Hi experts,
I am having a hard time coding a trigger to handle multiple validation
conditions in DB2 UDB V8.1.9.. I thought that a single trigger might be
better than one-trigger-per-condition, but so far, no cigar. Here is
what I'd like to do (pseudo-code):
CREATE TRIGGER fp_insert
NO CASCADE BEFORE INSERT
ON DB2INST1.FILE_P ROPERTY
REFERENCING NEW AS n
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN ATOMIC
WHEN (n.property_id = 175 and not exists (select 1 from
DICT_TOO_TRUTH where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
THEN RAISE_ERROR('70 001', 'Error')
WHEN (n.property_id = 187 and not exists (select 1 from
DICT_BIOPSY_TRU TH where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
THEN RAISE_ERROR('70 001', 'Error')
END;
DB2 does not like multiple "WHEN" conditions and I cannot find the
correct syntax for CASE. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Create syntax you have there ... :-)
CREATE TRIGGER fp_insert
NO CASCADE BEFORE INSERT
ON DB2INST1.FILE_P ROPERTY
REFERENCING NEW AS n
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN (n.property_id = 175
and not exists (select 1 from DICT_TOO_TRUTH
where dict_value = n.property_valu e)
OR
n.property_id = 187
and not exists (select 1 from DICT_BIOPSY_TRU TH
where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
VALUES(RAISE_ER ROR('70001', 'Error'));
The trigger condition precedes the trigger body.
Cheers
Serge

You could resort to IF ... THEN ... ELSE ... or a CASE statement. With the
latter, you need to put an CASE ... END CASE around the stuff in the atomic
compound.

Thanks Serge,
The solution you gave me works only if the trigger action is the same
for all cases, which I'd rather not have. My mistake, because I should
have said that I wanted to implement the following logic:
CREATE TRIGGER fp_insert
NO CASCADE BEFORE INSERT
ON DB2INST1.FILE_P ROPERTY
REFERENCING NEW AS n
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN ATOMIC
WHEN (n.property_id = 175 and not exists (select 1 from
DICT_TOO_TRUTH where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
THEN RAISE_ERROR('70 001', 'Error in property 175')
WHEN (n.property_id = 187 and not exists (select 1 from
DICT_BIOPSY_TRU TH where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
THEN RAISE_ERROR('70 001', 'Error' in property 187)
END;
Notice the error messages are different. How can I do this?
Thanks again for the prompt response!

I did not want to use IF because I thought CASE might be faster. Is
this true?
Can you give me an example of how you'd use CASE in my situation?

case EXPRESSSION is faster than if STATEMENT. Yes
CREATE TRIGGER fp_insert
NO CASCADE BEFORE INSERT
ON DB2INST1.FILE_P ROPERTY
REFERENCING NEW AS n
FOR EACH ROW
SELECT CASE WHEN n.property_id = 175
and not exists (select 1 from DICT_TOO_TRUTH
where dict_value = n.property_valu e)
THEN CAST(raise_erro r('71001', 'hello') AS INT
WHEN
n.property_id = 187
and not exists (select 1 from DICT_BIOPSY_TRU TH
where dict_value = n.property_valu e))
RAISE_ERROR('70 001', 'World'));
END
FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY 1;
raise_error() doesn't have a defined return type, hence the CAST.
Another option would be to use 2 triggers.
Should be the same cost :-)

Worked like a charm. Thanks for unscrambling the trigger syntax for me!

Hi,
I have a form with a select element with multiple="true". When using the
GET method (I suppose the same happens with the POST method) I can seen
that the form sends channels=CH1&channels=CH2 when CH1 and CH2 have been
choosen. $_GET gives me "CH2". Is there any way to get all
the choosen channels elements? I would be very appreciative for any
help. Thank you in anticipation.

Hi,
I'm trying to understand a situation where ASP seems to be "blocking" of
"queuing" requests. This is on a Win2K Advanced Server, with IIS5.
I've seen some posts (e.g.,
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=Tidy7IDbDHA.2108%40cpmsftngxa06.phx.gbl)
that indicate that ASP will queue up requests when they come in with the
same "session".

In IIS 6.0 We have a concept of worker processes and application pools.
As I understand it, we can have multiple worker process per appliction

assigned to that pool. Will my application be processed by many worker

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
