Hello Torque Users/Developers,
Greetings!
I have a workable system with MySQL 4.1 as a database and using Torque
3.2. Everything works fine there. I am trying to port the system to a
Sybase 12.5 database.
In one of my module I have a query formed as shown below:
SELECT * FRM CSFieldRegistry
WHERE CSFieldRegistry.Name LIKE 'CSCLIENT\_%'
AND CSFieldRegistry.CustomField=1
AND CSFieldRegistry.Active=1
AND CSFieldRegistry.Editable=1
AND
Please observe the LIKE clause in the above query. It works fine on
MySQL as MySQL knows that a backslash (\) is an escape sequence for the
underscore (_)
But the query fails on Sybase as Sybase expects the query in the
following form.
SELECT * FRM CSFieldRegistry
WHERE CSFieldRegistry.Name LIKE 'CSCLIENT\_%' escape '\'
AND CSFieldRegistry.CustomField=1
AND CSFieldRegistry.Active=1
AND CSFieldRegistry.Editable=1
AND
Please observe the LIKE clause. It needs to suffix it with an escape '\'
keyword.
It becomes a little difficult to have a approach which will work on both
the databases. Sybase expects ESCAPE and MySQL works fine with a
backslash '\.'
Sybase will not treat '\' as a default escape sequence whereas MySQL
will.
It would be of great help if you could guide me with a
resolution/approach which will make the query work on both the databases
(MySQL and Sybase)
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Umesh
