Search for Wild Card in SQL
2 answers
Probably not, I have some kind of edge case that I am not aware of with how text search is handled. I would do an experiment to see what it does if Name is null if I'm near a MySQL client right now.
I've seen some code that uses queries with "... where 1 = 1" just because it was easier to output a nonsensical where clause than to deal with cases where the where clause is missing from the generated queries. Or I used to be a meaningful condition that has been removed in some editions.
