Unicode support on Win32

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am using Windows as a development environment (and database design),
and  it seems that Unicode is not supported on Win32.

Is there word on when Unicode support will be implemented on the
Windows port of PostgreSQL?

I was used to using mySQL and it supported Unicode on Windows
properly.. But I suppose that the Windows port of PostgreSQL is still
working in progress.

On the other hand, could I pick a different charset for now, and when I
need to copy this whole database to a production machine (that will use
linux) choose the UTF-8 charset ?

I also don't seem to understand why you need to define the whole
database as unicode ? Don't you only need unicode for certain fields,
and the rest can be Latin1?

Thanks :)
