SQLite allows multiple registrations of the same function if they take different number of arguments. Consequently the SQLite core implements upper/lower taking one arg and the ICU extension implements upper/lower taking two args with the second arg being the locale. Why don't you write an extension that does the mapping into the Win32 api and then contribute it - http://sqlite.org/contrib - if it is small and works well then it could become part of the core for Windows. > (2) I'm under the impression, that the problematic cases ICU in SQLite does a lot more than just locale specific upper/lower casing. It also does locale specific sorting (which can't be done with a trivial lookup table) and LIKE/regular expressions.
