I found a query like this in code:
SELECT *
FROM a
RIGHT JOIN b ON a.id = b.id
WHERE a.id = b.id
Is it basically the same as an inner join on a.id = b.id?
To use the WHERE clause to perform the same join as you perform using the INNER JOIN syntax, enter both the join condition and the additional selection condition in the WHERE clause. The tables to be joined are listed in the FROM clause, separated by commas.
If you move the same filter to the WHERE clause, you will notice that the filter happens after the tables are joined.
Introduction. Although an ON clause is required for each operation in an outer join in a FROM clause, an outer join can itself also include a WHERE clause. Any restriction in the WHERE clause is applied only to the table that is the final result of the outer join.
This example uses natural join syntax to merge specified columns from the Customers and Sales tables. The result set is filtered with a WHERE clause.
Yes, this is basically the same as an inner join
.
The where
clause will fail when there are no matches, because the value a.id
will be NULL
.
