As already stated, this is not a problem of SQLite. SQLite assumes all input to be correctly encoded in UTF (unicode), the precise flavor of which may be set (once, between creating a db file and the first insert) by a pragma.
If you insert ISO (latin) encoded strings, SQLite will faithfully reproduce the exact sequence of bytes presented on insert. As long as you use the same encoding to display the results, everything seems tob e ok, even though the byte sequence stored is technically worng. If you insist on interpreting these using a different encoding and without explicitly converting, then you will experience problems with characters that encode differently. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: sqlite-users-boun...@mailinglists.sqlite.org [mailto:sqlite-users-boun...@mailinglists.sqlite.org] Im Auftrag von Wang, Wei Gesendet: Dienstag, 07. Juni 2016 09:43 An: sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org Betreff: [sqlite] Latin-1 characters cannot be supported for Unicode Hi, I met a problem that was maybe caused by the encoding of SQLite. I inserted a item which including some Latin1 characters like Ç and à into a table. Then I opened the database with SQLite Developer. After I setting the encoding to ANSI, the display and the query result for that table were OK. However after I setting the encoding to Unicode, these Latin1 characters could not be displayed normally, and could not be queried out. Please see the attached pictures for the details.
