按 SQL 2005 中相关子查询的结果分组

Question

这是我第一次在 Stack Overflow 上发帖，但我已经发现它是非常宝贵的资源。

我的问题与 SQL 语句的 group by 中的相关子查询有关，我知道这是不可能的。我希望通过解释查询的意图，我可以找到一些帮助。以最简单的形式，我尝试按主键进行聚合，并按相关子查询的结果进行分组。用于关联的字段对于每个主键记录都是唯一的。如果我按相关字段分组，它不会提供预期的结果。我需要能够按相关子查询的结果进行分组，但不确定如何重组查询。下面提供了一个示例查询。

谢谢

乍一看，尝试将子查询更改为 CROSS（或 OUTER）APPLY。这会将“列”从 SELECT 子句移动到 FROM 子句，从而允许分组。

SELECT
    foo.TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1 ,
    count(BaseTable.BaseKey)
 FROM
    BaseTable
    join
    TargetJoinTable on BaseTable.BaseKey = TargetJoinTable.BaseKey
    CROSS APPLY
    (
    SELECT
        substring(CommaDelimitedTranslatedList, 0, 2000000000)
               AS TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1
    FROM 
        ( 
        SELECT 
            cd.choiceValue + ',' 
        from
            SelectedChoiceTable sct 
            join
            ChoiceDescription cd on cd.ChoiceID = sct.ChoiceID 
        where 
            sct.ChoiceSet = TargetJoinTable.ChoiceKey
        FOR XML PATH('')
        ) D ( CommaDelimitedTranslatedList )
      ) foo
Group By 
    foo.TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1
Order By 
    foo.TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1 ASC

或者将聚合移出到派生表上

SELECT
    COUNT(foo.BaseKey),
    TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1
FROM
    (SELECT DISTINCT 
        (SELECT substring(CommaDelimitedTranslatedList, 0, len(CommaDelimitedTranslatedList)) 
        FROM 
            ( 
                SELECT 
                    cd.choiceValue + ',' 
                from SelectedChoiceTable sct 
                    join ChoiceDescription cd on 
                        cd.ChoiceID = sct.ChoiceID 
                where 
                    sct.ChoiceSet = TargetJoinTable.ChoiceKey  FOR XML PATH('')
            ) D ( CommaDelimitedTranslatedList ))  AS           [TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1] ,
     BaseTable.BaseKey

     FROM BaseTable
        join TargetJoinTable on 
            BaseTable.BaseKey = TargetJoinTable.BaseKey
    ) foo
Group By 
    [TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1]
Order By 
    [TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1] ASC

其中一个问题是 CSV TargetJoinTableCommaDelimitedTranslatedList1 可能会生成很多次：如果我没看错的话，每个 BaseTable.BaseKey 一次。这会很慢。我的感觉是 CSV 生成应该排在最后：您实际上是在 TargetJoinTable.ChoiceKey 上进行分组，而不是它生成的 CSV。
