try that one ...
we have used this as a basic workaround for some problems we had with
encoding ...
-- converts any character set to any character set ...
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION iconv(text, text, text) RETURNS text AS '
use Text::Iconv;
my $from = shift;
my $to = shift;
my $code = shift;
$converter = Text::Iconv->new($from, $to);
$converted = $converter->convert($code);
return $converted;
' LANGUAGE 'plperlu';
-- SELECT iconv('LATIN2', 'IBM437', 'Hallo Üü a');
-- SELECT pg_client_encoding(), iconv(pg_client_encoding(), 'IBM437',
'Hallo Üü a');
SELECT iconv(pg_client_encoding(), 'IBM437', 'Hallo Üü a');
maybe this is useful ...
