stored functions? Follow up question,doing some procedures and functions in my database, does it make my applications fast? Actually I studied this features hoping to make my applications run fast. So that's why Im asking about the speed.

Why Dont Shared Hosting Accounts Provide Stored Procedures And Triggers?
i am searching for 3 days now for a reliable, fast hosting company, which supports stored procedures and triggers on mysql5. most of them dont support this, because mysql5 has a design-flaw in which it stores procedures and triggers on a root level-area (tables mysql information_schema). due this logic, most of the hosting companies wont allow you to create/run procedures and triggers. funny, that hosting companies forbid you to use new technologies and methods to build faster.

Stored Procedures & Filesystem Functions
I've seen this done with MSSQL, I'm wondering if there is a way to do it with MySQL 5.0. I want to have a table where each record stores some meta data about a file. Instead of having a longblob column to store the binary of the file in, I'd prefer to just write each file to disk and name it with the auto increment value of the table. If I delete a row, I want it to automatically delete the associated file from the disk as well. The problem is that I don't see any filesystem functions. Is this functionality missing from MySQL?

Roles, Stored Procedures, User-defined Functions
We are considering switching to mySQL for a Web application. The current functionality relies on roles, stored procedures, and user-defined functions that are created specifically for the application. We use roles to provision different access levels to groups of users. I understand that mySQL v4.1 does not have these features yet. However, is there a timetable for when these will be available?

Validating Using Triggers?
If i have a table that includes start_date and end_date, how can i validate this data in the DBMS without using a stored procedure? I have already written the application, i just want to add DBMS validation on new rows that will be inserted so that start_date is always less than or equal to end date.. In oracle i would simply raise an application error in the trigger and then i could assign an error message with it.. I can't seem to find any such ability in mysql.. can i even restrict inserts/updates within triggers in mysql,

Question About Triggers
I want to install a trigger that updates a total (subtracting 1) whenever a row is deleted. Does it make sense to do it the following way? Create Trigger: CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name AFTER DELETE ON table_name FOR EACH ROW SET @rows_deleted = @rows_deleted + 1; Delete Rows: SET @rows_deleted = 0; DELETE FROM table_name WHERE column_name = 3434; UPDATE table_name SET count = (count - @rows_deleted) WHERE id = 767; So instead of issuing an update for each row that's deleted, it records how many were deleted and then issues one update after they're all deleted.

Triggers To A Remote Database
We make use of a PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) and system to store DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) images (like CT scans, MR images etc.) in our Oncology Center. This PACS system uses mysql as it's native database, in which it stores certain data as date and time of the examination, it uses InnoDB tables. We are building another application around it, which will use data from the PACS tables and will hold additional data in a seperate database in it's own tables. Every study has it's own unique identifier which is stored in the PACS database. Additional data is stored in the additional database, under the same unique identifier to be able to keep track of the data and link it to each other. Now I would like to know if it is possible to add a trigger to the PACS database which will delete the related information in the additional database if a record in the PACS database is dropped. This trigger will have to delete the records in the additional tables before dropping the data in it's own database, so we can maintain a more compact database and don't store data which we cannot link to the PACS system anymore.

Triggers To Update Another Table
I see there is a limitation with triggers about refering to table names. So if I wanted to have a trigger on 1 table to update another table, I'm assuming this isn't possible? Bascially it's a reload project. When one table's flag is set to released, I want to add a record into a Reload table, that has some record information from the updated table. A process is reading the Reload table and when it has records it reloads some data based on the records.

Mysqldump Restore Triggers
I have inherited a stone-aged RedHat 8.0 system running mysql 3.23.52 which cannot be upgraded for various reasons I won't go into here. However the powers that be are finally interested in backing this system up, so I have started looking into mysqldump. In the interests of recoverability, I have created a RedHat 9 system running mysql version 3.23.54 which I am now attempting to restore my dump file to. So. To create my dump, I am doing this: # mysqldump --opt --all-databases --user="root" -p > all-databases.dump On the restore system, I do this: # mysql -u root -p < all-databases.dump ...and it ticks along for a while and finally announces: ERROR 1062 at line 6005: Duplicate entry '1' for key 1 Looking at line 6005, it says (line numbers added by me): 6004: LOCK TABLES groups WRITE; 6005: INSERT INTO groups VALUES (0,'Administrators'),(1,'Anonymous'),(2,'File Admin'),(3,'Company'); This does not appear to be a TINYINT problem; the table does not appear to be defined with a TINYINT. I have googled around and the lack of an answer implies I'm doing something trivially incorrect.

Triggers/Locking/Constraints
I have two issues. Firstly, I have a table of users and a table of permissions. Is there a way to use a trigger or some kind of locking in InnoDB tables such that the superuser and its permissions cannot be deleted? I also would like to know if it's possible to constrain insertions into a certain table such that one and only one of two fields must be null. In this case, my table of permissions has two foreign keys for each record: a user ID and a group ID. If the permission applies to a user, the group ID should be null, and vice versa. For security reasons, I would greatly prefer if this logic could be put in the database so that I can simply revoke ALTER privileges from the DB user so nothing can be done from PHP.

Cascade Delete Or Triggers?
Something that annoys me about MySQL is the fact that triggers are not activated when a row is deleted as a result of a cascade delete. I fail to see why this is, but perhaps there is a good reason, or its a bug, who knows. Anyway, I want to use some triggers here and there to ensure the data is as tidy as possible, and remove anything that doesn't need to exist any more (e.g. I have a couple of 1 to 1 relationships that really do need to be two separate tables), but the lack of cascade delete is causing problems. I started replacing one or two of the cascade deletion settings with triggers, to simulate the cascade, and allow the other triggers to work, but as I add more tables and it all gets more complicated its becoming a real nightmare maintaining it, and working out which cascades need to be triggers. My question is this, is there any way at all to get cascades to activate triggers? Or would there be a major performance impact if I just dropped all cascades and replaced them all with triggers?
