https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/1353/taskquery-for-description-search<p>Hi all,</p> <p>Is that possible to make a search for tasks by their description? A search by name is possible through:</p> <pre><code>TaskQuery stringFieldQuery = TaskQuery.create(); stringFieldQuery.where().name().isLike("search by name"); </code></pre> <p>I guessed it was the same for the description but it seems to be unpossible to do such a TaskQuery for the description because the following code returns an <em>IColumnFilterQuery</em> and not an <em>IStringColumnFilterQuery</em> as for the name():</p> <pre><code>stringFieldQuery.where().description() // There is no isLike("...") method then. </code></pre> <p>Is there another possibility with the TaskQuery?</p> <p>Thanks in advance</p> <p>Emmanuel</p>enTue, 09 Jun 2015 15:13:23 -0400https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/1353/taskquery-for-description-search/1354<p>No, I think you can not do that with the current TaskQuery-API. This is a bug in the API definition. The difference is that the task name is stored as VARCHAR whereas the task description is a TEXT field depending on the DB system. </p> <p>The same you will encounter in the CaseQuery-API. </p> <p>Thanks for your post</p> <p>Bruno</p>Bruno BütlerTue, 09 Jun 2015 15:13:23 -0400https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/1353/taskquery-for-description-search/1354
