Thread: Postgres and Unicode

I still haven't got rid of the problem with ISO 8859-2 charset and
Postgres. While I may use the database with correct Polish locale (by
using only --enable-locale) it is still impossible (in 7.1) to use unicode
encoding with Polish chars.

I have tried every possible combination of compile/init parameters and it
doesn't work either - there are problems with upper/lower functions. and
collation order.

Any else suggestions?

I don't think ISO 8859-2 collation would work if you store data as
Unicode into the database since it's Unicode.
