SQL SELECT - Return boolean based on condition

Question

Essentially I\'m trying to do this

select  u.Hostname, u.IsCustom, (u.Status = 5) as IsActive
from    SiteUrlMappings u

Where 5 is an int r

Answer 1

You don't need a CASE expression
Just leverage how bit works: all non-zero values give 1 when cast to bit

SELECT
    u.Hostname,
    u.IsCustom,
    ~ CAST((u.Status - 5) AS bit) AS IsActive
from    SiteUrlMappings u
