Hello everyone! I have a table with a MEDIUMBLOB column:
CREATE TABLE mytab ( oid INTEGER ... odata MEDIUMBLOB ); in the mediumblob field i store an encoded string (bytes). I would like to perform regular expression searches on this field here is an example that works (produces matches): SELECT oid FROM mytab WHERE odata LIKE "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"\ngmosx%"; here is an example that doesnt work (no matches returned): SELECT oid FROM mytab WHERE odata LIKE "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"\017athens1234%"; the \017 character seems to be the problem since the following produces matches: SELECT oid FROM mytab WHERE odata LIKE "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"_athens1234%"; I tried using a MEDIUMTEXT and/or REGEXP but without success! Any idea how to do string matches on string-encoded binary data? Thanks in advance for any info!
