Hierarchyid Problem

Question

Hi all,

I have a table with hierarchyid column. It is like:

[NAME] [PATH]
Ahmet /
Aliye /1/
Selen /1/1/
Erdem /2/
Bilge /2/1/
Aydin /2/2/
Tomrs /2/2/2/

I want to see NAMES like:

[NAMES_WITH_HIERARCHY]
Ahmet
Ahmet/Aliye
Ahmet/Aliye/Selen
Ahmet/Erdem
Ahmet/Erdem/Bilge
Ahmet/Erdem/Aydin
Ahmet/Erdem/Aydin/Tomrs

How can i do this?

Answer 1

Here you go:

declare @hierarchy table (name varchar(20), [path] hierarchyid)
insert into @hierarchy ( name, path )
values  
 ('Ahmet', '/')
,('Aliye', '/1/')
,('Selen', '/1/1/')
,('Erdem', '/2/')
,('Bilge', '/2/1/')
,('Aydin', '/2/2/')
,('Tomrs', '/2/2/2/')

--select * from @hierarchy as h

;with Tree([level], [FullName], [path]) as (
    select h.[path].GetLevel() as [level], cast(h.[name] as varchar(max)), h.[path]
    from @hierarchy as h
    where [path] = '/'
    union all
    select h2.[path].GetLevel(), t.[FullName] + '/' + h2.[name] , h2.[path]
    from Tree t
    join @hierarchy as h2 on h2.[path].IsDescendantOf(t.[path]) = 1 and t.[path] <> h2.[path] and h2.[path].GetLevel() - t.[level] < 2 
)
select [Level], cast(FullName as varchar(25)) [Fullname], cast(Path as varchar(10)) [Path] 
from Tree
order by Path

Output:

Level  Fullname                  Path
