Because FDM does not use bind variables, Oracle recommends setting the cursor_sharing initialization parameter to Similar instead of the default value of Exact. Cursor sharing is an auto-binder. It forces the database to rewrite queries (by using bind variables) before parsing queries.
Note: | Under some instances, the default value of cursor_sharing may be more appropriate. Consult Oracle Support if you are unsure about the best cursor sharing setting for your installation. |
