Oracle left outer join with is null in JOIN vs WHERE 条件（示例）

Question

我无法理解 Oracle 返回这个奇怪结果的原因。 我认为代码真的很清楚。

我期待 无条件 = (在 OUTER JOIN 条件下不为空) + (在 OUTER JOIN 条件下为空)

因为我将外部连接右表列中的 IS NULL / IS NOT NULL 解释为 EXISTS / NOT EXISTS 条件。

为什么我错了？

EXISTS/NOT EXISTS 等效查询是通过将NULL 条件放在WHERE 子句而不是OUTER JOIN 子句中获得的。顺便说一句，这是我们从您的结果中观察到的：

No condition                             6403
is not null in where cond                6401
is null in where cond                       2

主表中的 2 行在连接表中没有对应的 ID。

当您将条件放在OUTER JOIN 子句中时，您是在告诉Oracle 将OUTER JOIN 您的主表添加到连接表中的行子集。

由于c.flh_stato 永远不会为空，因此条件是多余的，我们得到的结果与无条件查询相同：

No condition                             6403
is NOT null in OUTER JOIN cond           6403

使用join子句中的条件c.flh_stato IS NULL，我们将主表连接到一个空的结果集，因此我们得到主表每一行的一行（我们用这个条件推导出主表有6247行):

is null in OUTER JOIN cond               6247
