How to implement 'search' similar to Google
I am using Oracle9iR2 / JDBC. I need to implement a search facility similar to google.com on the database I have. There are 20 tables in the database and around 30000 records in total. I have to search only in VARCHAR2 and CLOB fields. Each table has an ID (PK) column. How to write a single query that search these tables for given string.
Here is a sample for quick understanding... ................................................................... CREATE TABLE A (ID NUMBER, TITLE VARCHAR2(200), DESCRIPTION CLOB); CREATE TABLE B (ID NUMBER, TITLE VARCHAR2(200), DESCRIPTION CLOB, NOTES VARCHAR2(500)); INSERT INTO A VALUES(101, 'Best online shop', 'Amazon.com is one of the best online book store'); INSERT INTO A VALUES(102, 'Movie of the week', 'Beautiful Mind featuring...'); INSERT INTO B VALUES(201, 'Page available', 'The page is currently unavailable', 'no notes'); INSERT INTO B VALUES(202, 'Address bar', 'type the page address in the Address bar', 'store'); Here is what I am trying... (Please correct) .................................................................... SELECT ID, TEXT FROM (SELECT ID, (TITLE || ' ' || DESCRIPTION) TEXT FROM A WHERE UPPER(TITLE) LIKE UPPER('%store%') OR UPPER(DESCRIPTION) LIKE UPPER('%store%') ) UNION SELECT ID, TEXT FROM (SELECT ID, (TITLE || ' ' || DESCRIPTION || ' ' || NOTES) TEXT FROM B WHERE UPPER(TITLE) LIKE UPPER('%store%') OR UPPER(DESCRIPTION) LIKE UPPER('%store%') OR UPPER(NOTES) LIKE UPPER('%store%') ) When I run the individual part of above query it runs fine but after UNION it gives SELECT ID, TEXT * ERROR at line 1: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB How to solve the problem. ****OR*** Please suggest RIGHT way of doing the search (similar to google). Thanks |
