深入理解Oracle索引(15)：日期转换函数的格式参数大小写规则对函数索引的影响

     规则如下：

     依据这个规则、只有 3 种输出：大写、小写、首字母大写
     
     测试如下：

sys@ORCL> select to_char(sysdate,'Month') from dual;

TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MONTH')
------------------------------------
June

sys@ORCL> select to_char(sysdate,'MOnth') from dual;

TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MONTH')
------------------------------------
JUNE

sys@ORCL> select to_char(sysdate,'month') from dual;

TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MONTH')
------------------------------------
june

     下面做个测试、确认这个规则对函数索引的影响：

sys@ORCL> drop table t purge;

Table dropped.

sys@ORCL> create table t as select object_id,sysdate+rownum as create_date from dba_objects where rownum<=5000;

Table created.

sys@ORCL> analyze table t compute statistics;

Table analyzed.

sys@ORCL> set autot trace exp
sys@ORCL> select * from t where to_char(create_date,'yyyy-mm-dd')='2011-06-02';

sys@ORCL> create index idx_t on t (to_char(create_date,'YYYY-MM-DD'));

Index created.

sys@ORCL> analyze index idx_t validate structure;

Index analyzed.

sys@ORCL> set autot off
sys@ORCL> create index idx_t_001 on t (to_char(create_date,'yyyy-mm-dd'));

Index created.

sys@ORCL> analyze index idx_t_001 validate structure;

Index analyzed.

sys@ORCL> select * from t where to_char(create_date,'yyyy-mm-dd')='2013-06-02';

no rows selected

sys@ORCL> set autot trace exp

第一种情况：小写

sys@ORCL> select * from t where to_char(create_date,'yyyy-mm-dd')='2013-06-02';
