If you can't modify the queries in your application, you could intercept the query inside MonetDB before it gets passed into the parser and modify it there.

It's ugly, but if you compile from source, you could change the C-code to use case insensitive comparisons. Not sure if the same code is used by MonetDB itself to lookup tables etc.
It is. Bad luck with your mysql application.
Yes, the string comparison method is system wide. It complies with the SQL standard.
You might, after 'fixing' this issue, quickly hit on more incompatibilities.

Anthony, as Ariel said, in some cases we cannot modify the query.

hi, would
SELECT * FROM LCASE( Country ) = 'jamaica'
solve this problem?

Hi
MonetDB is case sensitive, except for those places where the SQL standard allows. Strings are therefore case sensitive. There is no knob to change that behavior.

Hi All!
We are facing a problem, we used to work with mysql with the case insensitive. Now we have moved into MonetDB and we are facing a problem with this issue.
Some of our queries are not bringing any data because of the sensitive..
SELECT * FROM Country = 'jamaica' ... 0 Records SELECT * FROM Country = 'Jamaica' ... 10 Records
Some cases we solved it using the ILIKE, but we still have some code on our app that cannot be modified.
Does anybody know if there is any flag or setup or config for the Database in Monet to make it insensitive ?
Thanks in advance for the help!
