Perhaps my Unicode patch for DBD::ODBC (at http://www.alexander-foken.de/downloads.html) could show a way how to modify DBD::Ingres. Someone could also try to make my changes to DBD::ODBC work on non-Win32 platforms.

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
