SELECT 
    @i:=@i+1 AS iterator, 
    t.*
FROM 
    tablename AS t,
    (SELECT @i:=0) AS foo

有点晚了，但也可能对那些寻找答案的人有帮助……

Between rows/row_number示例-可以在任何SQL中使用的递归查询:

WITH data(row_num, some_val) AS 
(
 SELECT 1 row_num, 1 some_val FROM any_table --dual in Oracle
  UNION ALL
 SELECT row_num+1, some_val+row_num FROM data WHERE row_num < 20 -- any number
)
SELECT * FROM data
 WHERE row_num BETWEEN 5 AND 10
/

ROW_NUM    SOME_VAL
-------------------
5           11
6           16
7           22
8           29
9           37
10          46

SELECT 
    @i:=@i+1 AS iterator, 
    t.*
FROM 
    tablename AS t,
    (SELECT @i:=0) AS foo

我也会投票给Mosty Mostacho的解决方案，对他的查询代码进行了轻微的修改:

SELECT a.i, a.j, (
    SELECT count(*) from test b where a.j >= b.j AND a.i = b.i
) AS row_number FROM test a

会得到相同的结果:

+------+------+------------+
|    i |    j | row_number |
+------+------+------------+
|    1 |   11 |          1 |
|    1 |   12 |          2 |
|    1 |   13 |          3 |
|    2 |   21 |          1 |
|    2 |   22 |          2 |
|    2 |   23 |          3 |
|    3 |   31 |          1 |
|    3 |   32 |          2 |
|    3 |   33 |          3 |
|    4 |   14 |          1 |
+------+------+------------+

对于表格:

+------+------+
|    i |    j |
+------+------+
|    1 |   11 |
|    1 |   12 |
|    1 |   13 |
|    2 |   21 |
|    2 |   22 |
|    2 |   23 |
|    3 |   31 |
|    3 |   32 |
|    3 |   33 |
|    4 |   14 |
+------+------+

唯一的区别是查询不使用JOIN和GROUP BY，而是依赖于嵌套选择。

在MySQL中没有像rownum, row_num()这样的函数，但方法如下:

select 
      @s:=@s+1 serial_no, 
      tbl.* 
from my_table tbl, (select @s:=0) as s;

这也可以是一个解决方案:

SET @row_number = 0;

SELECT 
    (@row_number:=@row_number + 1) AS num, firstName, lastName
FROM
    employees
