PostgreSQL, client encoding
« on: June 28, 2007, 03:55:46 pm »
Hi!
I'm preparing to start writing a PostgreSQL application with Lazarus front-end.
Previously, I had some problems with retrieving/writing data to UTF-8 PostgreSQL databases. For example, Lazarus couldn't correctly display local WIN1250 characters from UTF-8 database. I had to change database encoding to WIN1250 first.
 So, I'd like to create PostgreSQL database using encoding that will be as much as possible universal regarding different local encodings. What do you suggest? ANSI, ASCII, ... ?

Regards,

Zlatko
