Question

I have a stored procedure which takes input like

myProcedure("Fashion,Sports", "Shirts, Pants", null, null , "0,100")

myProc( productType, Item, ProductID, costprice, minMaxQuantity);

Now for the first parameter, myProcedure creates a mysql query somthing like

Select * from myTable where ProductType in ('Fashion,'Sports')
and Item in ('Shirts','Pants');

For creating “in” statement part I am using “Repalce” method of mysql

SET whrClause = REPLACE(productType, "," ," ',' ");

This way I am able to make a correct query, and even I am getting the desired results.

But the problem is, in input sometime I am getting

myProcedure("Adm/Husleie/Royalty,Fashion,Sports", "Shirts, Pants", null, null , "0,100");

now for first part of the first argument (i.e Adm/Husleie/Royalty)
Replace method is not working properly. I am not getting result for ProductType = Adm/Husleie/Royalty , but for Fashion and Sports I am getting the results. Can someone help me. How can I use absolute string and I can use replace method as well.

Answer 1

try this:

Change your replace statement to

SET whrClause =REPLACE(REPLACE(productType, "," ," ',' "),"/" ," ',' ");
