sorry if this is the wrong address for my question, but I have not
find related information on other way. I have a problem with
DBD.Ingres 0.51 on SuSE Linux 9.0 with DB Ingres II 3.0.3 (int. lnx.
103). Are the unicode types (nvarchar/nchar) not supported in this
version?
An error message is shown “filed <Number> has unsupported
type 27” if access a table with nvarchar. Have you any idea what can
be this problem solved?
Hi.
This is the corect place for this kind of question.
Unfortunately you are quite right - the current release of DBD::Ingres
does not support wide (unicode) character sets.
As far as I can recall it should not be too difficult to add, but I
haven't got round to it yet.
And as I no longer use Ingres actively (I have switched jobs over a year
ago and now have to suffer under MySQL) the chances that I will add it
in the near furture are very slim.
You are more than welcome to patch it yourself. I will be happy to
release a new version or add you as a co-maintainer of DBD::Ingres.
Best of luck and sorry I cannot be more helpful
