Thread: unicode and libpq

Hello,

How can I put an UNICODE string with characters which code numbers I 
know, ie. "0x00e9 0x00f1"? When I put that string to SQL query, 
interpeter stops with the first 0x00 code. Any ideas? I have trying with 
UNICODE and LATIN2 client_encoding.

From the subject of your message I assume you're using libpq.
Within libpq you cannot deal with strings containing '\0' resp. 0x00
without processing them through PQescapeBytea.

See
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries
