[TYPO3-v4] DBAL compatible way of escaping strings for a like query

[Helmut Hummel]

Hi,

the DB-API for correctly escaping strings for a like query is a bit awkward:

$escapedSearchItem = '\'%' . $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->escapeStrForLike(
   $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->quoteStr($searchItem, 'pages'),
   'pages'
) . '%\'';

My question is: Is this OK this way for DBAL, despite "manually" adding 
enclosing quotes?

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Helmut
