Dear all-
I encountered the following problem:
select * from parcel where number = '255 '
gives me 1 row but
select * from parcel where number = '255 ' ::text
does give me 0 rows. The cast removes the trailing empty character.
Why is that? Unfortunately the statements are generated (NPGSQL) and I can’t change the way they are generated. What can I do? Any suggestions highly welcomed!
Volkmar
