Description

Does ObjectBox have the equivalent of the SQL LIKE keyword?

If it does not, I would like to add that as a feature request.

This was my solution for the problem in the meantime. If there is a better way to do this, I would like to know. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51846019/does-objectbox-have-a-sql-like-keyword-equivalent

Thanks,
