The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5743 Logged by: Vlad Romascanu Email address: vromasc...@accurev.com PostgreSQL version: 8.4.3 Operating system: Windows, Linux Description: Regexp engine fails to case-insensitively match multi-byte codepoints Details:
Already reported in 2006 but seems to have fallen through the cracks (I can find no followup.) Problem still exists in v8.4.3. Problem still appears to be pg_wc_tolower downcasting to char before calling tolower() (instead of calling towlower().) This one of several inconsistencies unfortunately still present in case-insensitive regexp vs. LOWER(str) [str_lower] treatment (including char to wchar conversion using MultiByteToWideChar/mbstowcs vs. char2wchar, or towlower vs. pg_wc_tolower.) Current workaround is to use LOWER(str) ~ LOWER('regexp'). -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
