Re: using hints on views

I had to use hints inside views number of times and it worked well but you have to be careful. Hinting just the SQL statement that builds the view may be worse than no hinting at all. When you add hints you have to keep in mind how you will use the view. In result I ended up with few views, selecting the same columns from the same tables but hinted and ordered differently. It may look messy if you just look at the data dictionary but within application you know which button is clicked, what you query on etc... so you know which view you should use.
