您可以对视图使用查询提示来强制Oracle在基表上使用索引。但您需要知道基础视图中基表(如果有的话)的别名。一般语法是
/*+ index(<<alias of view from query>> <<alias of table from view>> <<index name>>) */
一个例子
1)创建具有10000行相同行的表,并在该表上创建索引。索引没有选择性,所以Oracle不想使用它
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 create table foo
2 as
3 select 1 col1
4 from dual
5* connect by level <= 10000
SQL> /
Table created.
SQL> create index idx_foo on foo(col1);
Index created.
2)确认索引未正常使用,但Oracle将在使用时提供提示
SQL> set autotrace traceonly;
SQL> select * from foo where col1 = 1;
10000 rows selected.

3)现在创建视图。通过指定查询中的视图别名和视图定义中的表别名,验证针对视图的常规查询不使用索引,而是强制使用索引
SQL> create view vw_foo
2 as
3 select col1
4 from foo f;
View created.
SQL> select col1
2 from vw_foo
3 where col1 = 1;
10000 rows selected.

尽管如此,在试图优化查询时,提示通常是最后的手段——通常最好找出优化器缺少的信息并提供适当的统计数据,以便它能够自己做出正确的选择。这是一个更稳定的解决方案。双重原因是,当您被简化为指定涉及多个别名层的提示时——例如,对于触摸视图定义的人来说,通过更改表名的别名来中断查询太容易了。
