Search all fields in an Object using SOQL

Does anyone know how to search all fields in an Object for a given String using SOQL? I know we can do it in SOSL using IN ALL FIELDS, but since I am doing a search only on one object, was wondering if there is a way to do it via SOQL?

 

Appreciate your response.

 

Thanks.

Per my understanding only way to do this is describing all fields of the object, and creating dynamic query appending appropriate clause operator according to the type of field. Like if the field is a text field then operator in where clause will be "like" etc..
