I experimented a bit with this test. It looks like RI is doing following:
if all the bytes from the pattern occured in the blob in the same
sequence as in the pattern (possibly with any other bytes between
them)
Is it reasonable?
Should Harmony follow RI's behaviour? Or just find the exact byte array in
blob data?
Could jdbc/db gurus give some suggestions? Thanks a lot in adavance!
then it returns <the position where it found the last byte from
the pattern> - (<the pattern length> - 1).E.g. if the blob contents is
1,3,9,1,1,3,2,2,4,2,3,9,3,3 and the
pattern is 1,2,3 then it takes the position of the third occurence of
3 (after 1 and 2 occured) and subtracts 2 (the pattern length - 1)
from it. Then the return value is 9.
This behavior of RI seems to be undocumented and illogical.
