Hi,

I tried this new feature in PostgreSQL. I found one bug.
Script UCS_to_8859.pl skips input lines which
1. code <0x80 or
2. ucs <0x100

I think second one is not good idea because some codes in ISO8859-2
have ucs <0x100 (e.g. 0xE9 - 0x00E9)

23 years agoMake PGLC_setlocale() static, and document that it can't be used safely

Make PGLC_setlocale() static, and document that it can't be used safely
for any other purpose than PGLC_localeconv()'s internal save/restore of
locale settings.  Fix cash.c to call PGLC_localeconv() rather than
making a direct call to localeconv() --- the old way, if PGLC_localeconv()
had already cached a locale result, it would be overwritten by the first
cash_in or cash_out operation, leading to wrong-locale results later.
Probably no demonstrable bug today, since we only appear to be looking
at the LC_MONETARY results which should be the same anyway, but definitely
a gotcha waiting to strike.
