Andrus Adamchik commented on CAY-1210:
--------------------------------------
Would be nice if we could test this somehow. Don't know how we can create a
table with the right collation with unit test means that we have, but maybe at
least create a regression test - running queries with alternative syntax
without checking the results? Otherwise I think the patch can be applied.

> When performing a case insensitive search Cayenne spits out SQL which looks
> like this
> SELECT .... WHERE upper(name) LIKE upper("fred")
> This prevents any index being used for the search. Since mysql already
> performed case insensitive searches on text fields we need to suppress the
> 'upper' functions being used in these situations. All searches on these
> fields are already case insensitive.
