I would like to submit for (re-)appraisal ticket #1465, which implements regular expression field lookups (``__regex`` and ``__iregex``). A newly attached patch is up to date with trunk, and additionally has both case-sensitive and case-insensitive matching working for each of the supported database engines. Additionally, the new patch does *not* implement the admin searching functionality which was frowned upon during the last discussion of the code. The two issues I might see with the current patch are: 1) It does not include any tests. I'm quite willing to write them; it's just a matter of *where* they might go. :-) Of the two primary test locations, ``regressiontests`` seems wrong as this is not a fix for an existing bug; ``modeltests``, on the other hand, does not have a location where the entire current range of field lookups are tested. (Maybe this, in itself, is something that should be created?) 2) It lacks support for two of the included backends: ``oracle`` and ``ado_mssql``. If developers using either of these backends are aware of how to implement regular expression matching, feel free to ping me and/or the ticket, and I'll gladly include the code. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
