MariaDB CAST语法

Syntax

CAST(expr AS type)

Description

CAST（）函数采用一种类型的值，并产生另一种类型的值，类似于CONVERT函数。

CAST（）和CONVERT（）之间的主要区别是CONVERT（expr，type）是ODBC语法，而CAST（expr as type）和CONVERT（...USING ...)` 是SQL92语法。

Examples

简单的转换：

SELECT CAST("abc" AS BINARY);
SELECT CAST("1" AS UNSIGNED INTEGER);
SELECT CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8)

注意，当不指定字符集而将字符强制转换为CHAR时，将使用collation_connection字符集排序规则。与CHAR CHARACTER SET一起使用时，将使用该字符集的默认排序规则。

SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR));
+------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR)) |
+------------------------------+
| latin1_swedish_ci            |
+------------------------------+

SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8));
+-------------------------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8)) |
+-------------------------------------------------+
| utf8_general_ci                                 |
+-------------------------------------------------+

如果您还想更改排序规则，则必须使用COLLATE运算符：

SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8)
  COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci);
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci) |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| utf8_unicode_ci                                                         |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+

使用CAST（）将ENUM字段排序为CHAR而不是内部数值：

CREATE TABLE enum_list (enum_field enum('c','a','b'));

INSERT INTO enum_list (enum_field)
VALUES('c'),('a'),('c'),('b');

SELECT * FROM enum_list
ORDER BY enum_field;
+------------+
| enum_field |
+------------+
| c          |
| c          |
| a          |
| b          |
+------------+

SELECT * FROM enum_list
ORDER BY CAST(enum_field AS CHAR);
+------------+
| enum_field |
+------------+
| a          |
| b          |
| c          |
| c          |
+------------+

从MariaDB 5.5.31开始，以下内容将触发警告，因为x'aa'和'X'aa'不再表现为数字。以前，在所有版本的MySQL中，均不会触发警告，因为它们的确错误地表现为数字：

SELECT CAST(0xAA AS UNSIGNED), CAST(x'aa' AS UNSIGNED), CAST(X'aa' AS UNSIGNED);
+------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| CAST(0xAA AS UNSIGNED) | CAST(x'aa' AS UNSIGNED) | CAST(X'aa' AS UNSIGNED) |
+------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
|                    170 |                       0 |                       0 |
+------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
1 row in set, 2 warnings (0.00 sec)

Warning (Code 1292): Truncated incorrect INTEGER value: '\xAA'
Warning (Code 1292): Truncated incorrect INTEGER value: '\xAA'

强制转换：

SELECT CAST(2019-01-04 INTERVAL AS DAY_SECOND(2)) AS "Cast";

+-------------+
| Cast        |
+-------------+
| 00:20:17.00 |
