SQL Case 表达式的完整且正确的语法是什么?
8 回答
完整的语法取决于您使用的数据库引擎:
对于 SQL Server:
CASE case-expression
WHEN when-expression-1 THEN value-1
[ WHEN when-expression-n THEN value-n ... ]
[ ELSE else-value ]
END
或者:
CASE
WHEN boolean-when-expression-1 THEN value-1
[ WHEN boolean-when-expression-n THEN value-n ... ]
[ ELSE else-value ]
END
表达式等:
case-expression - something that produces a value
when-expression-x - something that is compared against the case-expression
value-1 - the result of the CASE statement if:
the when-expression == case-expression
OR the boolean-when-expression == TRUE
boolean-when-exp.. - something that produces a TRUE/FALSE answer
另请注意,WHEN 语句的顺序很重要。您可以轻松编写多个重叠的 WHEN 子句,并使用第一个匹配的WHEN 子句。
注意:如果没有指定 ELSE 子句,并且没有找到匹配的 WHEN 条件,则 CASE 表达式的值为NULL。
考虑到您标记了多个产品,我想说完全正确的语法是 ISO/ANSI SQL-92 标准中的语法:
<case expression> ::=
<case abbreviation>
| <case specification>
<case abbreviation> ::=
NULLIF <left paren> <value expression> <comma>
<value expression> <right paren>
| COALESCE <left paren> <value expression>
{ <comma> <value expression> }... <right paren>
<case specification> ::=
<simple case>
| <searched case>
<simple case> ::=
CASE <case operand>
<simple when clause>...
[ <else clause> ]
END
<searched case> ::=
CASE
<searched when clause>...
[ <else clause> ]
END
<simple when clause> ::= WHEN <when operand> THEN <result>
<searched when clause> ::= WHEN <search condition> THEN <result>
<else clause> ::= ELSE <result>
<case operand> ::= <value expression>
<when operand> ::= <value expression>
<result> ::= <result expression> | NULL
<result expression> ::= <value expression>
语法规则
1) NULLIF (V1, V2) is equivalent to the following <case specification>:
CASE WHEN V1=V2 THEN NULL ELSE V1 END
2) COALESCE (V1, V2) is equivalent to the following <case specification>:
CASE WHEN V1 IS NOT NULL THEN V1 ELSE V2 END
3) COALESCE (V1, V2, . . . ,n ), for n >= 3, is equivalent to the
following <case specification>:
CASE WHEN V1 IS NOT NULL THEN V1 ELSE COALESCE (V2, . . . ,n )
END
4) If a <case specification> specifies a <simple case>, then let CO
be the <case operand>:
a) The data type of each <when operand> WO shall be comparable
with the data type of the <case operand>.
b) The <case specification> is equivalent to a <searched case>
in which each <searched when clause> specifies a <search
condition> of the form "CO=WO".
5) At least one <result> in a <case specification> shall specify a
<result expression>.
6) If an <else clause> is not specified, then ELSE NULL is im-
plicit.
7) The data type of a <case specification> is determined by ap-
plying Subclause 9.3, "Set operation result data types", to the
data types of all <result expression>s in the <case specifica-
tion>.
Access Rules
None.
General Rules
1) Case:
a) If a <result> specifies NULL, then its value is the null
value.
b) If a <result> specifies a <value expression>, then its value
is the value of that <value expression>.
2) Case:
a) If the <search condition> of some <searched when clause> in
a <case specification> is true, then the value of the <case
specification> is the value of the <result> of the first
(leftmost) <searched when clause> whose <search condition> is
true, cast as the data type of the <case specification>.
b) If no <search condition> in a <case specification> is true,
then the value of the <case expression> is the value of the
<result> of the explicit or implicit <else clause>, cast as
the data type of the <case specification>.
以下是CASE
PostgreSQL 文档中的语句示例(此处 Postgres 遵循 SQL 标准):
SELECT a,
CASE WHEN a=1 THEN 'one'
WHEN a=2 THEN 'two'
ELSE 'other'
END
FROM test;
或者
SELECT a,
CASE a WHEN 1 THEN 'one'
WHEN 2 THEN 'two'
ELSE 'other'
END
FROM test;
显然,当您仅根据可能值列表检查一个字段时,第二种形式更清晰。第一种形式允许更复杂的表达式。
Sybase 的大小写语法与 SQL Server 相同:
描述
支持条件SQL表达式;可以在任何可以使用值表达式的地方使用。
句法
case
when search_condition then expression
[when search_condition then expression]...
[else expression]
end
大小写和值语法
case expression
when expression then expression
[when expression then expression]...
[else expression]
end
参数
案子
开始 case 表达式。
什么时候
在要比较的搜索条件或表达式之前。
搜索条件
用于设置所选结果的条件。case 表达式的搜索条件类似于 where 子句中的搜索条件。Transact-SQL 用户指南中详细介绍了搜索条件。
然后
在指定 case 结果值的表达式之前。
表达
是列名、常量、函数、子查询,或通过算术或位运算符连接的列名、常量和函数的任意组合。有关表达式的更多信息,请参阅中的“表达式”。
例子
select disaster,
case
when disaster = "earthquake"
then "stand in doorway"
when disaster = "nuclear apocalypse"
then "hide in basement"
when monster = "zombie apocalypse"
then "hide with Chuck Norris"
else
then "ask mom"
end

我挖出了相同的 Oracle 页面,看起来这是相同的语法,只是描述略有不同。
11g 文档中的Oracle语法:
CASE { simple_case_expression | searched_case_expression }
[ else_clause ]
END
simple_case_expression
expr { WHEN comparison_expr THEN return_expr }...
searched_case_expression
{ WHEN condition THEN return_expr }...
else_clause
ELSE else_expr
在这里,您可以找到SQL 中 MySQL 案例语句的完整指南。
CASE
WHEN some_condition THEN return_some_value
ELSE return_some_other_value
END
SQL SERVER 中的 case 语句语法:
CASE column
WHEN value1 THEN 1
WHEN value3 THEN 2
WHEN value3 THEN 3
WHEN value1 THEN 4
ELSE ''
END
我们也可以像下面这样使用:
CASE
WHEN column=value1 THEN 1
WHEN column=value3 THEN 2
WHEN column=value3 THEN 3
WHEN column=value1 THEN 4
ELSE ''
END
