oracle细节之like模糊查询不能走索引？

这里要纠正一个网上很多教程说的模糊匹配不能走索引的说法，因为在看《收获，不止SQL优化》一书，里面举例说到了，并且自己也跟着例子实践了一下，确实like一些特殊情况也是可以走索引的

例子来自《收获，不止SQL优化》一书，实践准备：

//建表，注意要非空数据
drop table t purge;
create table t as select * from dba_objects where object_id is not null;

select * from t;

//更新数据并建索引，用来测试
update t set object_id=rownum;

update t set object_name='AAALJB' where object_id=8;

update t set object_name='LJBAAA' where object_id=10;

create index idx_object_name on t(object_name);

用set autotrace on用来打印执行计划，这里注意了，用LJB%去模糊匹配，然后观察执行计划，发现是索引范围扫描INDEX RANGE SCAN 的，因为去匹配LJB开头的数据，索引是可以范围查询并匹配到，所以是能走范围索引扫描的，所以网上的说法是不全面的

SQL> set autotrace on
SQL> select object_id,object_name from t where object_name like 'LJB%';

上面列举了，能走索引的例子，然后改一下用%LJB去匹配，看看能不能走索引？

SQL> set autotrace on
SQL> select object_id,object_name from t where object_name like '%LJB';

例子可以看出是全表扫描的，不走索引，因为%LJB这种匹配，索引不能确认唯一性，同样的%LJB%去匹配也是不走索引的
