Julian Hyde commented on PHOENIX-3046: -------------------------------------- According to the standard, {{LIKE}} and {{NOT LIKE}} will return {{UNKNOWN}} (aka boolean NULL) when applied to a null value. Pretty much all of SQL's standard operators use 3-value logic. This means that {{c NOT LIKE pattern}} is always the same as {{NOT (c LIKE pattern)}}, which is good. > `NOT LIKE '%'` unexpectedly returns results > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-3046 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-3046 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 4.7.0 > Reporter: Kevin Liew > Assignee: Kevin Liew > Priority: Minor > Labels: like, like-predicate, phoenix, regex, wildcard, wildcards > Fix For: 4.9.0, 4.8.1 > > > The following returns all rows in the table when it should return no rows: > {code}select * from emp where first_name not like '%'{code} > The following returns no rows as expected: > {code}select * from emp where first_name not like '%%'{code} > first_name is a VARCHAR column -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
