举几个例子来简单说明 这些例子我引用了Northwind库。

1. TOP 表达式
SQL Server 2000的TOP是个固定值,是不是觉得不爽,现在改进了。

 

--前n名的订单
declare
@n int

set @n = 10

select TOP(@n) * from Orders

 


2. 分页

不知各位过去用SQL Server 2000是怎么分页的,大多都用到了临时表。SQL Server 2005一句话就支持分页,性能据说也非常不错。

 

 

--按Freight从小到大排序,求20到30行的结果
select * from(
select OrderId, Freight, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(order by Freight) as row from
Orders
) a
where row between 20 and 30

 


3. 排名

 

 

select * from(
select OrderId, Freight, RANK() OVER(order by Freight) as rank from
Orders
) a
where rank between 20 and 30

 


4. try ... catch

SQL Server 2000没有异常,T-SQL必须逐行检查错误代码,对于习惯了try catch程序员,2005是不是更加亲切:

 

 

SET XACT_ABORT ON -- 打开 try功能
BEGIN TRY
begin tran

insert into Orders(CustomerId) values(-1
)
commit tran

print 'commited'

END
TRY
BEGIN
CATCH
rollback

print 'rolled back'

END CATCH

 


5. 通用表达式CTE

通过表达式可免除你过去创建临时表的麻烦。

 

 

--例子:结合通用表达式进行分页
WITH OrderFreight AS
(
select OrderId, Freight, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(order by Freight) as row from
Orders
)
select OrderId, Freight from OrderFreight where row between 10 and 20

特别,通过表达式还支持递归。
