To truncate a mulbyte characters properly, you need to know what encoding is used for a .pgc file that ecpg about to process. Currently there is no mechanism in ecpg (and all other frontend) to know what encoding is used for the .pgc files. This is a tough problem... -- Tatsuo Ishii

But on the other hand, compiling would most likely take place in 'C'. Christof
