[SMW-devel] Adding a "case-insensitive" option to SMWStringCondition

[Yaron K. <ya...@gm...>]

Hi,
The SMWStringCondition class, defined in /includes/storage/SMW_Store.php,
defines conditions that can be added to string searches. Currently three
condition types are defined: STRCOND_PRE, STRCOND_POST, and STRCOND_MID; all
three relate to where in the target string the search string can be located.
I would like to see another condition added, one that dictates a
case-insensitive search, perhaps called STRCOND_CASEINSENSITIVE or
STRCOND_NOCASE; and then, of course, support for that new condition wherever
it applies. I would like this for Semantic Forms' property-based
autocompletion feature, which so far has been using hardcoded SQL, but which
I'd like to transfer to use SMW's SQLStore code; it has to be
case-insensitive. Are there any objections to having such an option added?
