Hi,
Thank you Iain for your quick reply.
But unfortunately this did not solve the problem, 7.1 does not support this conversion neither yet. (7.3 and 7.4 do):
SET client_encoding='UNICODE';
ERROR: Conversion between UNICODE and EUC_JP is not supported
In theory, I have 3 possible places to convert UTF8 to EUC_JP:
- 1 inside postgres
- 2 inside ODBC
- 3 inside C#
1
C# ODBC Postgres 7.1
Utf8 l =============> l l =====>l UTF8->EUC_JP
(possible->Unicode) l UTF8 l l UTF8 l
______________________l (or Unicode) l________________l l_______________
2
C# ODBC Postgres 7.1
Utf8 l =============> l UTF8->EUC_JP l =====>l
(possible->Unicode) l UTF8 l l EUC_JPl
______________________l (or Unicode) l________________l l_______________
3
C# ODBC Postgres 7.1
UTF8->EUC_JP l =============> l l =====>l
(possible->Unicode) l EUC_JP l l EUC_JPl
______________________l l________________l l_______________
Number 1 seem to be the normal solution, but it does not work with 7.1.
I would like to know if number 2 or 3 are possible:
so,
- Can the ODBC driver convert the query string from UTF8 to EUC_JP before sending it to the database server ?
or
- Can the ODBC driver take EUC_JP string as input ? (then I would 'just' have to figure out how to send EUC_JP stings from C#...)
Help extremely needed...
Thank you !
Benjamin
