Thank you.
I already decide to use Mule-Internal encoding. In fact, there is no
other choice. But I'm still not sure that I can solve my problem with
mule -internal encoding.
1. How can I copy(or backup) mule-internal encoded data. Mule-Internal
is for just back-end. If there is a table that have rows in many
different kind of language. I think, I could not back it up. Am I wrong?
2. I think Unicode is better then mule-internal. So, I will use unicode
encoding as soon as postgresql support automatic unicode translation. At
that time, should I translate mule-internal encoded table to unicode. (
I know there is positive side in mule-internal. One is It store string
with it's char set code. So I can distinguish the original char set of
character string. Another is postgresql use UTF-8 to store Unicode data.
It has a lot of over head when you encode CJK char. string.)
3. I don't know how postgresql sort mule-internal encoded data. Mule-
internal is not another char set. It just store 2 byte char with it's
char set code. I mean it store 1 character(2bytes) in 3 bytes. I just
guess, postgresql may sort data by it's char set, first.
