Author IF statement in Select
Renato Cramer

Hello all,

Is the use of IF statement restrict to Functions and Store Procedures?

I'm trying to use an IF within Select...

Example:
create view v1 as
select c1,
c2,
if c3 = 52 then 0
else 1
endif as base_irrf_13
from t1;

Thanks in advance,

Renato Cramer.

You can use "Case"

SELECT c1, c2, CASE WHEN c3 = 52 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END AS base_irrf_13 FROM
t1;
