Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.4 (Build 201310111528) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_51 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.51-b03 In PL/SQL we can escpae special characters in LIKE statement with ESCAPE keyword IF test LIKE '%\_sample\_%' ESCAPE '\' But it breaks sql code syntax highlighting.
The SQL lexer treats the \ character as a valid escape. This in turn breaks syntax highlighting, as the final quoting sign is not recognised as a closing quote. This is a duplicate of bug 200479. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 200479 ***
