sql server - CASE WHEN bit THEN 'something' ELSE null END shortcut -


is there shortcut in ms sql server call case when bit 'something' else null end ? there way write differently?

example scenario:

declare @data table(issomething bit not null, value nvarchar(30) not null);  insert @data values (1, 'a'), (1, 'b'), (0, 'c'), (0, 'd');  select case when issomething = 1 value else null end, case when issomething = 1 'string' else null end, case when issomething = 0 'not ' + value else null end @data

i looking variant bit value 1 (true).

the concern readability of select statement , excesively long expression write simple case/if.

i use expressions in 1 of views bothers me most. not saying design of view or tables ideal. (in fact, not ideal!)

you use iif (sql server 2012+) supposed shorthand case, in opinion query ends being less readable (might matter of habit on end though):

select     iif(issomething = 1, value1, null) val1,     iif(issomething = 1, value2, null) val2,     iif(issomething = 0, value3, null) val3 @data

Unlimited choices in BASH case statement -

consider simple bash snippet: case $option in 1) image=${options[0]%.tar} ;; 2) image=${options[1]%.tar} ;; 3) image=${options[2]%.tar} ;; 4) image=${options[3]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" exit 1 esac in real script numbers goes 30. makes pretty long. can somehow specify cases variable? something this: case $option in $i) image=${options[$(($i-1))]%.tar} any pointer appreciated. you can match against multiple patterns in single clause: case $option in 1|2|3: echo "$option one, 2 or three" ;; esac if still typing you, can use simple pattern matching: case $option in # following matches # - single-digit numbers 0-9 # - two-digit numbers starting either 1 or 2 # - number 30 [0-9]|[12][0-9]|30) image=${options[$(($option-1))]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" 1>&2 exit 1 esac

apache - How do I stop my index.php being run twice for every user -

we've got webapp initial html served using apache , php. i noticed index.php being run twice every request. seems caused / effected rewrite rules in our .htaccess - rewritecond %{http_host} ^(www\.|hotels\.)ourdomain\.com$ [nc,or] rewritecond %{server_name} ^(www\.|hotels\.)ourdomain\.com$ [nc] rewriterule (.*) http://ourdomain.com/$1 [r=301] rewriterule ^hotels/([^/]+)/?\??(.*)$ ?d=$1&$2 [qsa] the final rule moving parameter url path query string. i.e. http://ourdomain.com/hotels/vegas?someparam=1 becomes http://ourdomain.com?d=vegas&someparam=1 if go directly query string version index.php run once. if use url redirected, index.php run twice (i'm checking adding error_log('end of index.php') file). so example going http://ourdomain.com/hotels/paris hits file twice http://ourdomain.com?d=paris hits once. i've seen this question , had @ blog mentioned , , can't find empty string url's (i've tried using yslow process). ...
