[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Created: (HHH-3464) SimpleExpression.ignoreCase uses SQL server lowercase function for left part and JAVA lowercase function for right part of expression

SimpleExpression.ignoreCase uses SQL server lowercase function for left part and JAVA lowercase function for right part of expression ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3464 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3464 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Components: query-criteria Affects Versions: 3.2.6 Environment: tried with PostgreSQL Reporter: Vitaliy Tymchyshyn Priority: Minor When using SimpleExpression.ignoreCase (e.g. Restrictions.eq().ignoreCase, hibernate makes 'lower(field)=?' SQL expression, passing lowercased strings to '?' parameter. This may produce unpredictable results depending on Database server lower implementation and current JAVA locale (see JDK javadoc). For example, I've tried with '\u0130' character as in JDK JavaDoc. Postgresql produces: unhappy=> select lower('İ'); lower ------- i̇ (1 row) unhappy=> select char_length(lower('İ')); char_length ------------- 2 (1 row) While Java with default locale produces single-character 'i̇'. Of course the restriction will not work - it can not find 'İ' in database. I'd recommend to use 'lower(field)=lower(?)' to use same lower casing function for both parts of expression. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
