What is the answer to Filip's question? I didn't see an answer in the list archives. I've seen several copies of Joe
Conway'spg_strxfrm.c code on the web, and it always refers to the Warn_restart variable, which doesn't seem to exist in
the8.1.4 code that I'm using.
I am working with a database in UTF-8 encoding using "C" collation - but I'd occasionally like to ORDER BY columns
containingreal UTF-8 data.
Would the pg_strxfrm() function get used in a new operator class function? I'll read up on operator classes in
chapter32.14 of the docs, but if someone has a simple example, it might help other searchers of the archives.
Thanks,
Kevin Murphy
