From the description in the bug this seems like the right change, but
it does seem like it may also be another incompatibility.  Should it
be added to the wiki? What difference will an app that somehow depended on the old (wrong) behavior see now?

    Attachment: derby-1519-1a.stat
                derby-1519-1a.diff

'derby-1519-1a.diff' changes all uses of US-ASCII on the client to ISO-8859-1.
suites.All run without errors with Java 1.5, and I started a derbyall now.

Please raise your concerns if you have any, I will commit if the second test 
run goes well.

'setAsciiStream' uses different encodings for embedded and client

                Key: DERBY-1519
                URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1519
            Project: Derby
         Issue Type: Bug
         Components: JDBC, Network Client
   Affects Versions: 10.1.3.1, 10.2.1.6
           Reporter: Kristian Waagan
           Priority: Minor
        Attachments: derby-1519-1a.diff, derby-1519-1a.stat


The JDBC method 'setAsciiStream' uses different encodings for embedded and client. In the embedded 
driver, "ISO-8859-1" is used, in the client driver "US-ASCII" is used. The 
former is 8-bit, the latter is 7-bit. According to JDBC, the 8-bit encoding should be used for 
ASCII (see http://db.apache.org/derby/papers/JDBCImplementation.html#GetAsciiStream%28%29 ).
The method 'getAsciiStream' should also be made to match in the two drivers.
