Subject No current record for fetch operation
Author RB Smissaert
Using FB 1.5 and some users get the error:

No current record for fetch operation

When running this query:



SELECT

R.RDB$RELATION_ID,

RF.RDB$RELATION_NAME,

RF.RDB$FIELD_NAME,

T.RDB$TYPE_NAME,

RF.RDB$FIELD_POSITION,

F.RDB$FIELD_LENGTH,

RF.RDB$SYSTEM_FLAG

FROM

RDB$RELATION_FIELDS RF

LEFT JOIN RDB$FIELDS F ON (RF.RDB$FIELD_SOURCE = F.RDB$FIELD_NAME)

INNER JOIN

RDB$TYPES T ON (F.RDB$FIELD_TYPE = T.RDB$TYPE) INNER JOIN

RDB$RELATIONS R ON (RF.RDB$RELATION_NAME = R.RDB$RELATION_NAME)

WHERE

T.RDB$FIELD_NAME = 'RDB$FIELD_TYPE'



I understand that this can be caused by FB having problems with the left
join before the inner joins and the solution should be

to re-write the SQL, so the left join comes after all inner joins. The
trouble is that I can't do that in the above SQL.



Would changing the left join to a right join always avoid this problem?



SELECT

R.RDB$RELATION_ID,

RF.RDB$RELATION_NAME,

RF.RDB$FIELD_NAME,

T.RDB$TYPE_NAME,

RF.RDB$FIELD_POSITION,

F.RDB$FIELD_LENGTH,

RF.RDB$SYSTEM_FLAG

FROM

RDB$FIELDS F

RIGHT JOIN

RDB$RELATION_FIELDS RF ON (F.RDB$FIELD_NAME = RF.RDB$FIELD_SOURCE)

INNER JOIN

RDB$TYPES T ON (F.RDB$FIELD_TYPE = T.RDB$TYPE) INNER JOIN

RDB$RELATIONS R ON (RF.RDB$RELATION_NAME = R.RDB$RELATION_NAME)

WHERE

T.RDB$FIELD_NAME = 'RDB$FIELD_TYPE'

I know personally the Main MDO developer (Henrique Meira), I had saw
many times questions about the MDO stability since it's atgged as BETA.
Henrique said that for some years there is no major bug found on the
code, and that it's tagged as BETA just because it has not enough
documentation, and that the desire is to remove the BETA tag only when a
good documentation is available, but you know, documentation is hard to
write, so it's still carrying the BETA tag.

I did not used it personally (because I still use D4, I have BDS 2006
but it's too heavy !)
