如何使用column（）。search（）数据表多个值

Question

I am using below syntax:

var array = ["ABC DEF","Test"];

table.columns( 1 ).search(new RegExp(array.join("|"), "i",true, false)).draw();

But it is not working. IT always give empty result

I tried

new RegExp("("+array.join("|")+")")

or

var pattern = new RegExp("\\b(?:" + array.join("|") + ")\\b", "i");

This is what it actually looks in console

  /\b(?:ABC DEF|Test)\b/i

but empty output always

Is there any issue in syntax? Thanks

I just tried this and it is working

table.columns( 1 ).search(array.join('|'), true, false, true).draw();

I am putting it answer for reference.
