I am doing a new major release of IB Objects soon and I want to get confirmation of some things before I finalize it.
I have some scenarios that I would like to know what to do about. There are a total of 9 possible combinations of 3 aspects. Aspect #1: Database created with a default character set of ??? or NONE. Aspect #2: Database connected to with a character set of ??? or NONE. Aspect #3: Columns given their own character set of ??? or left blank. I need to know what happens with each possible combination. For example, if I have a database that was created with default character set of NONE and there is a column in it defined as UTF8. Then, when I connect to the database using character set of UTF8, how will the data be sent to the client? Will all of it be transliterated into UTF8? Have there been any changes in how this has been handled from version to version? Thanks for helping me get confirmation on this, as well as any additional tidbits you may wish to share.
