"Quoting an identifier also makes it case-sensitive, whereas unquoted names are always folded to lower case. For
example,the identifiers FOO, foo, and "foo" are considered the same by PostgreSQL, but "Foo" and "FOO" are different
fromthese three and each other. (The folding of unquoted names to lower case in PostgreSQL is incompatible with the SQL
standard,which says that unquoted names should be folded to upper case. Thus, foo should be equivalent to "FOO" not
"foo"according to the standard. If you want to write portable applications you are advised to always quote a particular
nameor never quote it.)"
There is no parameter to set. If you want upper case names then you need to quote them:
test[5432]=# create table FOLD_LOWERCASE ();
CREATE TABLE
test[5432]=# create table "QUOTE_UPPERCASE" ();
CREATE TABLE
test[5432]=# \d fold_lowercase
Table "public.fold_lowercase"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+------+-----------
test[5432]=# \d FOLD_LOWERCASE
Table "public.fold_lowercase"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+------+-----------
test[5432]=# \d QUOTE_UPPERCASE
Did not find any relation named "QUOTE_UPPERCASE".
test[5432]=# \d quote_uppercase
Did not find any relation named "quote_uppercase".
test[5432]=# \d "QUOTE_UPPERCASE"
Table "public.QUOTE_UPPERCASE"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+------+-----------
The above also shows what happens when you quote, you are committed
to that case.
If you still want to do this then:
test[5432]=# ALTER table fold_lowercase rename to "MAKE_UPPERCASE";
ALTER TABLE
test[5432]=# \d "MAKE_UPPERCASE"
Table "public.MAKE_UPPERCASE"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+------+-----------
