Hi I have a system up and working using sqlite3, but I think I am having unicode issues and I am not sure how I should go about coding the solution. I was hoping someone could share the approach needed. Here is my situation:
I have german characters which "Umlauts" which I would like to get back out of sqlite. An example is an "a" with two little dots on the top. I have been using the non "16" versions. But in my mind thats ok, I just want whatever I put in back out again. The facts that its unicode should make a diff to sqlite. Unicode of 2 bytes say will be just be 2 normla chars to sqlite. At least this was an assumption. So if I look at a name with umlaughts in the database via sqlite3.exe I get: Städt. Klinikum Neunkirchen gGmbH -- | an "a" with two dots on top Now I expected that when this was put back into a unicode field it would be ok, but it doesnt seem to work. So I tried the *16 versions, but now the field size returned by "sqlite3_column_bytes16" always seems to be larger than the string I get back resulting in junk characters on the end. So I get the Umlauts in my application but all this other junk as well. Any ideas ?
