I tried this with an UTF-8 encoded string (japanese):
"\u304A\u308C\u3068\u9B5A".unpack("U*").pack("C*")
Which gives me this in return:
"u304Au308Cu3068u9B5A"
And that's not what I want stored in my index, right?
Now I'm pretty sure I'm doing something dumb :-) hopefully someone can clarify.
Thanks.
