[SQL] Sqlite to postgres database conversion.swedish chararacter issue

2011-06-16 Thread sara vanan
Hi,
I am new to postgre sql.I need to convert sqlite datbase to postgres
database.i have nearly 15 table in my sqlite database in which 3 table has
swedish characters.

I have used ogr2ogr to convert sqlite database to postgres.I was able to
convert all the tables except the table which had the swedish character.I
have used utf-8 encoding.

I am searching for a sql insert which i can use to convert the table which
has swedish character.

any help regarding this would be appriciated.

Thanks,
Sara

i have never used ogr2ogr or done such thing but you migh try to export from
sqlite by dumping or selecting data to CSV format (.separator command) and
then  make conversions using tr command ih shell for conversion of unwanted
characters, or to use iconv for conversion to another encoding.
after convert is done you can insert it.

Hmm ... I think you are looking at SQL92 or SQL99.



[ digs a bit more... ]  Ah, here we are: Annex E of SQL:2003 calls out
various incompatibilities from SQL:99, notably

6) In ISO/IEC 9075-2:1999, a,, or  could consist of a. None of those three elements can consist of a  in this edition of ISO/IEC 9075.


Thanks for the research. I was indeed reading from SQL99, which was 
current the last time I used SQL. I'll have to spring for a newer 
standard (or the equivalent).
