我有一个查询,我将一个表中的日期与另一个表中的最大日期进行比较。我遇到的问题是当日期为空时被比较。因此,请采取以下查询:
select col1 from table1 where date > (select max(date) from table b);
除了子查询返回0行之外,查询工作正常。在0行的情况下,我希望它返回所有行。换句话说,我希望将日期与日期时间最小值进行比较。因此,对于0行的情况,我想比较:
date > '01-01-1900'
我尝试过使用case case而没有运气,但我觉得我错过了一些简单的事情。
非常感谢任何帮助

您想使用NVL功能来提供帮助。

所以对你:
(NVL(p_datefield, to_date('01/01/1901','MM/DD/YYYY'))
这个想法是01/01/1901代表select col1 from table1 where date > (select max(NVL(date, to_date('01/01/1901','MM/DD/YYYY')) from table b);
。如果您不喜欢它,请将该日期更改为您可以代表null
代表{。}}的内容。
更新#1 ..来自下方的评论表明COALESCE会更好地运作。它可以......所以这就是那个例子:
null
现在你有了选择。 享受。

当子查询没有返回任何行时,您希望发生什么?将日期与null进行比较将导致主查询不返回任何内容 - 这在技术上是正确的响应。如果您不想这样,则需要使用NVL function将字符串值替换为null。
