对于HierarchyID数据类型,系统中有一些系统函数和方法与之相联系。有一些像GetLevel(),ParentChildOrg(),DescendantLimit()和GetAncestor()。下面显示了一个简单的经理和雇员之间的父子关系的例子。
CREATE TABLE Organization
(
NodeLevel hierarchyid,
EmployeeID int,
OrgLevel as NodeLevel.GetLevel(),
EmployeeName nvarchar(50) NOT NULL
) ;
GO
insert into Organization
(NodeLevel, EmployeeID, EmployeeName)
values
(hierarchyid::GetRoot(),0, 'Bob')
go
Declare @Manager hierarchyid
SELECT @Manager = hierarchyid::GetRoot()
FROM Organization ;
insert into Organization
(NodeLevel, EmployeeId, EmployeeName)
values
(@Manager.GetDescendant(null, null), 1, 'Joe')
go
Declare @Manager hierarchyid
declare @NodeLevel hierarchyid
select @NodeLevel = NodeLevel
from Organization
where EmployeeName = 'Joe'
SELECT @Manager = max(NodeLevel)
FROM Organization
where NodeLevel.GetAncestor(1) = @NodeLevel
insert into Organization
(NodeLevel, EmployeeID, EmployeeName)
values
(@NodeLevel.GetDescendant(@Manager, null),2, 'Sarah')
go
select NodeLevel.ToString()as NodeLevel_String, *
FROM Organization
go
drop table Organization
go Select语句的输出就像下面一样:
NodeLevel_StringNodeLevelEmployeeIDOrgLevelEmployeeName
/0x00Bob
/1/0x5811Joe
/1/1/0x5AC022Sarah
注:
上述类似GetRoot(),GetDescendant(),IsDescendantOf(),GetLevel(),GetAncestor(),GetReparentedValue(),ToString()都可在系统函数--层级结构ID函数中找到。
