Add new Wildcard section in Query
---------------------------------

                 Key: CMIS-729
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/CMIS-729
             Project: OASIS Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Domain Model
    Affects Versions: V1.1
            Reporter: Jane Doong
            Priority: Minor


Is it time to revisit the wildcard support in Query V1.1, for both LIKE predicate and CONTAINS predicate?

The Query section in the V1.0 spec does not describe the wildcard support.  It only hinted at the support in the 2.1.12.3 Escaping section, that % and _ need to be escaped.

And there is no mention of the wildcard support in text search CONTAINS.  This may be a source of confusion because some databases use % and _, while others use * and ? for text search wildcards.

We should consider adding a new wildcard section, to clarify our wildcard characters.  Here is an example.  We can modify the wording if we decide to use % and _ for both LIKE and CONTAINS.  However, if we decide to use * and ? for text search, then we also need to open another CMIS Jira issue to update the Escaping section.
