Aren't you looking for standard_conforming_strings? backslash_quote is something else entirely, and doesn't actually do anything at all when backslash escaping is disabled. > Two questions: > 1.

No. standard_conforming_strings has nothing to do with the behavior of LIKE (nor does backslash_quote). They just control the initial parsing of SQL string literals. > 2.

It looks like a perfectly good match to me. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
