Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-728:
--------------------------------------
Bernt said in this issue:
"... the path is encoded in EBCDIC (default DRDA encoding) between network
client and server, and thus a character set equivalent to ISO-8859-1 is
supported. This does *not* include chinese characters."
Are we locked into EBCDIC for this initial negotiation? I believe for data
transfer etc, we use UTF-8. Could we change future versions to use UTF-8 for
negotiating the databasename, user and password, or would that be in violation
of the standard?
Thanks
