I tried the following SQL statement which insert the random data into test table. I can see a lot of hard parse from SQL. Since I use the variable in SQL, should it be use same execution plan? What is the main reason for hard parse in this case?

Thanks,



declarel_number number;
begin  for i in 1..1000000  
loop  
l_number := dbms_random.random; 
execute immediate 
'insert into test_table values ( ' || l_number || ',' ||  l_number || ',' || l_number || ',' || l_number || ')';    
end loop;  
commit;
end;

Oracle's internal behavior differs based upon OS name & version
and Oracle version (SELECT * from v$version)

I can see the hard parse from different DB versions. For example , we can see it from Linux i386 and Oracle 10.2.0.4.

This is an example taken from T. Kyte answer in AskTom, read the whole thread and he explained very well the reason of hard parse.

Anyway, the reason is quite clear, the statement is different each time.

I'm curious as to why you'd repost part of an AskTom question here?

If you want to avoid hard parses, then do as Tom suggests, and use bind variables, rather than building a different statement each time.
