Hello.
You set the character_set_xxx variables only for your session. MySQL CC is not under development now, and I don't know what it reads from MySQL configuration files. Usually putting the following string in the [client] section of the configuration file affects the clients to use specified encoding: default_character_set = your_encoding But only if client library is instructed to read options. MySQL CC seems to be not using this option.
