I try to build a menu using the datatype hierarchyid
.
I have the root node and the current selected node. now I want to list of all elements that are related wetween root and selected node AND there siblings.
I get all related elements with following sql query
DECLARE @rootNode hierarchyid, @selectedNode hierarchyid
SELECT @rootNode = MenuNode FROM CMS_Menu WHERE MenuItemID = 3;
SELECT @selectedNode = MenuNode FROM CMS_Menu WHERE MenuItemID =15;
SELECT CMS_Menu.MenuNode
FROM CMS_Menu
WHERE @selectedNode.IsDescendantOf(MenuNode) = 1 /*all related elements*/
AND MenuNode.GetLevel() >= @rootNode.GetLevel() /*nothing below root*/
Now I have to do something like MenuNode.GetAncestor(1)
= result for each row in the query above.
Does anyone have an idea how to get this in a sql query?
Thanks : )
