Re: [iPlanet-JATO] How to make an OR in the WHERE clause of a SELECT

Question

Harry,
If you get a reference to your model, you can set the
whereClauseOverride with exactly the string you want to use. Keep in
mind that you are dealing with a the raw SQL where clause, therefore,
you must use the actual table column names and not the model's logical
field names as they could be different.
QueryModelBase queryModel = (QueryModelBase)getModel(PersonModel.class);
// you must add the "WHERE" as well
String whereClause = "WHERE firstName LIKE '%max' OR lastName LIKE '%max%'";
queryModel.setWhereClauseOverride(whereClause);
Keep in mind that this will override all where criteria: static and
dynamic where criteria. Static criteria can be declared in your model
class: setStaticWhereCriteriaString(STATIC_WHERE_CRITERIA).
You could optionally get the entire SQL statement and replace the
__WHERE__ token yourself with a string replace technique. In fact, if
you want to add an ORDER BY, you will need to get the SQL and append to
the end.
queryModel.getSelectSQL();
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions

Hi,
if I add criterias to my model
with "SelectQueryModel.addUserWhereCriterion()" they will be concated
with AND.
How can I add a criteria with OR?
I want something like:
SELECT personId, firstName, lastName
FROM Person
WHERE firstName LIKE "%max"
OR lastName LIKE "%max%"
Thanks.

Rewritten your query wuth tags as well
{code}select  "P_CIRCUITS_FIBER"."PORTS_1",
        "P_CIRCUITS_FIBER"."PORTS_2",
        CASE WHEN CPORT.ID = (select REGEXP_SUBSTR(ports_1,'[^,]+',1,1) from p_circuits_fiber)
             THEN "CPORT"."PORT_NO" END PORT_NO_1,
        CASE WHEN CPORT.ID = (select REGEXP_SUBSTR(ports_2,'[^,]+',1,1) from p_circuits_fiber)
             THEN "CPORT"."PORT_NO" END PORT_NO_2
from    "CPORT",
        "P_CIRCUITS_FIBER"
where   p_circuits_fiber.fiber_id = :P4000_CIRCUIT_NO
and     (select REGEXP_SUBSTR(ports_1,'[^,]+',1,1) from p_circuits_fiber) = "CPORT"."PORT_NO"  "PORT_NO_1"
and     (select REGEXP_SUBSTR(ports_2,'[^,]+',1,1) from p_circuits_fiber) = "CPORT"."PORT_NO"  "PORT_NO_2"{code}
Now we can see two columns references which should not be there.
I even not sure to understand why those two conditions are in the WHERE clause. But for sure, CPORT.ID cannot be equal to two values unless they are same.
Is there only one row in p_circuits_fiber ?
