Editing Conversion Properties

Owner
The owner of the conversion function.

Note: Support from PostgreSQL 8.0 or later.

Source encoding
The source encoding name.

Target encoding
The destination encoding name.

Schema of function and Function
The function used to perform the conversion. The function name may 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;

Default
Check this box to indicate 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.
