Are optimiser hints added by Oracle
Hi,
I have a user claiming that he is sending an SQL query to the database with no hints but then when he looks in DBA_HIST_SQLTEXT he is seeing:
SELECT /*+ opt_param('_optimiser_user_auto_indexes' 'on') parallel_index.....
He is using Java, JDBC, Hibernate to send the query to the DB.
I thought that only users can add hints - is it possible there is some mechanism within Oracle that adds hints (not that I see the point of this), or is he missing something on the Java side?
Thanks
