However, they provide some other features that are not available with a B-tree index, as described below. Also, these operator classes are useful when a multicolumn GiST index is needed, wherein some of the columns are of data types that are only indexable with GiST but other columns are just simple data types. Lastly, these operator classes are useful for GiST testing and as a base for developing other GiST operator classes. </P ><P > In addition to the typical B-tree search operators, <TT CLASS="FILENAME" >btree_gist</TT > also provides index support for <TT CLASS="LITERAL" ><></TT > (<SPAN CLASS="QUOTE" >"not equals"</SPAN >).
