Hi, here are some other trigger cases.
CREATE DATABASE dbicu3 LOCALE_PROVIDER icu LOCALE 'en_US.UTF-8'
ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kf-upper-kn-true' TEMPLATE 'template0';
CREATE DATABASE dbicu4 LOCALE_PROVIDER icu LOCALE 'en_US.UTF-8'
ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kn-true' TEMPLATE 'template0';
--mistake
CREATE DATABASE dbicu5 LOCALE_PROVIDER icu LOCALE 'en_US.UTF-8'
ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kr-upper' TEMPLATE 'template0';
CREATE DATABASE dbicu6 LOCALE_PROVIDER icu LOCALE 'en_US.UTF-8'
ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kf-upper' TEMPLATE 'template0';
--same script applies to dbicu3, dbicu4, dbicu5, dbicu6.
begin;
CREATE COLLATION upperfirst (provider = icu, locale = 'en-u-kf-upper');
CREATE TABLE icu(def text, en text COLLATE "en_US", upfirst text COLLATE
upperfirst, test_kr text);
INSERT INTO icu VALUES ('a', 'a', 'a', '1 a'), ('b','b','b', 'A 11'),
('A','A','A','A 19'), ('B','B','B', '8 p');
INSERT INTO icu VALUES ('a', 'a', 'a', 'a 7'),('a', 'a', 'a', 'a 117');
INSERT INTO icu VALUES ('a', 'a', 'a', 'a 70'), ('a', 'a', 'a', 'A 70');
INSERT INTO icu VALUES ('a', 'a', 'a', 'Π1');

- dbicu3, ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kf-upper-kn-true' seems
'kf-upper' not grouped strings beginning with character 'A' together?
- dbicu4, ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kn-true' since upper/lower not
explicitly mentioned, and since the collation is deterministic, so
character 'A' should be grouped together first then do the numeric value
comparison.
- dbicu6, ICU_LOCALE 'en-u-kr-latn-digit-kf-upper' , from the
result, *kr-latn-digit
*is working as intended. But *kf-upper *seems not working.
maybe this link(
https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-collation.html#314-case-parameters
) can help.
Can I specify as many key-value settings options (
https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-collation.html#table-collation-settings)
as I want in ICU_LOCALE while I create a new database?
