Oracle PL/SQL之函数索引（Function-based indexes）使用示例

函数索引（Function-based indexes）只有在where条件使用了与索引中相同的基于相同列的函数时才起作用。 

duzz$scott@orcl>set autotrace on
duzz$scott@orcl>create table t1 as select * from dept;

Table created.

Elapsed: 00:00:00.01
duzz$scott@orcl>create index loc_idx on t1(upper(loc));

Index created.

Elapsed: 00:00:00.06
duzz$scott@orcl>select * from t1 where deptno=20;

    DEPTNO DNAME                                      LOC
