Syntax

sys.fn_cdc_is_bit_set (position,update_mask)

Arguments

  • position
    Is the ordinal position in the mask to check. position is int.

  • update_mask
    Is the mask identifying updated columns. update_mask is varbinary(128).

Return Type

bit

Remarks

This function is typically used as part of a change data query to indicate whether a column has changed. In this scenario, the function sys.fn_cdc_get_column_ordinal is used before the query to obtain the required column ordinal. sys.fn_cdc_is_bit_set is then applied to each row of change data that is returned, providing the column-specific information as part of the returned result set.

We recommend using this function instead of the function sys.fn_cdc_has_column_changed when determining whether columns have changed for all rows of a returned result set.

Examples

The following example uses sys.fn_cdc_is_bit_set to prepend to the result set generated by the query function cdc.fn_cdc_get_all_changes_HR_Department the column 'IsGroupNmUpdated' using the precomputed column ordinal and the value of __$update_mask as arguments to the call.
