Re: [SQL] UNICODE and PL/PGSQL
Yes, I tried and it didn't work. PostgreSQL surely makes something of it, but not the right characters. Unless Markus can make his idea using "decode" work, this might be something pl/pgsql cannot do. >>> Richard Huxton 2006-11-27 17:34 >>> Bart Degryse wrote: > As the manual says : Character with the given ASCII code > I need characters outside the ASCII range.

Basically, I agree with your viewpoint on developer's permissions, but any annoyance can be fixed with a large enough paycheck... >>> Markus Schaber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2006-11-27 17:34 >>> Hi, Bart, Bart Degryse wrote: > I haven't got enough permissions to install new programs. Big brother... ;-) A developer doesn't get the permissions to use the tools he need for his work? Developers absolutely _must_ have root / admin permissions on their own workstations, that's a prerequirement for them to fulfil their job. Time to search a new employer, honest! > I get the error in a plpgsql function Ah, I just saw that the "decode" function returns bytea, not text. I'll need a further look into this...
