SQLite accent-insensitive search

Question

Is there any way to do an accent-insensitive LIKE query in SQLite? For example, this query:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE name LIKE "Andre%"

would return:

André the Giant
Andre Agassi
etc.

I'm using Qt with QSqlDatabase if it makes any difference.

Answer 1

Set up a collation using sqlite3_create_collation and then use it like this:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE name LIKE "Andre%" COLLATE NOACCENTS
