unable to use function MATCH in the requested context SQLite?

filipdns

Hello,

Using local database on my project, I need to make search on it but with my table named "remainPartList_log" and column named "part" and the value inserted in it "PartTest1" when I using the query:

SELECT * FROM remainPartList_log WHERE part match 'PartTest1'

I receive the error:
unable to use function MATCH in the requested context: SELECT * FROM remainPartList_log WHERE part MATCH 'PartTest1'

but the query:

SELECT * FROM remainPartList_log WHERE part ='PartTest1' is working fine and return the correct row...

Could you help me please?

Kind regards

Philippe

MATCH is only valid for virtual FTS tables. You need to use LIKE in regular tables.

? i.e. MATCH is only for searching in Full Text Search tables. If yours is just a regular table, you must use LIKE. MATCH is against an index of words which is only available for FTS tables.

@JonB Hello,

Yes I just found what you say and solve with:

SELECT * FROM remainPartList_log WHERE part LIKE '%art%'

thank you very much
