Oracle的Decode函数进行多值判断

转Decode函数的用法[@more@]Decode函数的语法结构如下:

decode (expression, search_1, result_1) decode (expression, search_1, result_1, search_2, result_2) decode (expression, search_1, result_1, search_2, result_2, ...., search_n, result_n) decode (expression, search_1, result_1, default) decode (expression, search_1, result_1, search_2, result_2, default) decode (expression, search_1, result_1, search_2, result_2, ...., search_n, result_n, default)

decode函数比较表达式和搜索字，如果匹配，返回结果；如果不匹配，返回default值；如果未定义default值，则返回空值。
以下是一个简单测试，用于说明Decode函数的用法:

SQL> create table t as select username,default_tablespace,lock_date from dba_users; Table created. SQL> select * from t; USERNAME DEFAULT_TABLESPACE LOCK_DATE ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --------- SYS SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM OUTLN SYSTEM CSMIG SYSTEM SCOTT SYSTEM EYGLE USERS DBSNMP SYSTEM WMSYS SYSTEM 20-OCT-04 8 rows selected. SQL> select username,decode(lock_date,null,'unlocked','locked') status from t; USERNAME STATUS ------------------------------ -------- SYS unlocked SYSTEM unlocked OUTLN unlocked CSMIG unlocked SCOTT unlocked EYGLE unlocked DBSNMP unlocked WMSYS locked 8 rows selected. SQL> select username,decode(lock_date,null,'unlocked') status from t; USERNAME STATUS ------------------------------ -------- SYS unlocked SYSTEM unlocked OUTLN unlocked CSMIG unlocked SCOTT unlocked EYGLE unlocked DBSNMP unlocked WMSYS 8 rows selected.
