For instance, Postgres by default does not know this collation and fails with:

SQLSTATE[42704]: Undefined object: 7 ERROR:  collation "utf8_bin" for encoding "UTF8" does not exist `.

By default it does accept C.UTF-8 or... default.

By hardcoding this value, you limit use cases to MySQL with imposed collation and break Doctrine's @Column collation support.

Specifing collation in @Column renders invalid SQL

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="shortid", options={"collation": "C.UTF-8"})
 */

renders SQL like that:

CHAR(7) COLLATE "utf8_bin" NOT NULL COLLATE "C.UTF-8"

As a short-term workaround, it's possible to prepend migration with:

CREATE COLLATION IF NOT EXISTS utf8_bin FROM "C.UTF-8";

But this solution breaks migrations atomicity.

Hi,

I read through the code and now I am not sure, if possible ID collisions are detected or actively avoided? I found this answer on stackoverflow suggesting a method how to actively avoid collisions with existing entities. Now I'm wondering, if Doctine itself handles such collisions internally?

Collisions are very rare, but there is a chance rising with every extisting entity, so checking the generated shortid looks like a good idea.

Any ideas on this?
