Hi all, sorry for repost, but I have gathered some more info for my encoding problem.
I am using latest SQLite with Java 1.4.2 and openSuSE in order to build a morphological analyzer for the German language (it's an open source project for my University). I found out that SuSE has UTF-8 activated by default, so when I compiled db and the wrapper from Christian Werner UTF-8 was "on". When I manually insert data into my db, the "umlauts" ä,ü,ß,ö and the like are properly displayed. But with Java, when I read either from an ISO 8859-1 or UTF-8 encoded textfile and then query the db, I see that the umlauts are substituted with strange letters. To be more precise, when UTF-8 was still activated, all occurences of umlaut where substituted with dotted rectangles. I then deactivated UTF-8 and now I see strange letters (like the 'i' with two dots or the question mark upside down) instead of the umlauts. What do I need to do to fix this? Must I compile SQLite again having UTF-8 deactivated? I'd prefer using ISO 8859-1 over UTF-8 if possible. _Please_ help Pasquale
