mysql外键一般是0还是null_mysql外键

效果

a,b,c

如果c设置到a的外键，那么只能在删除c的记录后，才能删除a的记录。

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `advertisers` (

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `jobs` (

INSERT INTO `jobs` (`job_id`, `advertiser_id`, `name`, `shortdesc`, `longdesc`, `address`, `active`, `moderated`) VALUES

(1, 1, 'TEST', 'TESTTEST', 'TESTTESTES', '', 0, 0);

ALTER TABLE `advertisers`

ADD CONSTRAINT `advertisers_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`advertiser_id`) REFERENCES `jobs` (`advertiser_id`);

1.第一种情况

advertisers 设置外键

advertisers_ibfk_1advertiser_iddb03jobsadvertiser_idCASCADERESTRICT

那么

删除的话，父和字表都可以删除，如果RESTRICT，父表不能删除

更新和插入的话，必须先插入字表，然后在插入父表，而且advertiser_id必须一致

比如

INSERT INTO `jobs` (`job_id`, `advertiser_id`, `name`, `shortdesc`, `longdesc`, `address`, `active`, `moderated`) VALUES

(1, 2, 'TEST', 'TESTTEST', 'TESTTESTES', '', 0, 0);

INSERT INTO `advertisers` (`advertiser_id`, `name`, `password`, `email`, `address`, `phone`, `fax`, `session_token`) VALUES

(2, 'TEST COMPANY', '', '', '', '', '', '');

2.第二种情况

如果两个表都设置了外键

ALTER TABLE `jobs`

ADD FOREIGN KEY (`advertiser_id`) REFERENCES `advertisers` (`advertiser_id`);

advertiser

advertisers_ibfk_1advertiser_iddb03jobsadvertiser_idCASCADERESTRICT

jobs

jobs_ibfk_1advertiser_iddb03advertisersadvertiser_idRESTRICTRESTRICT

delete from advertisers where advertiser_id='2'; 无法删除

INSERT INTO `advertisers` (`advertiser_id`, `name`, `password`, `email`, `address`, `phone`, `fax`, `session_token`) VALUES

(3, 'TEST COMPANY', '', '', '', '', '', '');

INSERT INTO `jobs` (`job_id`, `advertiser_id`, `name`, `shortdesc`, `longdesc`, `address`, `active`, `moderated`) VALUES

(2, 3, 'TEST', 'TESTTEST', 'TESTTESTES', '', 0, 0);

执行两个insert全部报错

[SQL]INSERT INTO `jobs` (`job_id`, `advertiser_id`, `name`, `shortdesc`, `longdesc`, `address`, `active`, `moderated`) VALUES

(2, 3, 'TEST', 'TESTTEST', 'TESTTESTES', '', 0, 0);

[Err] 1452 - Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`db03`.`jobs`, CONSTRAINT `jobs_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`advertiser_id`) REFERENCES `advertisers` (`advertiser_id`))

外键总结

1.CASCADERESTRICT的区别

2.如果是RESTRICT，insert必须先插入字表，就是没有外键的表

3.如果是RESTRICT，delete必须先删父表，然后再删除子表

4.如果是整个drop 父表，还是会报错的，只能先禁用外键
