<div class="block">Defines hints interfaces and utilities for relational expressions.
<h2>The Syntax</h2>
We support the Oracle style hint grammar for both query hint(right after the "SELECT" keyword)
and the table hint(right after the table name reference). i.e.
<blockquote><pre>
select &#47;&#42;&#43; NO_HASH_JOIN, RESOURCE(mem='128mb', parallelism='24') &#42;&#47;
from
emp &#47;&#42;&#43; INDEX(idx1, idx2) &#42;&#47;
join
dept &#47;&#42;&#43; PROPERTIES(k1='v1', k2='v2') &#42;&#47;
on emp.deptno=dept.deptno
</pre></blockquote>
<h2>Customize Hint Match Rules</h2>
Calcite implements a framework to define and propagate the hints. In order to make the hints
propagate efficiently, every hint referenced in the sql statement needs to
register the match rules for hints propagation.
<p>A match rule is defined though <a href="../../../../../org/apache/calcite/rel/hint/HintPredicate.html" title="interface in org.apache.calcite.rel.hint"><code>HintPredicate</code></a>.
<a href="../../../../../org/apache/calcite/rel/hint/NodeTypeHintPredicate.html" title="class in org.apache.calcite.rel.hint"><code>NodeTypeHintPredicate</code></a> matches a relational expression
by its node type; you can also define a custom instance with more complicated rules,
i.e. JOIN with specified relations from the hint options.
<p>Here is the code snippet to illustrate how to config the strategies:
<pre>
// Initialize a HintStrategyTable.
HintStrategyTable strategies = HintStrategyTable.builder()
.addHintStrategy("time_zone", HintPredicates.SET_VAR)
.addHintStrategy("index", HintPredicates.TABLE_SCAN)
.addHintStrategy("resource", HintPredicates.PROJECT)
.addHintStrategy("use_hash_join",
HintPredicates.and(HintPredicates.JOIN,
HintPredicates.explicit((hint, rel) -&gt; {
...
})))
.hintStrategy("use_merge_join",
HintStrategyTable.strategyBuilder(
HintPredicates.and(HintPredicates.JOIN, joinWithFixedTableName()))
.excludedRules(EnumerableRules.ENUMERABLE_JOIN_RULE).build())
.build();
// Config the strategies in the config.
SqlToRelConverter.Config config = SqlToRelConverter.configBuilder()
.withHintStrategyTable(strategies)
.build();
// Use the config to initialize the SqlToRelConverter.
...
</pre>
<h2>Hints Propagation</h2>
There are two cases that need to consider the hints propagation:
<ul>
<li>Right after a <code>SqlNode</code> tree is converted to <code>RelNode</code> tree, we would
propagate the hints from the attaching node to its input(children) nodes. The hints are
propagated recursively with a <code>RelShuttle</code>, see
RelOptUtil#RelHintPropagateShuttle for how it works.</li>
<li>During rule planning, in the transforming phrase of a <code>RelOptRule</code>,
you <strong>should not</strong> copy the hints by hand. To ensure correctness,
the hints copy work within planner rule is taken care of by Calcite;
We make some effort to make the thing easier: right before the new relational expression
was registered into the planner, the hints of the old relational expression was
copied into the new expression sub-tree(by "new" we mean, the node was created
just in the planner rule) if the nodes implement
<a href="../../../../../org/apache/calcite/rel/hint/Hintable.html" title="interface in org.apache.calcite.rel.hint"><code>Hintable</code></a>.</li>
</ul>
