Just a quick question.
Am I mistaken, or was multi-language support for
upper(), lower() and friends recently added to 7.5?
I could have sworn I saw mention of this on hackers,
but, the TODO is not marked as done.
Thanks,
Ara Anjargolian

I fixed upper/lower so that they would work on multi-byte character set
encodings, given that the platform supports the <wctype.h> functions
towupper, towlower, etc. This means they can work on Unicode (UTF-8)
data. However, this doesn't do anything to improve the fundamental
issue that we are dependent on the C library's API for locale-specific
behavior, and that that API does *not* easily support dealing with
multiple locales at once. See the nearby "unicode and sorting" thread.

OK, I marked the item as done.

Hi,
I am using PostgreSQL 7.4, but I did have the same problem with the
last version.
I indexed the column word (defined as varchar(64)) using lower(word).
If I use the following query, everything is fine, the index is used and
the query is executed very quickly:
select * from token where lower(word) = 'saxophone';

Dear Ophidians,
I'm attempting to create an SSL secured, AJAX chat server. I'm moving
on the hypothesis that I'll need to hang an XMLHttpRequest response
blocking on the server until a new message is ready to be dispatched.
This means that my server must be able to handle many open SSL sockets
in separate threads.
I started with Twisted, but, having looked as far as I can see, SSL is
either not implemented, or not documented for that...

Hello. I have a doubt about multi-threading, if it is or not the best way to
achieve the following:
I have a server application that listens a port through a socket.
A client will send messages to that application (many messages).
Because the amount of messages is huge, the server application should only
send each received message to another process (a thread?) that manages the
message, and then go with the next message.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
