Re: ts_headline - Mailing list pgsql-general

I just spotted the difference between your test and mine.

My query says:

select ts_headline(abstract,to_tsquery('english','database'),'minWords = 99,
maxWords = 999') from document where id=21;

where your equivalent does not include the 'english' arg.

If I take out the 'english' from this query, I get the same result as you.

However, the following returns zero rows:

select title,author,ts_headline(abstract,to_tsquery('database') from document
where clob @@ to_tsquery('database')

It gets more interesting:

select title,author,ts_headline(abstract,to_tsquery('database') from document
where clob @@ to_tsquery('english','database')

returns the "correct" result - one row with the expected headline.

select title,author,ts_headline(abstract,to_tsquery('english','thesaurus')
from document where clob @@ to_tsquery('english','thesaurus')

also returns the "correct" result.

I suggest that the above indicates a bug somewhere.

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen Davies
