The UPDATE statement
Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
The UPDATE statement is used to modify one or several pre-existing records in a database table. UPDATE statements are only possible on single tables. Support for multi-table updates might be implemented in the future. An example update query is given here:
UPDATE AUTHOR
SET FIRST_NAME = 'Hermann',
LAST_NAME = 'Hesse'
WHERE ID = 3;
create.update(AUTHOR)
.set(AUTHOR.FIRST_NAME, "Hermann")
.set(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME, "Hesse")
.where(AUTHOR.ID.eq(3))
.execute();
The following subsections discuss the various subclauses of the DELETE statement.
