CREATE 
CONVERSION(7) SQL Commands CREATE CONVERSION(7) NAME
CREATE CONVERSION - define a new encoding conversion SYNOPSIS
CREATE [ DEFAULT ] CONVERSION name FOR source_encoding TO dest_encoding FROM funcname DESCRIPTION
CREATE CONVERSION defines a new conversion between character set encodings. Also, conversions that are marked DEFAULT can be used for auto- matic encoding conversion between client and server. For this purpose, two conversions, from encoding A to B and from encoding B to A, must be defined. To be able to create a conversion, you must have EXECUTE privilege on the function and CREATE privilege on the destination schema. PARAMETERS
DEFAULT The DEFAULT clause indicates that this conversion is the default for this particular source to destination encoding. There should be only one default encoding in a schema for the encoding pair. name The name of the conversion. The conversion name can be schema-qualified. If it is not, the conversion is defined in the current schema. The conversion name must be unique within a schema. source_encoding The source encoding name. dest_encoding The destination encoding name. funcname The function used to perform the conversion. The function name can be schema-qualified. If it is not, the function will be looked up in the path. The function must have the following signature: conv_proc( integer, -- source encoding ID integer, -- destination encoding ID cstring, -- source string (null terminated C string) internal, -- destination (fill with a null terminated C string) integer -- source string length ) RETURNS void; NOTES
Use DROP CONVERSION to remove user-defined conversions. The privileges required to create a conversion might be changed in a future release. EXAMPLES
To create a conversion from encoding UTF8 to LATIN1 using myfunc: CREATE CONVERSION myconv FOR 'UTF8' TO 'LATIN1' FROM myfunc; COMPATIBILITY
CREATE CONVERSION is a PostgreSQL extension. There is no CREATE CONVERSION statement in the SQL standard. SEE ALSO

CREATE CONSTRAINT 
TRIGGER(7) SQL Commands CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER(7) NAME
CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER - define a new constraint trigger SYNOPSIS
CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER name AFTER event [ OR ... ] ON table_name [ FROM referenced_table_name ] { NOT DEFERRABLE | [ DEFERRABLE ] { INITIALLY IMMEDIATE | INITIALLY DEFERRED } } FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE funcname ( arguments ) DESCRIPTION
CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER creates a constraint trigger. This is the same as a regular trigger except that the timing of the trigger firing can be adjusted using SET CONSTRAINTS [set_constraints(7)]. Constraint triggers must be AFTER ROW triggers. They can be fired either at the end of the statement causing the triggering event, or at the end of the containing transaction; in the latter case they are said to be deferred. A pending deferred-trigger firing can also be forced to happen immediately by using SET CONSTRAINTS. PARAMETERS
name The name of the constraint trigger. This is also the name to use when modifying the trigger's behavior using SET CONSTRAINTS. The name cannot be schema-qualified -- the trigger inherits the schema of its table. event One of INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE; this specifies the event that will fire the trigger. Multiple events can be specified using OR. table_name The (possibly schema-qualified) name of the table in which the triggering events occur. referenced_table_name The (possibly schema-qualified) name of another table referenced by the constraint. This option is used for foreign-key constraints and is not recommended for general use. DEFERRABLE NOT DEFERRABLE INITIALLY IMMEDIATE INITIALLY DEFERRED The default timing of the trigger. See the CREATE TABLE [create_table(7)] documentation for details of these constraint options. funcname The function to call when the trigger is fired. See CREATE TRIGGER [create_trigger(7)] for details. arguments Optional argument strings to pass to the trigger function. See CREATE TRIGGER [create_trigger(7)] for details. COMPATIBILITY
