[FRG-7] problematic table reference syntax in explain plan #863
Description
[reporter="jvs", created="Mon, 19 Dec 2005 15:23:59 -0500 (GMT-05:00)"]
Contrived script below shows the problem. Besides being ugly, the table reference syntax in explain plan can lead to problems because the optimizer uses these strings to match relational expressions, so in this case it could get a false match (assuming the index names were contrived to match as well).
