[PATCHES] Again!! locale per column for postgreSQL
Qustion: is this approach is suitable for solving the need for locale per column in PostgreSQL ? There is a function I attached to this mail. this function is similar to nls_sort. this function is written by Karel Zak, I dont know if he had tried to submit this code or not. In this distribution you will find file nls_string.c. It contains thedefinition of function nls_string(text, text) which takes a stringparameter and a locale name and returns string describing the ordering.So you can run select * from table order by nls_string(name, 'en_US.UTF-8')or select * from table order by nls_string(name, 'cs_CZ.UTF-8')or select * from table order by nls_string(name, 'C')M. taghizade Do you Yahoo!?

I think good place for this function is in the PG's contrib tree. The final solution for main tree have to be something different. I agree with you that this function can be useful for multi-language databases.
