-- CHAR
--
-- Per SQL standard, CHAR means character(1), that is a varlena type
-- with a constraint restricting it to one character (not byte)
SELECT char 'c' = char 'c' AS true;
--
-- Build a table for testing
-- (This temporarily hides the table created in test_setup.sql)
--
CREATE TEMP TABLE CHAR_TBL(f1 char);
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('a');
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('A');
-- any of the following three input formats are acceptable
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('1');
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES (2);
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('3');
-- zero-length char
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('');
-- try char's of greater than 1 length
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('cd');
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('c ');
SELECT * FROM CHAR_TBL;
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 <> 'a';
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 = 'a';
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 < 'a';
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 <= 'a';
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 > 'a';
SELECT c.*
FROM CHAR_TBL c
WHERE c.f1 >= 'a';
DROP TABLE CHAR_TBL;
--
-- Now test longer arrays of char
--
-- This char_tbl was already created and filled in test_setup.sql.
-- Here we just try to insert bad values.
--
INSERT INTO CHAR_TBL (f1) VALUES ('abcde');
SELECT * FROM CHAR_TBL;
-- Also try it with non-error-throwing API
SELECT pg_input_is_valid('abcd ', 'char(4)');
SELECT pg_input_is_valid('abcde', 'char(4)');
SELECT * FROM pg_input_error_info('abcde', 'char(4)');
--
-- Also test "char", which is an ad-hoc one-byte type. It can only
-- really store ASCII characters, but we allow high-bit-set characters
-- to be accessed via bytea-like escapes.
