Cédric Damioli commented on JCR-3443: ------------------------------------- a) Do you suggest someting like "rep:normalize" ? b) I did not actually tried to implement a collation algorithm, which certainly depends on locales, but instead a normalization algorithm (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/) which do not depend on locales. I could have implement it using java.text.Normalizer.normalize(), followed by the removal of non ASCII-characters, but this is roughly equivalent to the more easier Unicode-to-ASCII method I found in the Lucene code. > Normalize String properties when ordering query results > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JCR-3443 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3443 > Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: jackrabbit-core, query > Reporter: Cédric Damioli > Attachments: normalize.patch > > > Properties containing non-ASCII characters are not well collated in query > results > There's only two allowed functions so far in XPath (fn:lower-case and > fn:upper-case).
