I'm trying to implement a basic 'search' system across multiple entities. I know that there is no like operator support in GQL, but that leaves with the problem of an efficient, straightforward way of performing searches across my entities.

What is the idiomatic way of performing such searches in Google App Engine/Java ?

Maybe you are looking for the Datastore Java API?

Sorry, read it already. But maybe I missed the part about 'full-text searches'. Is there such an entry?

Ok, hadn't understood that you needed full-text searching. Have you looked at http://github.com/ultrasaurus/full-text-search-appengine? Not sure if you were looking at Rails for your framework but even so the approach used here may be of some help in your intended framework

Actually I need this to work with GAE/Java. In SQL it's pretty simple.
