The result of query mysql output "if exists" in stored procedure with "select exist" is different

Question

I want to check if this record is already on the list.

I have 3 queries:

• 1 procedure if exists
• 1 procedure if (select count(*) from tbl ) > 0
• 1 select exists()

But 2 procedures have the same result, different from the select exists query.

Query procedure "if exists"

CREATE DEFINER=`admin`@`localhost` PROCEDURE `ins_upd_price_cust`(IN buyerid2 VARCHAR(100),IN kdbrg VARCHAR(100),IN satuan VARCHAR(100),IN sellerid2 VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
    IF EXISTS(SELECT * FROM tblHrgCustDtl WHERE BuyerID2=buyerid2 AND KdBrg=kdbrg AND Satuan=satuan and SellerID2=sellerid2) THEN
            select CONCAT("'",buyerid2,"'");
    ELSE
            select CONCAT("'",sellerid2,"'");
    END IF;

END

Query procedure if (select count(*) from tbl ) > 0

CREATE DEFINER=`admin`@`localhost` PROCEDURE `test_proc`(IN buyerid2 VARCHAR(100),IN kdbrg VARCHAR(100),IN satuan VARCHAR(100),IN sellerid2 VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
    IF (SELECT count(*) FROM tblHrgCustDtl WHERE BuyerID2=buyerid2 AND KdBrg=kdbrg AND Satuan=satuan and SellerID2=sellerid2)>0 THEN
    SELECT '1';
ELSE
    SELECT '0';
END IF;

END

And query select exists() :

SELECT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM tblHrgCustDtl WHERE BuyerID2='10730a6aca58' AND KdBrg='A0050' AND Satuan='PCK' and SellerID2='0ec6926b09c8');

The following are all records in the table:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;

the results of each query

"if exists"

"if (select count(*) from table) > 0"

"select exist"

In the list table I have checked there is no kdbrg=A0050. but 2 procedures produce different output with "select exists".

Is there something wrong in using the procedure?

Answer 1

Your variable names are the same as your unqualified column names (please note that they are both case insensitive). In this situation, MySQL will use the variable instead of the column, see Local Variable Scope and Resolution :

A local variable should not have the same name as a table column. If an SQL statement, such as a SELECT... INTO statement, contains a reference to a column and a declared local variable with the same name, MySQL currently interprets the reference as the name of a variable. [...] MySQL interprets xname in the SELECT statement as a reference to the xname variable rather than the xname column. Consequently, when the procedure sp1()is called, the newname variable returns the value 'bob' regardless of the value of the table1.xname column.

So in

... WHERE ... AND KdBrg=kdbrg ...

and a variable (procedure parameter) kdbrg='A0050' , you are actually comparing

... WHERE ... AND 'A0050'='A0050' ...

which is trivially true unless kdbrg is null .

Just rename your procedure parameters to eg _kdbrg . Technically, you can also add a table qualifier infront of the column names, eg AND tblHrgCustDtl.KdBrg = kdbrg , but this is usually considered less clear and clean.
