Hi!
Windows 7x64, PG9.0, PGAdmin 1.12.1.
First I sent this problem to PGADMIN support list, you can see it, but
I repeat the description.
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgadmin-support/2011-04/msg00012.php
I tried to fillup a text field with all ANSI characters
chr(1)..chr(255). Except 0 because it is string limitator in C.
This experience is based on that I want to check, how the row encoded
in "Backup" (how to COPY eat this).
But when I tried to see the row in PGADMIN, I got this error:
ERROR: character 0x81 of encoding "WIN1250" has no equivalent in "UTF8"
********** Error **********
ERROR: character 0x81 of encoding "WIN1250" has no equivalent in "UTF8"
SQL state: 22P05
I reported this to PGADMIN list, but Dave said:
That error comes from PostgreSQL, and is entirely expected if you try
to store non-printable characters in a text column, and then convert
it to UTF-8 (which is what happens when pgAdmin requests data).
PostgreSQL is extremely strict about enforcing the correctness of
unicode data.
Interesting thing that I have Win1250 context with Win1250 db.
I think that is unacceptable to cannot see the row.
EMS PG Manager can show the row, but may it do something in other way
- I don't know.
Thanks:
