I want to set the session_id automatically using the request_time parameter so i opted for a mysql stored procedure that contains a case statement.Here goes.
create procedure upd_userinput(in request_time timestamp, out user_session_id int)
begin
update user_input;
case request_time
when time(request_time) < '9:15:00' && time(request_time) > '8:15:00'
then set user_session_id = 1;
when time(request_time)< '10:15:00' && time(request_time) > '11:15:00'
then set user_session_id =2;
end case;
end
//
However i get a 1064 error on enter after //. I have checked the mysql documentation i think the case syntax is correct.
Help please.
delimiter //
create procedure upd_userinput(in request_time TIMESTAMP,out time TIME, out user_session_id INT)
begin
set time = time(request_time);
case
when time < '09:15:00' && time > '08:15:00' then
set user_session_id = 1;
when time < '10:15:00' && time > '11:15:00' then
set user_session_id = 2;
else set user_session_id =3;
end case;
end //
the case must match at least one of the given statements, otherwise you will get this error. To avoid the error include an else in it.
create procedure upd_userinput(in request_time timestamp, out user_session_id int)
begin
update user_input;
case request_time
when time(request_time) < '9:15:00' && time(request_time) > '8:15:00' then
set user_session_id = 1;
when time(request_time)< '10:15:00' && time(request_time) > '11:15:00' then
set user_session_id =2;
else set user_session_id =0;
end case;
end
