I'm not sure I agree it'd be fine to allow an ASCII charset modified. After all the idea is to simply allow all UTF-8 characters in, right?
If that means that any characters that are outside the ASCII range (everything beyond the first 128 UTF-8 characters) are simply allowed, then I think this is questionable behavior if you would not get any indication that you're in fact letting in non ASCII data. kind regards, Roland On Sun, Apr 3, 2011 at 5:47 AM, Brian Aker <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi! > > On Apr 2, 2011, at 6:55 PM, Stewart Smith wrote: > >> That being said, people throw UTF8 data at mysql in latin1 columns all > > After some further thought and reading, while ASCII would be fine, LATIN > would not be, but I think in the end? > > Just not allowing anything other then DEFAULT or utf8/utf-8. > > Cheers, > -Brian > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > -- Roland Bouman blog: http://rpbouman.blogspot.com/ twitter: @rolandbouman Author of "Pentaho Solutions: Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing with Pentaho and MySQL", http://tinyurl.com/lvxa88 (Wiley, ISBN: 978-0-470-48432-6) Author of "Pentaho Kettle Solutions: Building Open Source ETL Solutions with Pentaho Data Integration", http://tinyurl.com/33r7a8m (Wiley, ISBN: 978-0-470-63517-9) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
