An UPDATE statement is used to modify a subset of the values stored in zero or more rows of the database table identified by the qualified-table-name specified as part of the UPDATE statement.

# EVIDENCE-OF: R-38515-45264 An UPDATE statement is used to modify a

R-55869-30521-47622-53163-51064-21445-33319-34731 tcl slt th3 src

If the UPDATE statement does not have a WHERE clause, all rows in the table are modified by the UPDATE.

# EVIDENCE-OF: R-55869-30521 If the UPDATE statement does not have a

Otherwise, the UPDATE affects only those rows for which the WHERE clause boolean expression is true.

R-58129-20729-43334-45037-61775-65105-23500-10551 tcl slt th3 src

It is not an error if the WHERE clause does not evaluate to true for any row in the table - this just means that the UPDATE statement affects zero rows.

Unless the table to which the trigger is attached is in the TEMP database, the table being updated by the trigger program must reside in the same database as it.

tcl/e_update.test:350

/* IMP: R-06085-13761 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-06085-13761 Unless the table to which the trigger is

If the table to which the trigger is attached is in the TEMP database, then the unqualified name of the table being updated is resolved in the same way as it is for a top-level statement (by searching first the TEMP database, then the main database, then any other databases in the order they were attached).

tcl/e_update.test:376

/* IMP: R-29512-54644 */

If an UPDATE statement has a LIMIT clause, the maximum number of rows that will be updated is found by evaluating the accompanying expression and casting it to an integer value.

If the LIMIT expression evaluates to non-negative value N and the UPDATE statement has an ORDER BY clause, then all rows that would be updated in the absence of the LIMIT clause are sorted according to the ORDER BY and the first N updated.

tcl/e_update.test:546

/* IMP: R-18628-11938 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-18628-11938 If the LIMIT expression evaluates to

If the UPDATE statement also has an OFFSET clause, then it is similarly evaluated and cast to an integer value. If the OFFSET expression evaluates to a non-negative value M, then the first M rows are skipped and the following N rows updated instead.

tcl/e_update.test:559

/* IMP: R-30955-38324 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-30955-38324 If the UPDATE statement also has an OFFSET

If the UPDATE statement has no ORDER BY clause, then all rows that would be updated in the absence of the LIMIT clause are assembled in an arbitrary order before applying the LIMIT and OFFSET clauses to determine which are actually updated.

tcl/e_update.test:571

/* IMP: R-19486-35828 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-19486-35828 If the UPDATE statement has no ORDER BY

The ORDER BY clause on an UPDATE statement is used only to determine which rows fall within the LIMIT. The order in which rows are modified is arbitrary and is not influenced by the ORDER BY clause.

tcl/e_update.test:584

/* IMP: R-10927-26133 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-10927-26133 The ORDER BY clause on an UPDATE statement
