Regex for wild-card search

• Search for wild-card using %

  I have a question about wild-card searches. I currently have a behind the scenes as to search for a string within a string...
  
  However, if the user wants to put in a wild card like '% report % AP... I would like to go back to all those who start with AP and relate to them - is - it possible using APEX? I currently do not receive all the records as the % is considered literally. As our users are used for Oracle, we will have users who will be key in a % when searching and we need it works!
  
  Can someone help me with this please?
  
  Thank you!

  Ahh, one of us was on a red herring, sorry.

  Not accustomed to see double quotes, don't think that they are identifiers case-insensitive to column do not.

  Your original code

  instr(upper("REPORT_DESC"),upper(nvl(:P11_REPORT_SEARCH,"REPORT_DESC"))) > 0 
  

  Is the same as

  upper(report_desc) like '%'||UPPER(:P11_REPORT_SEARCH)||'%'
  

  Then you may as well write it like this, and then the winning cards will be interpreted as such.

• Wild-Card search

  Hello
  
  I have a requirement in which I need to find similar names in two different tables. for example, I have 2 tables: -.
  
  CREATE TABLE CUST_NAME1 (CUSTOMER_NAME1 VARCHAR2 (1000));
  
  CREATE TABLE CUST_NAME2 (CUSTOMER_NAME2 VARCHAR2 (1000));
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME1 VALUES ('JOHN SMITH');
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME1 VALUES ("GEORGE BUSH");
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME1 VALUES ('MIKE ABRAHAM LINCOLN');
  
  
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME2 VALUES ('JOHN SMITH');
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME2 VALUES ("GEORGE W. BUSH");
  
  INSERT INTO CUST_NAME2 VALUES ('ABRAHAM LINCOLN');
  
  Now, I understand that they may be the same person or not, but I want to give smilar matches (1st row = rank 1 and so on)

• for IN wild card

  Hello

  Thank you for reading my question:

  by 11.2.0.3,

  possible to use the wild card character in the following:

  Select * from mytable where sk_name in ('TTsk_namehhh', 'DDsk_namekkk', 'POsk_namegfh', '... ») ;

  To become:

  Select * from mytable where sk_name in ('TTsk_namehhh %', '% DDsk_namekkk', 'POsk_namegfh %', '...) ») ;

  I did find it in the documentation.

  Thank you and best regards.

  Thanks DOM.

  but it's not clear to me. Can you be more specific please?

  It would be like this:

  1. SELECT *.
  2. FROM my_table
  3. WHERE as sk_name (SELECT VALUE (t) FROM TABLE (CAST (TTsk_namehhh ',' DDsk_namekkk ', ' POsk_namegfh AS VARCHAR)) t);

  Kind regards.

• Text Oracle (type index CTXCAT) index does not not with wild-card leader

  Hi Experts,
  
  We are on Oracle 11.2.0.2 on Solaris 10 and I implemented the Oracle text as in the example below:
  

  CREATE TABLE TEST_USER
  (
    FIRST_NAME  VARCHAR2(64 CHAR)                 NOT NULL,
    LAST_NAME   VARCHAR2(64 CHAR)                 NOT NULL
  );
  
  
  CREATE INDEX TEST_USER_IDX3 ON TEST_USER
  (FIRST_NAME)
  INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CTXCAT
  PARAMETERS('LEXER cust_lexer');
  
  
  CREATE INDEX TEST_USER_IDX4 ON TEST_USER
  (LAST_NAME)
  INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CTXCAT
  PARAMETERS('LEXER cust_lexer');
  
  Dont worry about the cust_lexer, it is for diacritical search and it is not relevant to this question so I am not copying the code for the preference I created etc.
  Now I have a row of data in the table with first_name column as Supervisor. If I run the below sql, it gives output:
  
  SELECT *
    FROM test_user
   WHERE catsearch (first_name, 'Supervisor', NULL) > 0;
  
  FIRST_NAME                     LAST_NAME
  ------------------------------ ------------------------------
  Supervisor                     upervisor
  
  --even the below sql with wild card (*) at the end works fine...
  SQL> SELECT *
    2    FROM test_user
    3   WHERE catsearch (first_name, 'Super*', NULL) > 0;
  
  FIRST_NAME                     LAST_NAME
  ------------------------------ ------------------------------
  Supervisor                     upervisor
  
  
  However the below sql queries doesn't give any output, though they should return the same row as above!
  
  SQL> SELECT *
    2    FROM test_user
    3   WHERE catsearch (first_name, '*visor', NULL) > 0;
  
  no rows selected
  
  
  SQL> SELECT *
    2    FROM test_user
    3   WHERE catsearch (first_name, '*vis*', NULL) > 0;
  
  no rows selected

  I've already implemented it and now faced with this question that queries do not work as expected - can anyone suggest what we can do for this problem?
  
  Thank you

  When you create a ctxcat index, it creates different tables index field. You can query like this:

  select dr$token from dr$TEST_USER_IDX3$i;
  

  ... to see which tokens are created by the indexing. In your case, I think that you will find just the word 'controller' in the name, is that you can go. This documentation gives to think than catsearch and wildcards don't mix, unless you use the query template feature.

  I'm more familiar with CTXSYS. CONTEXT clues, though:

  drop index TEST_USER_IDX3;
  
  SQL> CREATE INDEX TEST_USER_IDX3 ON TEST_USER
    2  (FIRST_NAME)
    3  INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT;
  
  SQL> select * from test_user where contains (first_name, '%vis%')>0;
  
  FIRST_NAME                                                       LAST_NAME
  ---------------------------------------------------------------- -----------
  Supervisor                                                       Ubervisor 
  

  Anyway, since I've linked the document, I think you might need to check the query patterns.

  There's a specific forum Oracle Text here, however, and if you can get Barbara Boehmer to read your question there, she'll probably have a definitive answer for you.

  PS: She may already have provided in Re: wildcard search, on which she stated that "since catsearch does not support wildcards left you need context...» ».

• Table wild-card sorting

  Does anyone know if Flash recognizes * as a wild card table search option.
  for example myArray.sorton("bob*")
  Retune all table objects that contain "bob" as a prefix for an entry.
  
  If so do you have a simple example?
  
  Thanks in advance.

  No it does ' t, you need to use a custom comparison function to do.

• Arguments using Wild-Card in Shell command authorization

  The Shell permission command Set allows the use of wild-card?

  For example, according to command shell permission, what can I put the arguments if I want to enable the command show interface fastethernet 0/1-24 run?

  And also, what should I put in as argument for a ip address if I want to allow "ping x.x.x.x"?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  There are two wildcard characters used under authority of command Shell is the first ' ^ ' sign which designates anything that comes after this is accepted and the second wildcard is ' $' which means anything that is before. In your case, you can use

  Interface FastEthernet 0 1 ^

  and

  Ping ^.

  These commands allow access each Fastethernet and ping to an IP address.

  Do you use the back button to return to a previous page?

  You receive an alert to send POST data if you return to a page or refresh a page that was requested in advance from the server by submitting form via a (hidden) MESSAGE form data.
  Firefox can only make sure to get the same page send this POST form.
  Firefox doesn't know what it means shape data, so Firefox asks for confirmation before sending the form data so action can you take to repeat an action and buy another article or post a message once.
  One way to prevent this pop-up on the removal of the POST data is not to use the back button, but to open the links on a page that is requested from a server by sending a form with the date of the POST in a new tab (window) with a middle click or hold down the CTRL key and click the link.
  Then you can close the tab or window to go back.

  You need a module 3G Broadband?

  As far as I know that some of the Portege M700 series were equipped with the 3G module I think that it s of Novatel but I m not sure leave

  However, if you need a framework for the Toshiba notebook that would be consistent for sure, the best place for the purchase of these parts is your ASP.

  Guys could check what parts are compatible and could order from Toshiba if that would be really necessary
