BEFORE INSERT trigger > how to rollback the insertion
Hi, I have a simple table in my database - there are only 2 fields: [ID] (AI, PK) and [Name]. My intention is to create a BEFORE INSERT trigger to check if there already exists a record in the table with the same value in the [Name] field as the new one I'm trying to insert. If it exists the insertion should be cancelled.
This is what I have:
CREATE DEFINER = 'root'@'localhost' TRIGGER `aplikacje`.`ogloszeniodawca_BEFORE_INSERT` BEFORE INSERT ON `ogloszeniodawca` FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
DECLARE v_ogloszeniodawca VARCHAR(60);
SELECT o.ogloszeniodawca INTO v_ogloszeniodawca
FROM ogloszeniodawca AS o
WHERE o.ogloszenodawca=NEW.ogloszeniodawca;
IF NOT v_ogloszeniodawca=NULL THEN
SELECT 'Already exists in the table.';
END IF;
/* Now - how to cancel the insertion? */
END
I don't know how to cancel the insertion then. Is the above concept right?
