Until now, these functions have only supported encoding conversions using lookup tables, which is fine as long as there's not too many code points to convert. However, GB18030 expects all 1.1 million Unicode code points to be convertible, which would require a ridiculously-sized lookup table. Fortunately, a large fraction of those conversions can be expressed through arithmetic, ie the conversions are one-to-one in certain defined ranges. To support that, provide a callback function that is used after consulting the lookup tables. (This patch doesn't actually change anything about the GB18030 conversion behavior, just provide infrastructure for fixing it.) Since this requires changing the APIs of UtfToLocal/LocalToUtf anyway, take the opportunity to rearrange their argument lists into what seems to me a saner order. And beautify the call sites by using lengthof() instead of error-prone sizeof() arithmetic. In passing, also mark all the lookup tables used by these calls "const". This moves an impressive amount of stuff into the text segment, at least on my machine, and is safer anyhow.
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
