about connect by
level --层级
start with --遍历起始位置
prior --父类或上一级
sys_connect_by_path() --层级路径
connect_by_root() --根节点
connect_by_isleaf --是否叶子节点
nocycle --不循环遍历
SELECT empno, ename, job, mgr, deptno, LEVEL, sys_connect_by_path(ename,'\'), connect_by_root(ename) FROM emp START WITH mgr IS NULL CONNECT BY mgr = PRIOR empno
WITH T(empno, ename, job, mgr, deptno, the_level, path,top_manager) AS ( ---- 必须把结构写出来
SELECT empno, ename, job, mgr, deptno ---- 先写锚点查询，用START WITH的条件
,1 AS the_level ---- 递归起点，第一层
,'\'||ename ---- 路径的第一截
,ename AS top_manager ---- 原来的CONNECT_BY_ROOT
FROM scott.EMP
WHERE mgr IS NULL ---- 原来的START WITH条件
UNION ALL ---- 下面是递归部分
SELECT e.empno, e.ename, e.job, e.mgr, e.deptno ---- 要加入的新一层数据，来自要遍历的emp表
,1 + t.the_level ---- 递归层次，在原来的基础上加1。这相当于CONNECT BY查询中的LEVEL伪列
,t.path||'\'||e.ename ---- 把新的一截路径拼上去
,t.top_manager ---- 直接继承原来的数据，因为每个路径的根节点只有一个
FROM t, scott.emp e ---- 典型写法，把子查询本身和要遍历的表作一个连接
WHERE t.empno = e.mgr ---- 原来的CONNECT BY条件
