What database?
How does the app read fom the db?
I use wxPerl witl DBI with PostgreSQL and SQLite backends.
To have the database return real UTF-8 encoded stings, for PostgreSQL I
need to do:
$dbh->do("SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'UNICODE'");
$dbh->{pg_enable_utf8} = 1;
For SQLite:
if ( $DBD::SQLite::VERSION ge "1.26_06" ) {
$dbh->{sqlite_unicode} = 1;
}
else {
$dbh->{unicode} = 1;
}
Probably your database needs something like this?
