Name

match() — Implement the MATCH operator

Common Usage

match( pattern, string )

Description

The match() function implements the matching algorithm used by the SQL expression string MATCH pattern, and is normally not called directly by user-provided SQL expressions. A default implementation of this function does not exist. To use the MATCH operator, an application-defined function must be registered.

Note that the order of the parameters differs between the MATCH expression and the match() function.
