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!
