RE: Zend_Db_Select Question

David thanks very much.

Both worked in their own ways and both were so simple

Pretty embarrassing that should have been something I thought of.

Once again thanks for the fresh set of eyes as well as quick responses.

 

 

Then do:

$select->Where('NOT shift_id = ?', $shiftID);

Unless you're relying on operator precedence, then there's no difference between the above and what I wrote below.

However, I don't think either will actually work in this case as you're testing a result from an aggregate function, so it needs to be in a HAVING clause.

Cheers,
David

I’m trying to invoke the AND NOT clause like so.

WHERE label = ‘N1 SL’ AND NOT shift_id = 5

 

I could just write a select statement, however I like the programmatic approach

of Zend_Db_Select as well as the flexibility.

 

 

 

Won't this do?
$select->Where('shift_id != ?', $shiftID);

Hello, I have a question about Zend_Db_Select:

 

My question, does Zend_Db_Select have an option to where you can add an AND NOT clause like so.

SELECT COUNT(shift_id) as total FROM location_shifts WHERE location_id = '1' AND label = 'N1 SL' AND NOT shift_id = '5'

 

I currently have the select query setup like this.

$select = $this->select();

          $select->from($this->_name, array('total' => new Zend_Db_Expr('COUNT(shift_id)')))

                     ->where('label = ?', $label);

                    

            if ($locationID)

                  $select->where('location_id = ?', $locationID);

                 

            if ($shiftID)

                  $select->Where('shift_id = ?', $shiftID);

 

$select->limit(1);

 

And this is the generated output

SELECT COUNT(shift_id) AS `total` FROM `location_shifts` WHERE (label = 'N1 SL') AND (location_id = 1) AND (shift_id = 5) LIMIT 1

 

Thank you for your time in advanced
