The request for GetB and SetB to support widechar data is reasonable. I will
try to fit it in to the final 602.

@Bill,
Thanks for the xml suggestion, I would definitely take it into
consideration.
@Eric,
I know you have a lot on your plate right now with the latest version in
beta status. I would just like to request, if you have some time, to look
into improving GetB() and SetB() function to support widechar Unicode. I
know that a lot of people would benefit from this particularly for us
who's in the Asian region.
Thanks and I am still open to suggestions regarding this problem.
r/Alex

If setB does not support widechar unicode, we have to wait until Eric
improve
it. Alternatively you may serialize the array into xml for
communication, eg
]test=: 2 2$ 42 ; (ucp '对最后问题的答复。') ; 0 ; ucp 'This is a
test'
+--+---------------------------+
|42|对最后问题的答复。|
+--+---------------------------+
|0 |This is a test |

j2xml test

<data>
<array>
<data>
<number>42</number>

</array>
<array>

You have to write j2xml and xml in both in J and c#. BTW I would prefer
using
inverted table to process record set coming from sql sources.
ifa test
+----+--------------------------------+
|42 0|对最后问题的答复。 |

j2xml ifa test

<data>
<array>
<rank>

</rank>
<data>
<number>42 0</number>
</data>
</array>
<array>
<rank>

<dimension>14</dimension>
</rank>
<data>
<uchar><![CDATA[

xml2j j2xml ifa test

PS. in the above examples, CDATA is encoded in base64, but you may
choose other
methods.
