_rowid
Syntax
_rowid
Description
The _rowid
pseudo column is mapped to the primary key in the related table. This can be used as a replacement of the rowid
pseudo column in other databases. Another usage is to simplify sql queries as one doesn't have to know the name of the primary key.
Examples
create table t1 (a int primary key, b varchar(80)); insert into t1 values (1,"one"),(2,"two"); select * from t1 where _rowid=1;
+---+------+ | a | b | +---+------+ | 1 | one | +---+------+
update t1 set b="three" where _rowid=2; select * from t1 where _rowid>=1 and _rowid<=10;
+---+-------+ | a | b | +---+-------+ | 1 | one | | 2 | three | +---+-------+
