SQL Server有哪些隐藏特性?

例如,没有文档的系统存储过程,做一些非常有用但没有足够文档的事情的技巧?

存储过程

sp_msforeachtable: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each table name (v6.5 and up) sp_msforeachdb: Runs a command with '?' replaced with each database name (v7 and up) sp_who2: just like sp_who, but with a lot more info for troubleshooting blocks (v7 and up) sp_helptext: If you want the code of a stored procedure, view & UDF sp_tables: return a list of all tables and views of database in scope. sp_stored_procedures: return a list of all stored procedures xp_sscanf: Reads data from the string into the argument locations specified by each format argument. xp_fixeddrives:: Find the fixed drive with largest free space sp_help: If you want to know the table structure, indexes and constraints of a table. Also views and UDFs. Shortcut is Alt+F1

Vardecimal存储格式

SQL Server 2005为数字和十进制数据类型添加了一种新的存储格式,称为vardecimal。Vardecimal是十进制类型的一种变长表示,可以在行的每个实例中保存未使用的字节。如果十进制定义很大(如decimal(38,6)),但存储的值很小(如0.0),或者有大量重复值,或者数据填充稀疏,则可以节省最多的时间。

行构造函数

您可以用一个插入语句插入多行数据。

INSERT INTO Colors (id, Color)
VALUES (1, 'Red'),
       (2, 'Blue'),
       (3, 'Green'),
       (4, 'Yellow')

我不确定这是否是一个隐藏的功能,但我偶然发现了这个功能,并发现它在很多情况下都很有用。您可以在单个选择语句中连接一组字段,而不是使用游标并遍历选择语句。

例子:

DECLARE @nvcConcatonated nvarchar(max)
SET @nvcConcatonated = ''

SELECT @nvcConcatonated = @nvcConcatonated + C.CompanyName + ', '
FROM tblCompany C
WHERE C.CompanyID IN (1,2,3)

SELECT @nvcConcatonated

结果:

Acme, Microsoft, Apple,

@Gatekiller -一个更简单的方法来获得日期肯定是

CAST(CONVERT(varchar,getdate(),103) as datetime)

如果在本地不使用DD/MM/YYYY,则需要使用与103不同的值。SQL Books Online中的查找转换函数用于区域代码。

有时没有合适的列来排序,或者您只是想要表上的默认排序顺序,并且希望枚举每一行。为了做到这一点,你可以把“(select 1)”放在“order by”子句中,你就会得到你想要的东西。整洁的,是吗?

select row_number() over (order by (select 1)), * from dbo.Table as t

SQL Server 2005:

select * from sys.dm_os_performance_counters

select * from sys.dm_exec_requests
