I did the same test and it worked for me as well.
Thanx Much,

I just did a quick test on Cayenne 3.1 and PG 9.1. And all I had to do is to
map the DbAttribute type as OTHER instead of VARCHAR and map ObjAttribute as
java.lang.String. This did it.
So after all PG's turned out to be one of the few drivers that actually handles type
"OTHER" correctly, and there's no need for hacks and fancy workarounds.

I ran a couple of tests where the column is CITEXT and is indexed. The actual value in the database is
"TTI" and the row was found when the parameter was "TTI" but not "tti". Is
there anything special I need to do in preparing the SelectQuery?
Here is the (so far) complete Main pretty much straight out of the tutorial:
ServerRuntime cayenneRuntime = new ServerRuntime("cayenne-project.xml");
ObjectContext context = cayenneRuntime.getContext();
Expression qual = Expression
.fromString("shortvn = $svn");
SelectQuery proto = new SelectQuery(Vendors.class, qual);
proto.setDistinct(true);
Map params1 = new HashMap();
params1.put("svn", "TTI");
SelectQuery query1 = proto.queryWithParameters(params1);
List performQuery = context.performQuery(query1);
List<Vendors> vendors1 = performQuery;
System.out.println("Vendors = " + vendors1.size());
vendors1.size is 1 when the param is uppercase, 0 when lower.
Thanx,

Yeah.. And I guess we may need to add CITEXT to Cayenne PG adapter so that it
is reverse engineered as VARCHAR or CLOB or something.

Using 3.1B1. But your second question made me look in Modeler and all of the "special" PG

Thanx...

So what version of Cayenne are you using (I'd recommend 3.1B1)?
Also what type do you select for CTEXT columns in Cayenne model? Should be
something like VARCHAR?

Thanx for the reply. The problem I seem to be having is that the
schema-generated persistent classes have errors whenever one of the CITEXT
attributes is mentioned. Following is a sample of the code which is causing
errors.
public void setInvoicenbr($importUtils.formatJavaType(${attr.Type}) invoicenbr)
{
writeProperty(INVOICENBR_PROPERTY, invoicenbr);
}
public $importUtils.formatJavaType(${attr.Type}) getInvoicenbr() {
return
($importUtils.formatJavaType(${attr.Type}))readProperty(INVOICENBR_PROPERTY);
}
The errors are the same for each occurrence of the CITEXT data type.
Description Resource Path Location Type
$ cannot be resolved to a variable _Lineitems.java
/oespg/src/main/java/org/ttna/oespg/persistent/auto line 80 Java Problem
If this is not helpful, let me know and I'll include schema and more code.
Thanx,

I don't have much recent firsthand PG experience, but reading citext docs, it
looks like exactly what you need.
So when comparisons are done in SQL it should work (at least it works for me on MySQL
with similar DB-side settings). On the other hand if you are using in-memory filtering
with expressions it won't work, as in-memory comparisons are simple Java
"equal".
Finally there is a 'likeIgnoreCase' expression that works consistently
in-memory and in DB (regardless of DB-side case sensitivity), as the name
implies.

I'm converting an MS Access ADP project to Java/Postgresql/Cayenne (my first
and mostly for the fun of it) and am trying to figure out how to best match the
case insensitive string usage that is in SQL Server. I created the PG database
using CITEXT only where actually necessary but it doesn't seem to be recognized
in Cayenne. It appears that I need to replace all CITEXT columns with TEXT and
handle case insensitive comparisons manually. I've found a couple of threads
that mention this but none had any real advice on how best to do it in a
Cayenne environment. Lower() is frequently mentioned as the usual approach but
before I go down that path too far I'd appreciate a little feedback from more
experienced Cayenne users.
Thanx Much,
Garth
