MySQL索引使用：字段为varchar类型时，条件要使用''包起来

结论：

当MySQL中字段为int类型时，搜索条件where num='111' 与where num=111都可以使用该字段的索引。
当MySQL中字段为varchar类型时，搜索条件where num='111' 可以使用索引，where num=111 不可以使用索引

验证过程：

建表语句：

CREATE TABLE `gyl` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `str` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `num` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `obj` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  KEY `str_x` (`str`),
  KEY `num_x` (`num`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

　　向表中使用自复制语句插入数据

insert into gyl (`str`,`num`)values(123123,'12313');

insert into gyl (`str`,`num`) select `str`,`num` from gyl;

更改数据 update gyl set num=id,str=id

结果：

mysql> explain
select * from gyl where str=123123 limit 1;
