NAME

SELECT INTO - 從一個查詢的結果中創建一個新表

SYNOPSIS

SELECT [ ALL | DISTINCT [ ON ( expression [, ...] ) ] ]
    * | expression [ AS output_name ] [, ...]
    INTO [ TEMPORARY | TEMP ] [ TABLE ] new_table
    [ FROM from_item [, ...] ]
    [ WHERE condition ]
    [ GROUP BY expression [, ...] ]
    [ HAVING condition [, ...] ]
    [ { UNION | INTERSECT | EXCEPT } [ ALL ] select ]
    [ ORDER BY expression [ ASC | DESC | USING operator ] [, ...] ]
    [ LIMIT { count | ALL } ]
    [ OFFSET start ]
    [ FOR UPDATE [ OF tablename [, ...] ] ]

DESCRIPTION 描述

SELECT INTO 從一個查詢的計算結果中創建一個新表。 數據并不返回給客戶端，這一點和普通的 SELECT 不同。 新表的字段具有和 SELECT 的輸出字段相關聯（相同）的名字和數據類型。  

PARAMETERS 參數

TEMPORARY 或 TEMP

 如果聲明了這個關鍵字，那么該表是作為一個臨時表創建的。 請參考 CREATE TABLE [create_table(7)] 獲取細節。

new_table

 要創建的表的表名（可以有模式修飾）。

 所有其它輸入的域都在 SELECT [select(7)] 中有詳細描述。

NOTES 注意

CREATE TABLE AS [create_table_as(7)] 的作用和 SELECT INTO 相同。 我們建議使用 CREATE TABLE AS 語法， 因為 SELECT INTO 不是標準語法。 實際上，這種類型的 SELECT INTO 是不能在 ECPG 或者 PL/pgSQL 中使用的， 因為它們對 INTO 子句的解釋是不同的。  

COMPATIBILITY 兼容性

 SQL 標準用 SELECT ... INTO 表示選取數值到一個宿主程序的標量變量中， 而不是創建一個新表。這種用法實際上就是在 ECPG  （參閱 Chapter 29）和PL/pgSQL  （Chapter 35）里的用途。 PostgreSQL 用 SELECT INTO 代表創建表的意思是歷史原因。 在新代碼里我們***使用 CREATE TABLE AS 實現這個目地。 (CREATE TABLE AS 也不是標準，但至少它出現混淆的機會少一些。)

NAME

SELECT INTO - create a new table from the results of a query

SYNOPSIS

SELECT [ ALL | DISTINCT [ ON ( expression [, ...] ) ] ]
    * | expression [ AS output_name ] [, ...]
    INTO [ TEMPORARY | TEMP ] [ TABLE ] new_table
    [ FROM from_item [, ...] ]
    [ WHERE condition ]
    [ GROUP BY expression [, ...] ]
    [ HAVING condition [, ...] ]
    [ { UNION | INTERSECT | EXCEPT } [ ALL ] select ]
    [ ORDER BY expression [ ASC | DESC | USING operator ] [, ...] ]
    [ LIMIT { count | ALL } ]
    [ OFFSET start ]
    [ FOR UPDATE [ OF tablename [, ...] ] ]

DESCRIPTION

SELECT INTO creates a new table and fills it with data computed by a query. The data is not returned to the client, as it is with a normal SELECT. The new table's columns have the names and data types associated with the output columns of the SELECT.  

PARAMETERS

TEMPORARY or TEMP

If specified, the table is created as a temporary table. Refer to CREATE TABLE [create_table(7)] for details.

new_table

The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the table to be created.

All other parameters are described in detail under SELECT [select(7)].

NOTES

CREATE TABLE AS [create_table_as(7)] is functionally equivalent to SELECT INTO. CREATE TABLE AS is the recommended syntax, since this form of SELECT INTO is not available in ECPG or PL/pgSQL, because they interpret the INTO clause differently.  

COMPATIBILITY

The SQL standard uses SELECT ... INTO to represent selecting values into scalar variables of a host program, rather than creating a new table. This indeed is the usage found in ECPG and PL/pgSQL. The PostgreSQL usage of SELECT INTO to represent table creation is historical. It's best to use CREATE TABLE AS for this purpose in new code. (CREATE TABLE AS isn't standard either, but it's less likely to cause confusion.)
