QSqlQuery does not return rows with QSqlQuery::bindValue, but does if I insert the values with QString::arg

Question

I have a call to QSqlQuery which returns no rows when I use QSqlQuery::bindValue, but does return rows when I add the values in with QString::arg.

Specifically, this returns nothing:

QSqlQuery q(QSqlDatabase::database( mDbAdapter->dbFilename() ));
q.prepare("select Focus.TextFormId as ID, Focus, TextForm, Gloss from (select TextFormId,group_concat( Transcription , ' ' ) as TextForm, group_concat( Gloss , '-' ) as Gloss from (select TextFormId,AllomorphId,Allomorph.Form as Transcription,LexicalEntryGloss.Form as Gloss from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers,Allomorph,LexicalEntryGloss where TextFormId in ( select TextFormId from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers where AllomorphId in (select _id from Allomorph where  LexicalEntryId=:LexicalEntryId and WritingSystem=:TextFormWS) ) and AllomorphId = Allomorph._id and Allomorph.LexicalEntryId = LexicalEntryGloss.LexicalEntryId and LexicalEntryGloss.WritingSystem=:GlossWS order by TextFormId, AllomorphOrder) group by TextFormId ) as Concatenation left join  ( select TextFormId, Form as Focus from Allomorph,MorphologicalAnalysisMembers on Allomorph._id=MorphologicalAnalysisMembers.AllomorphId and LexicalEntryId=:LexicalEntryId ) as Focus on Focus.TextFormId = Concatenation.TextFormId;");
q.bindValue(":LexicalEntryId", mLexicalEntryId);
q.bindValue(":GlossWS", mGlossWs.id());
q.bindValue(":TextFormWS", mTextFormWs.id());
if( !q.exec() )
    qWarning() << q.lastError().text() << q.executedQuery();

Whereas this returns the proper result

QSqlQuery q(QSqlDatabase::database( mDbAdapter->dbFilename() ));
q.prepare(
        QString("select Focus.TextFormId as ID, Focus, TextForm, Gloss from (select TextFormId,group_concat( Transcription , ' ' ) as TextForm, group_concat( Gloss , '-' ) as Gloss from (select TextFormId,AllomorphId,Allomorph.Form as Transcription,LexicalEntryGloss.Form as Gloss from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers,Allomorph,LexicalEntryGloss where TextFormId in ( select TextFormId from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers where AllomorphId in (select _id from Allomorph where  LexicalEntryId=%1 and WritingSystem=%3) ) and AllomorphId = Allomorph._id and Allomorph.LexicalEntryId = LexicalEntryGloss.LexicalEntryId and LexicalEntryGloss.WritingSystem=%2 order by TextFormId, AllomorphOrder) group by TextFormId ) as Concatenation left join  ( select TextFormId, Form as Focus from Allomorph,MorphologicalAnalysisMembers on Allomorph._id=MorphologicalAnalysisMembers.AllomorphId and LexicalEntryId=%1 ) as Focus on Focus.TextFormId = Concatenation.TextFormId;")
        .arg(mLexicalEntryId).arg(mGlossWs.id()).arg(mTextFormWs.id())
        );
if( !q.exec() )
    qWarning() << q.lastError().text() << q.executedQuery();

It would be quite a bit to reproduce the entire database, but here is the query in a more intelligible form:

select Focus.TextFormId as ID, Focus, TextForm, Gloss from (select TextFormId,group_concat( Transcription , ' ' ) as TextForm, group_concat( Gloss , '-' ) as Gloss
from 
(select TextFormId,AllomorphId,Allomorph.Form as Transcription,LexicalEntryGloss.Form as Gloss 
    from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers,Allomorph,LexicalEntryGloss 
    where TextFormId in 
        ( select TextFormId from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers where AllomorphId in 
            (select _id from Allomorph where  LexicalEntryId=%1 and WritingSystem=%3) ) 
        and AllomorphId = Allomorph._id 
        and Allomorph.LexicalEntryId = LexicalEntryGloss.LexicalEntryId 
        and LexicalEntryGloss.WritingSystem=%2 
        order by TextFormId, AllomorphOrder) 
    group by TextFormId ) as Concatenation 
    left join  
    ( select TextFormId, Form as Focus from Allomorph,MorphologicalAnalysisMembers 
        on Allomorph._id=MorphologicalAnalysisMembers.AllomorphId and LexicalEntryId=%1 ) 
    as Focus on Focus.TextFormId = Concatenation.TextFormId;

Granted that there are probably ways to improve the query, I searched the documents and couldn't find any indication that QSqlQuery::bindValue has restrictions.

Thank you. When I tried changing things around, that lead me to the solution. — adam.baker

I was eventually able to get this to work with binding by changing the the way I bound values. It works if I insert mLexicalEntryId twice using different placeholders (first example below), or if I use the ? notation for binding values (second example below). Though I otherwise prefer to use the placeholders, it feels silly to have two different placeholders for the same variable, so I will stick with ? notation.

q.prepare("select Focus.TextFormId as ID, Focus, TextForm, Gloss from (select TextFormId,group_concat( Transcription , ' ' ) as TextForm, group_concat( Gloss , '-' ) as Gloss from (select TextFormId,AllomorphId,Allomorph.Form as Transcription,LexicalEntryGloss.Form as Gloss from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers,Allomorph,LexicalEntryGloss where TextFormId in ( select TextFormId from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers where AllomorphId in (select _id from Allomorph where  LexicalEntryId=:One and WritingSystem=:Three) ) and AllomorphId = Allomorph._id and Allomorph.LexicalEntryId = LexicalEntryGloss.LexicalEntryId and LexicalEntryGloss.WritingSystem=:Two order by TextFormId, AllomorphOrder) group by TextFormId ) as Concatenation left join  ( select TextFormId, Form as Focus from Allomorph,MorphologicalAnalysisMembers on Allomorph._id=MorphologicalAnalysisMembers.AllomorphId and LexicalEntryId=:Four ) as Focus on Focus.TextFormId = Concatenation.TextFormId;");
q.bindValue(":One", mLexicalEntryId);
q.bindValue(":Two", mGlossWs.id());
q.bindValue(":Three", mTextFormWs.id());
q.bindValue(":Four", mLexicalEntryId);

q.prepare("select Focus.TextFormId as ID, Focus, TextForm, Gloss from (select TextFormId,group_concat( Transcription , ' ' ) as TextForm, group_concat( Gloss , '-' ) as Gloss from (select TextFormId,AllomorphId,Allomorph.Form as Transcription,LexicalEntryGloss.Form as Gloss from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers,Allomorph,LexicalEntryGloss where TextFormId in ( select TextFormId from MorphologicalAnalysisMembers where AllomorphId in (select _id from Allomorph where  LexicalEntryId=? and WritingSystem=?) ) and AllomorphId = Allomorph._id and Allomorph.LexicalEntryId = LexicalEntryGloss.LexicalEntryId and LexicalEntryGloss.WritingSystem=? order by TextFormId, AllomorphOrder) group by TextFormId ) as Concatenation left join  ( select TextFormId, Form as Focus from Allomorph,MorphologicalAnalysisMembers on Allomorph._id=MorphologicalAnalysisMembers.AllomorphId and LexicalEntryId=? ) as Focus on Focus.TextFormId = Concatenation.TextFormId;");
q.addBindValue(mLexicalEntryId);
q.addBindValue(mTextFormWs.id());
q.addBindValue(mGlossWs.id());
q.addBindValue(mLexicalEntryId);
