Tiago Ameller | I need to multiply by 2 an HOUR TO MINUTE interval.
Having this columns: "MananaDesde" TIME NOT NULL, "MananaHasta" TIME NOT NULL, "MananaIntervalo" INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE COMPUTED ALWAYS AS CAST("MananaHasta" - "MananaDesde" AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE), need in some circunstances something similar to CAST(CAST(CAST(MananaIntervalo AS INTERVAL MSECOND) AS BIGINT) * 2 AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE) This complex CAST powered to three does not work, but is the more similar to success I got. Any idea? |

<< I need to multiply by 2 an HOUR TO MINUTE interval. >> You cannot do so. You must multiple the value by an integer-based INTERVAL value, not an INTERVAL value that is comprised of more than one type of INTERVAL. For example, you can multiple these INTERVAL types: INTERVAL HOUR INTERVAL MINUTE INTERVAL SECOND INTERVAL MSECOND << need in some circunstances something similar to CAST(CAST(CAST(MananaIntervalo AS INTERVAL MSECOND) AS BIGINT) * 2 AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE) This complex CAST powered to three does not work, but is the more similar to success I got. >> I'm not quite sure that the above sentence means, but I just tried this: SELECT CAST(CAST(21660000 * 2 AS INTERVAL MSECOND) AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE) FROM customer and it works just fine. You'll notice that once the INTEGER value is CAST into a DAY-TIME INTERVAL, in this case MSECOND, that it can then be CAST into any compatible DAY-TIME INTERVAL. However, you cannot directly cast the INTEGER value into an HOUR TO MINUTE DAY-TIME INTERVAL because there isn't any context as to what the INTEGER represents. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

This run as spected. I saw the difference between simple and complex intervals (DAY vs HOUR TO ...). But changing de const 21660000 by the value runs but generates an astronomic result: SELECT CAST(MananaIntervalo AS INTERVAL MSECOND), CAST(CAST(MananaHasta - MananaDesde AS INTERVAL MSECOND) * 2 AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE) FROM ... returns 21840000 (right), 3773952000000000 (wich is not 21840000 * 2) |

Remember, Delphi doesn't have native support for INTERVAL types, so they are represented in their raw form without any interpretation. In the case of DAY-TIME INTERVALs, that means an Int64 representing milliseconds. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

My question is about if it'll be possible to make basic arithmetic operations on intervals inside SQL/PSM. |

I don't know if this is a bug but I think you can get the correct result by casting to a bigint before multiplying and back again like SELECT CAST(MananaIntervalo AS INTERVAL MSECOND), CAST(CAST(CAST(CAST(MananaHasta - MananaDesde AS INTERVAL MSECOND) AS BIGINT) * 2 AS INTERVAL MSECOND) AS INTERVAL HOUR TO MINUTE) FROM ...
