SQL Server中的XML数据进行insert、update、delete

sql server中新增加了xml.modify()方法，分别为xml.modify(insert),xml.modify(delete),xml.modify(replace)对应xml的插入，删除和修改操作。
本文以下面xml为例，对三种dml进行说明：
declare
@xmlvar xml = '
<catalog>
<book category="itpro">
<title>windows step by step</title>
<author>bill zack</author>
<price>49.99</price>
</book>
<book category="developer">
<title>developing ado .net</title>
<author>andrew brust</author>
<price>39.93</price>

1.xml.modify(insert)语句介绍
a.利用as first,at last,before,after四个参数将元素插入指定的位置
set
@xmlvar.modify
(
'insert <first name="at first" /> as first into (/catalog[1]/book[1])'
)
set
@xmlvar.modify
(
'insert <last name="at last"/> as last into (/catalog[1]/book[1])'
)
set
@xmlvar.modify
(
'insert <before name="before"/> before (/catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1])'
)
set
@xmlvar.modify
(
'insert <after name="after"/> after (/catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1])'
)
select
@xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
<book category="itpro"
>
<first name="at first"
/>
<title>windows step by step</title>
<before name="before"
/>
<author>bill zack</author>
<after name="after"
/>
<price>49.99</price>
<last name="at last"
/>
</book>
b.将多个元素插入文档中
--方法一：利用变量进行插入
declare @newfeatures xml;
set @newfeatures = n'

<first>one element</first>
<second>second element</second>'
set @xmlvar.modify('
)
insert sql:variable("@newfeatures")
into (/catalog[1]/book[1])'
--方法二：直接插入
set @xmlvar.modify('
)
insert (<first>one element</first>,<second>second element</second>)
into (/catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1])'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1:
<
book
category
="itpro"
>
2:
<
title
>
windows step by step</
title
>
3:
<
author
>
bill zack
4:
<
first
>
one element</
first
>
5:
<
second
>
second element</
second
>
6:
</
author
>
7:
<
price
>
49.99</
price
>
8:
<
first
>
one element</
first
>
9:
<
second
>
second element</
second
>
10:
</
book
>
c.将属性插入文档中
--使用变量插入
declare @var nvarchar(10) = '变量插入'
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert (attribute var {sql:variable("@var")})
)
into (/catalog[1]/book[1])'
--直接插入
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert (attribute name {"直接插入"})
)
into (/catalog[1]/book[1]/title[1])'
--多值插入
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert (attribute id {"多值插入1"},attribute name {"多值插入2"})
)
into (/catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1])'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1:
<book category="itpro"
var="变量插入"
>
2:
<title name="直接插入"
>windows step by step</title>
3:
<author id="多值插入1"
name="多值插入2"
>bill zack</author>
4:
<price>49.99</price>
5:
</book>
d.插入文本节点
set
@xmlvar.modify
(
'insert text{"at first"} as first
)
into (/catalog[1]/book[1])'
select
@xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1:
<
book
category
="itpro"
>
2:
at first
3:
<
title
>
windows step by step</
title
>
4:
<
author
>
bill zack</
author
>
5:
<
price
>
49.99</
price
>
6:
</
book
>
注意：插入本文同样具体 as first，as last，before，after四种选项，可以参考a中的使用方法
e.插入注释节点
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert <!--插入评论-->
)
before (/catalog[1]/book[1]/title[1])'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1:
<book category="itpro"
>
2:
<!--插入评论-->
3:
<title>windows step by step</title>
4:
<author>bill zack</author>
5:
<price>49.99</price>
6:
</book>
注意插入注释节点同样具体 as first，as last，before，after四种选项，可以参考a中的使用方法
f.插入处理指令
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert <?program "instructions.exe" ?>
)
before (/catalog[1]/book[1]/title[1])'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1: <bookcategory="itpro">
2: <?program"instructions.exe"?>
3: <title>windows step by step</title>
4: <author>bill zack</author>
5: <price>49.99</price>
6: </book>
注意插入处理指令同样具体 as first，as last，before，after四种选项，可以参考a中的使用方法
g.根据 if 条件语句进行插入
set @xmlvar.modify(
'insert
)
if (/catalog[1]/book[1]/title[2]) then
text{"this is a 1 step"}
else ( text{"this is a 2 step"} )
into (/catalog[1]/book[1]/price[1])'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]/book[1]'
);
结果集为：
1: <book category="itpro">
2: <title>windows step by step</title>
3: <author>bill zack</author>
4: <price>49.99this isa 2 step</price>
5: </book>
2.xml.modify(delete)语句介绍
--删除属性
set @xmlvar.modify('delete /catalog[1]/book[1]/@category')
--删除节点
set @xmlvar.modify('delete /catalog[1]/book[1]/title[1]')
--删除内容
set @xmlvar.modify('delete /catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1]/text()')
--全部删除
set @xmlvar.modify('delete /catalog[1]/book[2]')
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]');
结果集为：
1: <catalog>
2: <book>
3: <author />
4: <price>49.99</price>
5: </book>
6: <book category="itpro">
7: <title>windows cluster server</title>
8: <author>stephen forte</author>
9: <price>59.99</price>
10: </book>
11: </catalog>
3.xml.modify(replace)语句介绍
--替换属性
set @xmlvar.modify('replace value of(/catalog[1]/book[1]/@category))
with ("替换属性")'
--替换内容
set @xmlvar.modify('replace value of(/catalog[1]/book[1]/author[1]/text()[1]))
with("替换内容")'
--条件替换
set @xmlvar.modify('replace value of (/catalog[1]/book[2]/@category))
with(
if(count(/catalog[1]/book)>4) then
"条件替换1"
else
"条件替换2")'
select @xmlvar.query('/catalog[1]'
);
结果集为：
1: <catalog>
