I agree with Xavier. Try it and see how it goes. You should be able to use the existing qualifier and it will work.
Here’s a summary of things to try: 1) QualifierOperatorCaseInsensitiveLike - it should work. 2) Derived attribute - you can do “upper” in a derived attribute and then in java upper case the string and do an “equals” comparison 3) Create custom collation in the DB for that column so that it is case insensitive I ordered them by how easy to implement. First one is the easiest and third one is hardest but could be more performant in a large table. > On Aug 30, 2024, at 10:40 AM, Xavier (WO) via Webobjects-dev > <webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com> wrote: > > Hi André, > > You shouldn’t need to do anything, your String will be called as a variable, > the EOQualifer will escape the problematic characters for you. > > Xavier > > >> On 30 Aug 2024, at 16:17, André Rothe <andre.ro...@phosco.info> wrote: >> >> Hi Xavier, >> >> How I can escape the wildcards, with a backslash?
