I've found that statement: SELECT * FROM os WHERE 'FreeBSD 4.7-RC' LIKE string_id; (one of string_id's is 'FreeBSD 4.7%')
doesn't work. No error is reported. It does work in Oracle, so I think it's a standard SQL query. Table is defined as: host=> \d os Table "os" Column | Type | Modifiers -----------+-----------------------+----------------------------------------------- id | integer | not null default nextval('"os_id_seq"'::text) name | character varying(32) | major | integer | minor | integer | subrev | character(16) | string_id | character(32) | Unique keys: os_id_key PostgreSQL version is 7.3.1 Is it non-implemented by design, or maybe I've overlooked something?
