Thanks for instructions. It does work.

 

Is there a way to use created case insensitive collation as database wide 
default? It would be easier for me not to specify collation for each and every 
index definition.

 

Thanks.

1. Register the WIN1254_UNICODE collation (it is defined in fbintl.conf, 
but not included by default in Firebird):

create collation WIN1254_UNICODE for win1254

2. Derive a case insensitive collation from WIN1254_UNICODE:

create collation win1254_ci for win1254 from win1254_unicode case 
insensitive

3. Create table

create table win1254test (
stringkey varchar(30) character set win1254 primary key collate 
win1254_ci
)

4. Test it:

INSERT INTO win1254test(stringkey) VALUES('EK'); -- succeeds
INSERT INTO win1254test(stringkey) VALUES('ek'); -- fails
INSERT INTO win1254test(stringkey) VALUES('Ek'); -- fails
INSERT INTO win1254test(stringkey) VALUES('eK'); -- fails

I hope this helps,
Mark
