mysql> update test set name='aaaa' where id in (select id from test);
ERROR 1093 (HY000): You can't specify target table 'test' for update in FROM clause
官方说明:
Error: 1093 SQLSTATE: HY000 (ER_UPDATE_TABLE_USED)
Message: You can't specify target table '%s' for update in FROM clause
This error occurs for attempts to select from and modify the same table within a single statement. If the select attempt occurs within a derived table, you can avoid this error by setting the derived_merge flag of the optimizer_switch system variable to force the subquery to be materialized into a temporary table, which effectively causes it to be a different table from the one modified. See Section 9.2.2.3, “Optimizing Derived Tables and View References”.
mysql不支持,在一条语句对同一个表,先查询再更新的操作。
解决方法1:改成sql
比如:利用临时表
mysql> update test set name='aaaa' where id in (select id from (select id from test)c);
Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.02 sec)
