serveroutput参数

前两天同事碰到一个问题，10g版本下执行：

select /*+ no_index(t1 idx_t1) */ * from t1 where n=3;
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'advanced'));

提示：

PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SQL_ID  9m7787camwh4m, child number 0
begin :id := sys.dbms_transaction.local_transaction_id; end;
NOTE: cannot fetch plan for SQL_ID: 9m7787camwh4m, CHILD_NUMBER: 0
      Please verify value of SQL_ID and CHILD_NUMBER;
      It could also be that the plan is no longer in cursor cache (check v$sql_p

查了资料说是serveroutput需要设置为off，才能用dbms_xplan打印执行计划。

但尝试用了set serveroutput off后没有任何反应，而且也看不了serveroutput的任何设置值，很是奇怪。

分析：

1、以上语句是在PLSQL Developer的command windows中用的。PLSQL Developer是第三方的Oracle客户端工具，可能无法打印出这个dbms_xplan的执行计划。

2、serveroutput是sqlplus的语句或配置参数，不是数据库或sql的语句或配置参数。

3、set serveroutput on语句作用是打开oracle自带的输出方法dbms_output，在执行以后，使用dbms_output方法可以输出信息。所以不能在sql window中使用，该命令不是写在pl/sql中写的,是在sql/plus中执行。SQL WINDOW里面可以不加set serveroutput on就可以使用了。

资料显示：

1. sql> set serveroutput on

然后,在sqlplus中

2. sql> store set $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/glogin.sql replace

完成保存设置.

可以通过如下查看设置效果：

SQL> show serveroutput;serveroutput ON SIZE UNLIMITED FORMAT WORD_WRAPPED

说明设置成功。

glogin.sql如下：

COLUMN plan_plus_exp FORMAT a60
COLUMN object_node_plus_exp FORMAT a8
COLUMN other_tag_plus_exp FORMAT a29
COLUMN other_plus_exp FORMAT a44

基本都是格式化的内容。

当然也可以绕过PLSQL Developer的限制，按照http://www.itpub.net/thread-1749679-1-1.html的讲解：
