SQL To Check
- Adjust the SQL Statement:
- Extract the tested SQL into the SQL Developer editor.
- Replace the COBOL name of each Host Variable with the equivalent database identifier :b<n> where n is a unique number identifying that host variable. If the same variable appears more than one in the SQL use the same database host variable id in all occurrences.
- Force the database to analyze the SQL in Rule Base mode by introducing the RULE database hint phrase.
Adjust the SQL Statement
- Generate the Explain Plan:
-
Position the cursor on the SQL statement.
-
Run the Explain Plan by hitting F10(or right-click anywhere on the SQL statement and click Explain Plan... from the context menu).
-
The generated plan will appear in the output tab.
