hi mark,
What happens if you explicitly specify the table character set to be
'utf-8'? (i.e. you're relying on the database default character set to
take care of that for you right now)...
'CREATE TABLE foo CHARACTER SET utf8'

All I can say is that with the testcase I posted, it is shown
hi mark,
If you specify UTF-8 as the characterEncoding connection property, then
that is the transform that is used from client -> server. The transform
that is used from server -> client is whatever character set the column
in the table is set to when you created the table (or conversely if you

hallo mark,
Hopefully the following JUnit testcase helps show that your problem

statements, retrieves them, compares to original as strings, and
byte-for-byte using t
