Hello all,
I have a function (urlhost) which finds the 'host' portion of a URL. In the case of
http://www.foobar.com/really/long/path/to/a/fileit returns "www.foobar.com".
I also have a function (urltld) which returns the TLD of a URL. In the case of
http://www.foobar.com/really/long/path/to/a/fileit returns ".com" (the leading dot is OK).
urltld uses urlhost to do it's job (how should be apparent).
Now the question: is there a single index I can create that will be used when my WHERE clause contains either urlhost
orurltld? I could create two functional indexes, but that seems a bit silly to me.
Any thoughts?
