Hi, You might want to check-out StepSqlite PL/SQL compiler for SQLite at http://www.metatranz.com/stepsqlite Using it you can write the trigger (as part of a package body) almost the way you wrote in original post. StepSqlite compiles the PL/SQL code to a linux x86 shared library which can be linked in to your C++ app and used as the database interface to SQLite. There is an easy-to-follow tutorial here: http://www.metatranz.com/stepsqlite/tutorial.html
*If you do not use C++*, wait till StepSqlite adds support for creating a loadable SQLite extension for SQLite and then you can simply load the compiled shared library into your SQLite database. (NOTE: below given is not pseudo code - this is actual code which you need to write and leave the rest to StepSqlite): === CREATE TABLE stock_tab(stock_id NUMBER(5), prod_batch_code NUMBER(5), stock_qty NUMBER(5), stock_date date); CREATE TABLE purchase_tab(product_batch_code NUMBER(5), purchase_qty NUMBER(5)); PACKAGE BODY MyDBinterface IS BEGIN CREATE TRIGGER insert_stock_from_product AFTER INSERT ON purchase_tab DECLARE count NUMBER(5); BEGIN SELECT count(prod_batch_code) INTO count FROM stock_tab WHERE prod_batch_code= :new.product_batch_code; IF count > 0 THEN UPDATE stock_tab SET stock_qty = stock_qty + :new.purchase_qty WHERE prod_batch_code= :new.product_batch_code ELSE INSERT INTO stock_tab(stock_id, prod_batch_code, stock_qty, stock_date) VALUES (20009, :new.product_batch_code, :new.purchase_qty, sysdate() ); END IF; END; END; === -SK On Tue, Jun 2, 2009 at 8:20 AM, robinsmathew <robinsmat...@hotmail.com>wrote: > > guys i ll clarify the problem > this is the purchase table here purchase id is PK > > purchase_id prod_batch_code vendor_type_code purchase_qty purchase_date > ----------- --------------- ---------------- ------------ > ------------------- > 1 1000 10000 100 2009-05-26 > 18:19:27 > 2 1001 10000 100 2009-05-26 > 18:19:31 > 3 1002 10000 100 2009-05-26 > 18:19:35 > 4 1003 10000 100 2009-05-26 > 18:19:49 > > this is the stock table here stock_id is PK and prod_batch_code is FK > > stock_id prod_batch_code stock_qty stock_date > ---------- --------------- ---------- ------------------- > 20001 1001 105 2009-05-26 18:19:27 > 20002 1002 100ps 2009-05-26 18:19:31 > 20003 1003 100ps 2009-05-26 18:19:35 > 20004 1003 100ps 2009-05-26 18:19:43 > 20005 1002 100ps 2009-05-26 18:19:44 > 20006 1001 100ps 2009-05-26 18:19:49 > 20007 1000 85 2009-05-26 18:19:50 > 20008 1000 85 2009-05-26 18:19:51 > > i wrote a trigger > CREATE TRIGGER insert_stock_from_product > AFTER INSERT ON purchase_tab > BEGIN > INSERT INTO stock_tab(stock_id, prod_batch_code, stock_qty, > stock_date) > values (new.purchase_id+20000, new.prod_batch_code, > new.purchase_qty, > new.purchase_date ); > END; > > instead of inserting the same products repeatedly in the stock table i jus > want the quantity as well as the dates to be updated . and wen i insert a > new product_batch_code to the purchase table its shuld be inserted in the > stock table also... > > _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
