Re: unicode error on win32 Was: Re: pgmonitor - Mailing list pgsql-general

I use a database with UNIBASE encoding too. Writing strings in unicode with german vovels does not work. We access the database via the ODBC driver.

What kind of documentation do you mean with You may check your documentation ?

Best regards,

ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UNICODE": 0xed

my database used UNICODE as the encoding. and the OS is win2k pro wich
simplified chinese
as default language.

Dont steal threads by just answering to an unrelated e-mail 
from the list!

To your question: afaic the win32 port currently has some issues
with the right support of unicode. You may check your documentation.
Do you think its a good idea to actually name objects in the database
in a foreign encoding? I'd stick to english language names here because
it makes chatting about problems/hints much more easy on mailinglists.
