Well, if someone wants to do the legwork to try it, that interface should work just about comparably to Spencer's package: I found that the easiest way to make it work is to use pg_mb2wchar to expand our internal encoding into an array of pg_wchar's and then apply the regex package to that form. So as long as sre can handle 4-byte wide chars it ought to more or less drop in. I've got a fair amount of cleanup to do on Spencer's package before I can even think of committing it (ANSIfy function headers, fix comment formatting so that pg_indent won't completely destroy 'em, etc). But I'll be glad to send the modified interface file (adt/regexp.c) to anyone who'd like to try getting it to work with sre. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
