Hello to all, I compiled postgresql with unicode support: ./configure --enable-multibyte=UNICODE later I create the DB: createDB JMdict -R UNICODE \encoding shows UNICODE so far, so good... As java natively speaks unicode(UTF-8), just naively wrote strings of Japanese into the DB. But actually they reside as "?" in the Database. this doesn't seem to be UNICODE support, i.e. I am probably missing something, as of how I can enter data as unicode. Hopefully you might help me out there, as I'm probably not the only one with the ned of UNICODE and Java. best greets & cheers, chris ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
