我们知道outlines 特性在oracle 8i就引入了，不过我用的很少，今天同事问到了，
我也就再回顾温习一下，如下是做的简单测试。
首先先来看2个跟outline相关的参数：
create_stored_outlines ---控制是否自动创建outline
use_stored_outlines ---控制是否启用outline

使用outline的方式有很多种，列出如下几种方式：

1. 针对sql语句或sqlid
SQL> conn roger/roger
Connected.
SQL> alter session set create_stored_outlines = true;

Session altered.

SQL> select * from v$version where rownum <2;

这里需要说明一下的是alter session set create_stored_outlines = true;这是由于bug5454975的缘故（10204已经修复）
虽然我这里是10204，不过我还是设置了一下，列出来说明，以提醒大家。详见metalink ID 445126.1

最后再补充一下，如果不用outline，那么可以将其删除，可以通过如下的几种方式：

execute DBMS_OUTLN.drop_by_cat('TEST_OUTLINES');

execute DBMS_OUTLN.CLEAR_USED('TEST_OUTLINES');

execute DBMS_OUTLN.drop_unused; ---这是删除所有状态为unused的outline，要慎重。

SQL> show parameter outline

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
_outline_bitmap_tree                 boolean     TRUE
_plan_outline_data                   boolean     TRUE
create_stored_outlines               string
SQL>
关于outlines的使用，有几个需要注意的地方：

1.  参数cursor_sharing设置为force时，outlines将无效；
2.  literial sql的共享程度不高的情况下，使用outline会生产很多个执行计划，可能会有一些问题；
3.  一般情况我们在使用outline的时候，也是发现某个sql的执行计划不稳定的时候，由于执行计划是基于
统计信息的，那么由于生产系统中统计信息可能是在不断的变化，那么使用outline固定的执行计划不见得
一定就是最好的，这一点需要考虑。
4.  由于outlines信息的存放在用户outln下，那么该用户就显得尤为重要，维护的时候需要注意，不能随便
给drop了。
5.  outline创建以后，不是说就一层不变了，可以进行编辑，至于什么时候编辑，怎么编辑，大家可以参考
metalink 文档730062.1 How to Edit a Stored Outline to Use the Plan from Another Stored Outline。
