oracle välj från flera bord

Detta är definitivt ett problem med datamodellen när det gäller detta krav. Jag kan föreslå två alternativ:

Alternativ # 1: Skapa en enda tabell SPORTS genom att kombinera alla tabeller och ha en kolumn sport_type. Detta gör det möjligt att använda en valfråga i funktionen.

select  HOME,AWAY,COMP_NAME, M_TIME from SPORTS s
where s.HOME LIKE (:p_search_string) or s.AWAY LIKE (:p_search_string)
  and sport_type in 
(
'SOCCER',
'BASKETBALL',
'HANDBALL',
'ICE_HOCKEY',
'TENIST',
'VOLLEYBALL'
)

Alternativ # 2:

Create a view by combining all these tables and select from that view in this function.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW VW_SPORTS
AS
select HOME,AWAY,COMP_NAME, M_TIME, 'SOCCER' SPORT_TYPE from SOCCER
union all
select  HOME,AWAY,LISTS,M_TIME,'BASKETBALL' SPORT_TYPE from BASKETBALL 
union all
select HOME,AWAY,COMP,M_TIME,'HANDBALL' SPORT_TYPE from HANDBALL
union all
select  HOME,AWAY,LISTS,M_TIME,'ICE_HOCKEY' SPORT_TYPE from ICE_HOCKEY
union all
select  HOME,AWAY,COMP,M_TIME,'TENIST' SPORT_TYPE from TENISt
union all
select  HOME,AWAY,LISTS,M_TIME,'VOLLEYBALL' SPORT_TYPE  from VOLLEYBALL v;
