Hello,

I have a question about regexes and sqlite3. I am executing a certain line of code:

    >>> regex = 'NET | INCOME'
    >>> Table.objects.filter(name__iregex=regex).

When I have it print out the SQL sent, I get the following (this is a simplified, but equivalent version):

    SELECT *
    FROM "table"
    WHERE "table"."name"
    REGEXP '(?i)' || 'NET | INCOME'
    LIMIT 21

However if I execute that directly against the sqlite database i get the following error:

    sqlite3.OperationalError: no such function: REGEXP

I thought that maybe this magic was handled in python's sqlite3 module, but if i do it there i get the same error. So basically my question is, can anyone tell me where this is transformed into regular sql? it obviously happens somehwere (I get no error when running in django after all), but I can't for the life of me figure out where.

Thanks a lot!

Thomas

PS: I have tried using the shell_plus --print-sql extension, but that shows me the same thing.

PPS: Obviously not django-related, but if anyone knows how to get a sqlite database to log all queries issued against it, that would also obviously solve this issue.
