as attache of this mail is patch (to the main tree) with to_char's
family functions. Contain: conversion from a datetype to formatted text: to_char( datetime, text) to_char( timestamp, text) to_char( int4, text) to_char( int8, text) to_char( float4, text) to_char( float8, text) to_char( numeric, text) vice versa: to_date ( text, text) to_datetime ( text, text) to_timestamp ( text, text) to_number ( text, text) (convert to numeric) PostgreSQL to_char is very compatible with Oracle's to_char(), but not total exactly (now). Small differentions are in number formating. It will fix in next to_char() version. ! If will this patch aplly to the main tree, must be delete the current to_char version in contrib (directory "dateformat" and note in contrib's README), this patch not erase it (sorry Bruce). The patch patching files: doc/src/sgml/func.sgml ^^^^^^^^ Hmm, I'm not sure if my English... :( Check it anyone (volunteer)? Thomas, it is right? SGML is not my primary lang and compile the current PG docs tree is very happy job (hard variables setting in docs/sgml/Makefile --> HSTYLE= /home/users/t/thomas/.... :-) What add any definition to global configure.in and set Makefiles in docs tree via ./configure? src/backend/utils/adt/Makefile src/backend/utils/adt/formatting.c src/include/catalog/pg_proc.h src/include/utils/formatting.h Karel Zak <zakkr@zf.jcu.cz> http://home.zf.jcu.cz/~zakkr/
