对于使用MySQL C-API的人来说，你的问题有一个直接的答案。

给定SQL:

  SELECT a.*, b.*, c.* FROM table_a a JOIN table_b b USING (x) JOIN table_c c USING (y)

'mysql_stmt_result_metadata()'的结果将准备好的SQL查询中的字段定义提供到结构MYSQL_FIELD[]中。每个字段包含以下数据:

  char *name;                 /* Name of column (may be the alias) */
  char *org_name;             /* Original column name, if an alias */
  char *table;                /* Table of column if column was a field */
  char *org_table;            /* Org table name, if table was an alias */
  char *db;                   /* Database for table */
  char *catalog;              /* Catalog for table */
  char *def;                  /* Default value (set by mysql_list_fields) */
  unsigned long length;       /* Width of column (create length) */
  unsigned long max_length;   /* Max width for selected set */
  unsigned int name_length;
  unsigned int org_name_length;
  unsigned int table_length;
  unsigned int org_table_length;
  unsigned int db_length;
  unsigned int catalog_length;
  unsigned int def_length;
  unsigned int flags;         /* Div flags */
  unsigned int decimals;      /* Number of decimals in field */
  unsigned int charsetnr;     /* Character set */
  enum enum_field_types type; /* Type of field. See mysql_com.h for types */

请注意以下字段:catalog、table、org_name

现在您知道SQL中的哪个字段属于哪个模式(即目录)和表。 这足以从多表sql查询中通用地识别每个字段，而不需要别名。

一个实际的产品SqlYOG在这样一个庄园中使用这个确切的数据，当PK字段存在时，它们能够独立地更新多表连接的每个表。

我完全理解为什么这是必要的——至少对我来说，在快速创建原型时，有很多表需要连接，包括许多内部连接，这很方便。只要一个列名在第二个joinedtable中是相同的。*"字段通配符，主表的字段值将被joinedtable值覆盖。容易出错，令人沮丧和违反DRY时，必须手动指定表字段与别名一遍又一遍…

下面是一个PHP (Wordpress)函数，通过代码生成以及如何使用它的示例来实现这一点。在本例中，它用于快速生成一个自定义查询，该查询将提供通过高级自定义fields字段引用的相关wordpress帖子的字段。

function prefixed_table_fields_wildcard($table, $alias)
{
    global $wpdb;
    $columns = $wpdb->get_results("SHOW COLUMNS FROM $table", ARRAY_A);

    $field_names = array();
    foreach ($columns as $column)
    {
        $field_names[] = $column["Field"];
    }
    $prefixed = array();
    foreach ($field_names as $field_name)
    {
        $prefixed[] = "`{$alias}`.`{$field_name}` AS `{$alias}.{$field_name}`";
    }

    return implode(", ", $prefixed);
}

function test_prefixed_table_fields_wildcard()
{
    global $wpdb;

    $query = "
    SELECT
        " . prefixed_table_fields_wildcard($wpdb->posts, 'campaigns') . ",
        " . prefixed_table_fields_wildcard($wpdb->posts, 'venues') . "
        FROM $wpdb->posts AS campaigns
    LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta meta1 ON (meta1.meta_key = 'venue' AND campaigns.ID = meta1.post_id)
    LEFT JOIN $wpdb->posts venues ON (venues.post_status = 'publish' AND venues.post_type = 'venue' AND venues.ID = meta1.meta_value)
    WHERE 1
    AND campaigns.post_status = 'publish'
    AND campaigns.post_type = 'campaign'
    LIMIT 1
    ";

    echo "<pre>$query</pre>";

    $posts = $wpdb->get_results($query, OBJECT);

    echo "<pre>";
    print_r($posts);
    echo "</pre>";
}

输出:

不能这样做没有别名，只是因为，你将如何引用一个字段在where子句，如果该字段存在于2或3个表，你要连接? 这将是不清楚的mysql，你试图引用哪一个。

我知道的唯一一个这样做的数据库是SQLite，这取决于你使用PRAGMA full_column_names和PRAGMA short_column_names配置的设置。参见http://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html

否则，如果在查询中键入列名对您来说太麻烦的话，我所能建议的是通过序号位置而不是通过列名来获取结果集中的列。

这是一个很好的例子，说明了为什么使用SELECT *是不好的做法——因为最终您还是需要输入所有列名。

我理解需要支持可能更改名称或位置的列，但使用通配符会使这变得更加困难，而不是更容易。

我完全理解您关于重复字段名的问题。

我也需要它，直到我编写了自己的函数来解决它。如果您正在使用PHP，您可以使用它，或者如果您有以下设施，则可以使用您正在使用的语言编写代码。

这里的技巧是mysql_field_table()返回表名，mysql_field_name()返回结果中每一行的字段(如果它是使用mysql_num_fields()获得的)，这样您就可以将它们混合在一个新数组中。

这是所有列的前缀;)

问候,

function mysql_rows_with_columns($query) {
    $result = mysql_query($query);
    if (!$result) return false; // mysql_error() could be used outside
    $fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
    $rows = array();
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { 
        $newRow = array();
        for ($i=0; $i<$fields; $i++) {
            $table = mysql_field_table($result, $i);
            $name = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
            $newRow[$table . "." . $name] = $row[$i];
        }
        $rows[] = $newRow;
    }
    mysql_free_result($result);
    return $rows;
}

I see two possible situations here. First, you want to know if there is a SQL standard for this, that you can use in general regardless of the database. No, there is not. Second, you want to know with regard to a specific dbms product. Then you need to identify it. But I imagine the most likely answer is that you'll get back something like "a.id, b.id" since that's how you'd need to identify the columns in your SQL expression. And the easiest way to find out what the default is, is just to submit such a query and see what you get back. If you want to specify what prefix comes before the dot, you can use "SELECT * FROM a AS my_alias", for instance.
