DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC84288 Status: Closed

COMPARING TIMESTAMP TYPE COLUMN WITH CHAR/VARCHAR TYPE HOST VARIABLE MAY
GET SUBOPTIMAL QUERY PLAN IN V97

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
When query statement includes a predicate comparing a TIMESTAMP 
base table column with a host variable of type CHAR or VARCHAR, 
a TIMESTAMP casting function may be added out of the host 
variable, and that may cause the predicate to be not optimized 
and evaluated very efficiently. That TIMESTAMP casting function 
can be found in "Optimized Statement" section of db2exfmt 
generated query plan.
