Hello!
There is a database in KOI8-R encoding. And we have a client who is
querying the database:
set client_encoding TO 'ALT'
and then he write some data into the database.
I have a problem with some symbols which exists in ALT encoding and
which are absent in KOI8-R encoding. As result, during inserting strings
with such symbols postgresql returns an error, for example:
ERROR: character 0xfc of encoding "ALT" has no equivalent in "MULE_INTERNAL"
I've decided to write my own converter, so here is my code:
[code]
#include <postgres.h>
#include <fmgr.h>
#ifdef PG_MODULE_MAGIC
PG_MODULE_MAGIC;
#endif
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(fix_alt_to_koi8r);
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(fix_koi8r_to_alt);

I has copied this library into $libdir/funcs and I was trying to install
the new converter instead of the old one, in two directions alt->koi8
and koi8->alt:
[code]
db_server=# CREATE FUNCTION
fix_koi8r_to_alt(integer,integer,cstring,internal,integer) RETURNS integer AS
'$libdir/funcs/fix_conv.so','fix_koi8r_to_alt' LANGUAGE C STRICT;
CREATE FUNCTION
db_server=# CREATE FUNCTION
fix_alt_to_koi8r(integer,integer,cstring,internal,integer) RETURNS integer AS
'$libdir/funcs/fix_conv.so','fix_alt_to_koi8r' LANGUAGE C STRICT;
CREATE FUNCTION
db_server=# CREATE DEFAULT CONVERSION koi2alt FOR 'KOI8' TO 'ALT' FROM
fix_koi8r_to_alt;
CREATE CONVERSION
db_server=# CREATE DEFAULT CONVERSION alt2koi FOR 'ALT' TO 'KOI8' FROM
fix_alt_to_koi8r;
CREATE CONVERSION
db_server=# set client_encoding to 'alt';
[/code]
I thought, that was all, but it was not. During the insert of 'bad' symbol in
the test table i had the same error:
ERROR: character 0xfc of encoding "ALT" has no equivalent in "MULE_INTERNAL"
I think that my conversion functions are not used. I saw in table pg_conversion:
conname | connamespace | conowner | conforencoding |
contoencoding | conproc | condefault
koi8_r_to_windows_866 | *11* | *1* |
*21* | *23* | koi8r_to_alt | t
koi2alt | *2200* | *1* |
*21* | *23* | fix_koi8r_to_alt | t
windows_866_to_koi8_r *11* | *1* |
*23* | *21* | alt_to_koi8r | t
alt2koi | *2200* | *1* |
*23* | *21* | fix_alt_to_koi8r | t
and deleted two standard conversion functions:
[code]
db_server=# DROP CONVERSION koi8_r_to_windows_866;
DROP CONVERSION
db_server=# DROP CONVERSION windows_866_to_koi8_r;
DROP CONVERSION
[/code]
leaving only my own conversion functions.After this, when I'm trying to set the
client encoding to ALT I got an error:
db_server=# set client_encoding to 'alt';
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.

Is anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.
