Implementing a CASE Expression in a Natively Compiled Stored Procedure

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance

Applies to: Azure SQL Database and SQL Server starting SQL Server 2017 (14.x)

CASE expressions are supported in natively compiled T-SQL modules. The following example demonstrates a way to use the CASE expression in a query.

-- Query using a CASE expression in a natively compiled stored procedure.
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SOHOnlineOrderResult  
   WITH NATIVE_COMPILATION, SCHEMABINDING, EXECUTE AS OWNER  
   AS BEGIN ATOMIC WITH  (TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL = SNAPSHOT, LANGUAGE=N'us_english')  
   SELECT   
      SalesOrderID,   
      CASE (OnlineOrderFlag)   
      WHEN 1 THEN N'Order placed online by customer'  
      ELSE N'Order placed by sales person'  
      END  
   FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader_inmem
END  
GO  
  
EXEC dbo.usp_SOHOnlineOrderResult  
GO  

Applies to: SQL Server 2014 (12.x) and SQL Server starting SQL Server 2016 (13.x)

CASE expressions are not supported in natively compiled T-SQL modules. The following sample shows a way to implement the functionality of a CASE expression in a natively compiled stored procedure.

The code samples uses a table variable to construct a single result set. This is suitable only when processing a limited number of rows, because it involves creating an additional copy of the data rows.

You should test the performance of this workaround.

-- original query  
SELECT   
   SalesOrderID,   
   CASE (OnlineOrderFlag)   
   WHEN 1 THEN N'Order placed online by customer'  
   ELSE N'Order placed by sales person'  
   END  
FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader_inmem  
  
--  workaround for CASE in natively compiled stored procedures  
--  use a table for the single resultset  
CREATE TYPE dbo.SOHOnlineOrderResult AS TABLE  
(  
   SalesOrderID uniqueidentifier not null index ix_SalesOrderID,  
     OrderFlag nvarchar(100) not null  
) with (memory_optimized=on)  
go  
  
-- natively compiled stored procedure that includes the query  
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_SOHOnlineOrderResult  
   WITH NATIVE_COMPILATION, SCHEMABINDING, EXECUTE AS OWNER  
   AS BEGIN ATOMIC WITH  
      (TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL = SNAPSHOT, LANGUAGE=N'us_english')  
  
   -- table variable for creating the single resultset  
   DECLARE @result dbo.SOHOnlineOrderResult  
  
   -- CASE OnlineOrderFlag=1  
   INSERT @result   
   SELECT SalesOrderID, N'Order placed online by customer'  
      FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader_inmem  
      WHERE OnlineOrderFlag=1  
  
   -- ELSE  
   INSERT @result   
   SELECT SalesOrderID, N'Order placed by sales person'  
      FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader_inmem  
      WHERE OnlineOrderFlag!=1  
  
   -- return single resultset  
   SELECT SalesOrderID, OrderFlag FROM @result  
END  
GO  
  
EXEC dbo.usp_SOHOnlineOrderResult  
GO
