Hi!
In 2.5 we presume that Linux system charset is UTF-8. In trunk iConv
library is used for it.
But it's causing different behavior of embedded / server mode.
The function to get the system charset is nl_langinfo(CODESET). Man page
says:
CODESET (LC_CTYPE)
Return a string with the name of the character encoding used in
the selected locale, such as "UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1", or "ANSI_X3.4-1968"
(better known as US-ASCII). This is the same string that you get
with "locale charmap". For a list of character encoding names,
try "locale -m", cf. locale(1).
My related env. var is (only it):
LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8
And locale charmap gives:
UTF-8
Now if I try to connect to localhost:database_some_non_ascii_characters,
I get:
Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 08001
Invalid connection string
-Cannot transliterate character between character sets
-Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
While without localhost: prefix it works (in isql).
I removed setlocale from isql, and then the same error happens with
embedded.
Even if I export LC_CTYPE=$LANG it does not work.
