i want to create a function which calculates a value using a query and I am having a problem returning the value:
Shortened, my query is:
CREATE FUNCTION func01(value1 INT , monto DECIMAL (10,2)) RETURNS DECIMAL(10,2)
BEGIN
SET @var_name = 0;
select @var_name=if(value1 = 1,monto * table.divisa_dolar,table.monto *divisa_euro) from table where data_init = 1;
return @var_nam;
END
I get a SQL syntax error.
SQL Error (1064): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
Assuming these are all generic names (table will not be a good table name), the problem is you can't use == for comparison. You are also missing some key syntax (DECLARE, SELECT INTO, etc.).
Change to this:
CREATE FUNCTION func01(value1 INT , monto DECIMAL (10,2))
RETURNS DECIMAL(10,2)
DETERMINISTIC
BEGIN
DECLARE var_name DECIMAL(10,2);
SET var_name = 0;
SELECT if(value1 = 1,monto *divisa_dolar,monto *divisa_euro) INTO var_name
FROM table
WHERE data_init = 1;
RETURN var_name;
END
