I presume that would be accomplished using the same sqlite3_create_collation() API that I'd use to create an entirely new one? The wrapper I'm using doesn't appear to expose that API (or I haven't stumbled across it yet). What effect does redefining the BINARY sequence have on numeric data in the tables? > > I presume using the collate clause is something on the order of: > > That is correct. I suspect I will be using the COLLATE clause. It's easier for me to have multiple copies of the creation SQL statement for the different backend platforms, isolating the "non-standard" SQL statements to that one place, than it is to have different operations for the different backends (i.e. "find" works one way for one DB, and another way for another).
