Oracle reverse string之种种实现

 Oracle SQL里有undocument function实现reverse string的功能，那么能否用其他方式实现呢？这里介绍几种方法：
1.undocument REVERSE FUNCTION

SELECT REVERSE('测试reverse') FROM dual;  --注意中文可能乱码 SELECT REVERSE('测试reverse') FROM dual; --2次reverse正常 SELECT reverse(REVERSE('测试reverse')) FROM dual;

2.使用utl_raw.REVERSE

SELECT utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(utl_raw.reverse(utl_raw.cast_to_raw('测试reverse'))) FROM dual; --中文同上

3.递归SQL实现reverse,好处，中文的可以直接reverse
--带分隔符，选不存在字符串的特殊符号

WITH t AS   (SELECT  '测试reverse' AS str FROM dual)   SELECT REPLACE(sys_connect_by_path(res_str, '|'), '|') AS reversed_string   FROM (SELECT length(str) - rownum AS rn, substr(str, rownum, 1) res_str          FROM t          CONNECT BY rownum <= length(str))   WHERE connect_by_isleaf = 1   CONNECT BY rn = PRIOR rn + 1   START WITH rn = 0;    --11g r2递归with   WITH t (str, s, c)   AS (   SELECT '测试reverse' str, CAST(NULL AS VARCHAR2(15)) s, 0   FROM dual   UNION ALL   SELECT str, s || substr(str, -c - 1, 1), c + 1 FROM t WHERE c <= length(str) ) SELECT MAX(str) str, MAX(s) rev_str FROM t;

4.使用undocument wm_concat OR 11g r2 listagg,好处，中文的可以直接reverse

SELECT REPLACE(WM_CONCAT(NAME), ',', '') REV_NAME FROM (SELECT LEVEL, SUBSTR('测试reverse', LEVEL, 1) NAME        FROM DUAL        CONNECT BY LEVEL <= LENGTH('测试reverse')        ORDER BY 1 DESC); SELECT listagg(str) within GROUP( ORDER BY ord) FROM (SELECT rownum ord, substr('测试reverse', LEVEL * -1, 1) str        FROM dual        CONNECT BY LEVEL <= length('测试reverse'));

当然，undocument的东西最好别用，这里11g推荐使用listagg,或者非中文的用UTL_RAW.REVERSE实现。
