使用子查询返回正确的分组，因为您已经完成了一半。

试试这个:

select
    a.*
from
    messages a
    inner join 
        (select name, max(id) as maxid from messages group by name) as b on
        a.id = b.maxid

如果它不是id，你想要的最大值:

select
    a.*
from
    messages a
    inner join 
        (select name, max(other_col) as other_col 
         from messages group by name) as b on
        a.name = b.name
        and a.other_col = b.other_col

通过这种方式，可以避免在子查询中进行相关子查询和/或排序，这往往非常缓慢/低效。

试试这个:

SELECT jos_categories.title AS name,
       joined .catid,
       joined .title,
       joined .introtext
FROM   jos_categories
       INNER JOIN (SELECT *
                   FROM   (SELECT `title`,
                                  catid,
                                  `created`,
                                  introtext
                           FROM   `jos_content`
                           WHERE  `sectionid` = 6
                           ORDER  BY `id` DESC) AS yes
                   GROUP  BY `yes`.`catid` DESC
                   ORDER  BY `yes`.`created` DESC) AS joined
         ON( joined.catid = jos_categories.id )

嗨，这个查询可能会有帮助:

**

SELECT 
  *
FROM 
  message 

WHERE 
  `Id` IN (
    SELECT 
      MAX(`Id`) 
    FROM 
      message 
    GROUP BY 
      `Name`
  ) 
ORDER BY 
   `Id` DESC

我得到了一个不同的解决方案，这是获得每个组中最后一个帖子的id，然后从消息表中选择使用第一个查询的结果作为WHERE x IN构造的参数:

SELECT id, name, other_columns
FROM messages
WHERE id IN (
    SELECT MAX(id)
    FROM messages
    GROUP BY name
);

我不知道与其他一些解决方案相比，它的性能如何，但对于我有300多万行的表来说，它的效果非常好。(4秒执行，1200+结果)

这应该工作在MySQL和SQL Server。

一个相当快的方法如下。

SELECT * 
FROM messages a
WHERE Id = (SELECT MAX(Id) FROM messages WHERE a.Name = Name)

结果

Id  Name    Other_Columns
3   A   A_data_3
5   B   B_data_2
6   C   C_data_1

SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE primary_key IN (SELECT MAX(primary_key) FROM table_name GROUP BY column_name )
