Exemplo: construir irmãos com o modo EXPLICIT

Aplica-se a: SQL Server Banco de Dados SQL do Azure Instância Gerenciada de SQL do Azure

Assuma que você quer construir XML que forneça informações de pedidos de vendas. Neste exemplo, os elementos <SalesPerson> e <OrderDetail> são irmãos. Cada Pedido tem um elemento <OrderHeader>, um elemento <SalesPerson> e um ou mais elementos <OrderDetail>.

<OrderHeader SalesOrderID=... OrderDate=... CustomerID=... >
  <SalesPerson SalesPersonID=... />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID=... LineTotal=... ProductID=... OrderQty=... />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID=... LineTotal=... ProductID=... OrderQty=.../>
      ...
</OrderHeader>
<OrderHeader ...</OrderHeader>

A consulta em modo EXPLICIT a seguir constrói esse XML. A consulta especifica valores Tag de 1 para o elemento <OrderHeader>, 2 para o elemento <SalesPerson> e 3 para o elemento <OrderDetail>. Como <SalesPerson> e <OrderDetail> são irmãos, a consulta especifica o mesmo valor de marca Parent de 1 identificando o elemento <OrderHeader>.

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
SELECT  1 as Tag,
        0 as Parent,
        SalesOrderID  as [OrderHeader!1!SalesOrderID],
        OrderDate     as [OrderHeader!1!OrderDate],
        CustomerID    as [OrderHeader!1!CustomerID],
        NULL          as [SalesPerson!2!SalesPersonID],
        NULL          as [OrderDetail!3!SalesOrderID],
        NULL          as [OrderDetail!3!LineTotal],
        NULL          as [OrderDetail!3!ProductID],
        NULL          as [OrderDetail!3!OrderQty]
FROM   Sales.SalesOrderHeader
WHERE     SalesOrderID=43659 or SalesOrderID=43661
UNION ALL
SELECT 2 as Tag,
       1 as Parent,
        SalesOrderID,
        NULL,
        NULL,
        SalesPersonID,
        NULL,
        NULL,
        NULL,
        NULL
FROM   Sales.SalesOrderHeader
WHERE     SalesOrderID=43659 or SalesOrderID=43661
UNION ALL
SELECT 3 as Tag,
       1 as Parent,
        SOD.SalesOrderID,
        NULL,
        NULL,
        SalesPersonID,
        SOH.SalesOrderID,
        LineTotal,
        ProductID,
        OrderQty
FROM    Sales.SalesOrderHeader SOH,Sales.SalesOrderDetail SOD
WHERE   SOH.SalesOrderID = SOD.SalesOrderID
AND     (SOH.SalesOrderID=43659 or SOH.SalesOrderID=43661)
ORDER BY [OrderHeader!1!SalesOrderID], [SalesPerson!2!SalesPersonID],
         [OrderDetail!3!SalesOrderID],[OrderDetail!3!LineTotal]
FOR XML EXPLICIT;

Este é o resultado parcial:

<OrderHeader SalesOrderID="43659" OrderDate="2005-07-01T00:00:00" CustomerID="676">
  <SalesPerson SalesPersonID="279" />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID="43659" LineTotal="10.373000" ProductID="712" OrderQty="2" />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID="43659" LineTotal="28.840400" ProductID="716" OrderQty="1" />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID="43659" LineTotal="34.200000" ProductID="709" OrderQty="6" />
    ...
</OrderHeader>
<OrderHeader SalesOrderID="43661" OrderDate="2005-07-01T00:00:00" CustomerID="442">
  <SalesPerson SalesPersonID="282" />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID="43661" LineTotal="20.746000" ProductID="712" OrderQty="4" />
  <OrderDetail SalesOrderID="43661" LineTotal="40.373000" ProductID="711" OrderQty="2" />
  ...
</OrderHeader>
