  • 0

I have files that are versioned, using a major and minor version.
Now what I want to do is grab the highest major versions of all the files (which I’ve done already). Then check minor versions to see if it contains a 0. If it does throw out that whole set of versions. So for instance. My first query returns: 

FileA Ver 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 
FileB Ver 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 
FileC Ver 5.1, 5.2, 5.3.

So in all 11 rows/records. Now my second query should take that result and throw out all of the FileA versions because one of the versions has a 0 as a minor version. So the second query should return: 

FileB Ver 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4 
FileC Ver 5.1, 5.2, 5.3.

7 rows/records in all.
Could anyone help me with this query? I’m using SQL server 2008 if that helps.

latestFileMajorVersion(fileId, majRev)
as
(
    --Gets files with highest major version
    select distinct v_fileid, max(v_majrev)
    from files
    group by v_fileid
),
latestFileVersions(fileId, majRev, minRev)
as
(
    --Gets files with highest major version and all minor versions
    select fileId, majRev, minrev
    from files
    inner join latestFileMajorVersion on files.v_fileid = latestFileMajorVersion.fileId
    where v_majrev = latestFileMajorVersion.majRev
),
latestFileVersion(fileId, majRev, minRev)
as
(
    select fileId, majRev, minrev
    from latestFileVersions
    where --I'm stuck here.
)
select v_fileid, v_majrev, v_minrev, v_status
from files
inner join latestFileVersion on v_fileid = latestFileVersion.fileId
where latestFileVersion.majRev = v_majrev and latestFileVersion.minRev = v_minrev and v_status = 'UnAssigned'

The table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Files](
    [v_fileid] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
    [v_libid] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
    [v_userid] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
    [v_majrev] [int] NOT NULL,
    [v_minrev] [int] NOT NULL,
    [v_status] [nvarchar](16) NOT NULL,
 CONSTRAINT [PK_Files] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
    [v_fileid] ASC,
    [v_majrev] ASC,
    [v_minrev] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ON) ON [PRIMARY],
 CONSTRAINT [IX_Files] UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED 
(
    [v_majrev] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ON) ON [PRIMARY],
 CONSTRAINT [IX_Files] UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED 
(
    [v_minrev] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]

    Here’s a working solution with a little example table you can play with. Execute it exactly as it is with no other sql around it. You can then modify it to suit your need.

    declare @files table (fileId int identity(1,1), majRev int, minRev int)
insert into @files values (1,0)
insert into @files values (1,1)
insert into @files values (2,0)
insert into @files values (2,2)
insert into @files values (3,1)
insert into @files values (3,2)
insert into @files values (4,1)

 select fileId, majRev, minRev
   from @files f
  where not exists 
        (select *
           from @files
          where minRev = 0
            and majRev = f.majRev
            and fileId = f.fileId)
