A SQLFunction implementation that emulates the ANSI SQL trim function on dialects which do not support the full definition. However, this function definition does assume the availability of ltrim, rtrim, and replace functions which it uses in various combinations to emulate the desired ANSI trim() functionality.

NOTE : essentially we:
  1. replace all space chars with the text '${space}$'
  2. replace all the actual replacement chars with space chars
  3. perform left-trimming (that removes any of the space chars we just added which occur at the beginning of the text)
  4. replace all space chars with the replacement char
  5. replace all the '${space}$' text with space chars
