Regular Expressions in DB2 SQL

Question

(Other than using a UDF) Any REGEXP-In-SQL support for DB2 9.7 ?

Answer 1

That works fine except for DB2 z/OS - in DB2 v10 z/OS you must use PASSING as follows

   with val as (
     select t.text
     from texts t
     where xmlcast(xmlquery('fn:matches($v,"^[A-Za-z 0-9]*$")'
                    PASSING t.text as "v" ) as integer) = 0
    )
    select * from val
