How do I create an “AND” filter to retrieve objects in Django? e.g I would like to retrieve a row which has a combination of two words in a single field.
For example the following SQL query does exactly that when I run it on mysql database:
SELECT * FROM myapp_question WHERE ((question LIKE '%software%') AND (question LIKE '%java%'))
How do you accomplish this in Django using filters?

(update: this answer will not work anymore and give the syntax error keyword argument repeated
)
mymodel.objects.filter(first_name__icontains="Foo", first_name__icontains="Bar")
update: Long time since I wrote this answer and done some django, but I am sure to this days the best approach is to use the Q object method like David Berger shows here: How do I use AND in a Django filter?
