There's no problem with the operator class.
So going back to my original index statement: I execute:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX tbl_security_fullname_key
ON tbl_security
USING btree
(get_securityname_4idx(s_umbname, s_name, s_classname, id))
pgAdmin III generates:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX tbl_security_fullname_key
ON public.tbl_security
USING btree
(public.get_securityname_4idx(s_umbname::citext, s_name::citext,
s_classname::citext, id::int4) citext_ops);
The select pg_get_indexdef(OID_of_the_Index) produces the exact definition that
I used to create it (but without the line feeds):
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX tbl_security_fullname_key ON tbl_security USING btree
(get_securityname_4idx(s_umbname, s_name, s_classname, id))
Basically what pgAdmin III should generate for 7.3.3 is:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX tbl_security_fullname_key
ON public.tbl_security
USING btree
(public.get_securityname_4idx(s_umbname, s_name, s_classname, id)
citext_ops);
That is it needs to drop the pg_type information on the column parameters to
the function, which are in this case ::citext ... and ::int4
