Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: 9.2.0.5, views, queries, and pushing predicates.....
I confess, I haven't read the to_number thread completely. But I
thought, to_number thread was(is?) about view merging, not pushing the
predicates to the view. View doesn't need to be merged, but the
predicates can be pushed, right ? Or Are you mocking something( which I
didn't get )?
Looking at the Mark's case, I think, it is more of a CBO decision not to
push the predicates due to bind variables. Usage of bind variables
introduces few assumptions in the cardinality calculations and that
might disallow CBO from pushing the predicates. Mark, can you please
look at the explain plan and see whether the view is being merged in any
of this case ? Further, you might want to review the 10053 trace output
for these two conditions and my guess is that cardinality calculations
are causing this issue.
Thanks

If we follow the argument that was brought forward in the to_number
thread,
then the predicate must never be pushed into the view because the writer
of
the sql obviously wanted the view to be "materialized" before applying
the
outer predicate.
