Per this discussion, here's a patch to implement both levenshtein() and
metaphone() in a contrib. There seem to be a fair number of different
approaches to both of these algorithms. I used the simplest case for
levenshtein which has a cost  of 1 for any character insertion, deletion, or
substitution. For metaphone, I adapted the same code from CPAN that the PHP
folks did.

A couple of questions:
1. Does it make sense to fold the soundex contrib together with this one?

2. I was debating trying to add multibyte support to levenshtein (it would
make no sense at all for metaphone), but a quick search through the contrib
directory found no hits on the word MULTIBYTE. Should worry about adding
multibyte support to levenshtein()?

23 years agoAttached is a patch that does the following:
Bruce Momjian [Sat, 4 Aug 2001 19:32:04 +0000 (19:32 +0000)]
Attached is a patch that does the following:

1) improves performance of commit/rollback by reducing number of round
trips to the server
2) uses 7.1 functionality for setting the transaction isolation level
3) backs out a patch from 11 days ago because that code failed to
compile under jdk1.1

Details:

1)  The old code was doing the following for each commit:
   commit
   begin
   set transaction isolation level xxx
thus a call to commit was performing three round trips to the database.
  The new code does this in one round trip as:
   commit; begin; set transaction isolation level xxx

In a simple test program that performs 1000 transactions (where each
transaction does one simple select inside that transaction) has the
following before and after timings:

Client and Server on same machine

old         new
---         ---
1.877sec    1.405sec   25.1% improvement

Client and Server on different machines
old         new
---         ---
4.184sec    2.927sec   34.3% improvement

(all timings are an average of four different runs)

2)  The driver was using 'set transaction isolation level xxx' at the
begining of each transaction, instead of using the new 7.1 syntax of
'set session characteristics as transaction isolation level xxx' which
only needs to be done once instead of for each transaction.  This is
done conditionally (i.e. if server is 7.0 or older do the old behaviour,
else do the new behaviour) to not break backward compatibility.  This
also required the movement of some code to check/test database version
numbers from the DatabaseMetaData object to the Connection object.

3) Finally while testing, I discovered that the code that was checked in
  11 days ago actually didn't compile.  The code in the patch for
Connection.setCatalog() used Properties.setProperty() which only exists
in JDK1.2 or higher.  Thus compiling the JDBC1 driver failed as this
method doesn't exist.  Thus I backed out that patch.

The fti.pl supplied with the fulltextindex module generate ALL possible
substrings of two characters or greater, and is case-sensitive.

This patch makes it work correctly.  It generates only the suffixes of each
word, plus lowercases them - as specified by the README file.

This brings it into line with the fti.c function, makes it case-insensitive
properly, removes the problem with duplicate rows being returned from an fti
search and greatly reduces the size of the generated index table.
