JAVA MySql multiple word search
- by user1703849
i have a database in MySql that has a name column in it which contains several words(description). I am connected to database with java through eclipse. I have a search, that returns results if only name field contains one word.
id: name: info: type:
1 balloon big red balloon big
2 house expensive beautiful luxury
3 chicken wings deep fried wings tasty
these are just random words but as an example my search can only see ex. balloon and then show info,
but if i type chicken wings, it does nothing. so it possible somehow to search from columns with multiple words?
this is my search code below
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
class Search {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner inp``ut = new Scanner(System.in);
try {
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:mysql://example/mydb", "user", "password");
Statement stmt = (Statement) con.createStatement();
System.out.print("enter search: ");
String name = input.next();
String SQL = "SELECT * FROM menu where name LIKE '" + name + "'";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(SQL);
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println("Name: " +rs.getString("name"));
System.out.println("Description: " + rs.getString("info") );
System.out.println("Price: " + rs.getString("Price"));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("ERROR: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
