当编写dml触发器时,触发器代码不能从触发器所对应的表中读取数据。例如,如果要基于emp表建立触发器,那么该出发起的执行代码不能包含对emp表的查询操作。尽管机那里触发器时不会出现任何错误,但在执行相应触发操作时会显示错误的信息。假定要确保雇员的新工资不能超过当前的最高工资,并使用触发器实现;
create or replace trigger tr_emp_sal before update of sal on emp for each row declare maxsal number(6,2); begin select max(sal)into maxsal from emp ; if :new.sal>maxsal then raise_application_error(-20001,'超出工资上限'); end if; end; /
update emp set sal =60000 where empno=7788;
在行 1 上开始执行命令时出错:
update emp set sal =60000 where empno=7788
错误报告:
SQL 错误: ORA-04091: 表 SCOTT.EMP 发生了变化, 触发器/函数不能读它
ORA-06512: 在 "SCOTT.TR_EMP_SAL", line 3
ORA-04088: 触发器 'SCOTT.TR_EMP_SAL' 执行过程中出错
04091. 00000 - "table %s.%s is mutating, trigger/function may not see it"
*Cause: A trigger (or a user defined plsql function that is referenced in
this statement) attempted to look at (or modify) a table that was
in the middle of being modified by the statement which fired it.
*Action: Rewrite the trigger (or function) so it does not read that table.
