This came up on irc: postgres=# show lc_ctype; lc_ctype ------------- fr_FR.UTF-8
postgres=# show server_encoding; server_encoding ----------------- UTF8 (1 row) postgres=# select E'\303\201' ILIKE E'\303\241'; ?column? ---------- t (1 row) postgres=# select E'\303\201' ~* E'\303\241'; ?column? ---------- f (1 row) Obviously, this happens because the locale support functions in backend/regex/regc_locale.c are (presumably intentionally) crippled so as not to support non-ascii chars, despite all the code there using wide chars for everything otherwise. Why is this? It does not appear to be a documented restriction. -- Andrew (irc:RhodiumToad) -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
