Hello, In a table, I have:
create table foo( ..., id_alpha3 character(3) NOT NULL CHECK (character_length(trim(both ' ' from id_alpha3)) = 3), ... ); When I do a pg_dump, pg_dump translates it to: CREATE TABLE foo ( ... id_alpha3 character(3) NOT NULL, ... CONSTRAINT country_id_alpha3 CHECK ((character_length(btrim((id_alpha3)::text, ' '::text)) = 3)), ); I.e., use of SQL:1999 standard "TRIM(BOTH somechar FROM ...)" is changed into use of PostgreSQL-specific BTRIM(). As PostgreSQL seems to strive to be standard compliant, I consider the above a (minor) bug. -- Greetings from Troels Arvin, Copenhagen, Denmark ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
