Обсуждение: Unicode transformation for Mac OS X

My java servlet application generates HTML files out of a template file and
PostgreSQL data. The data is accessed via jdbc driver.

The problem: Unicode characters are not transformed correctly to the Mac OS
X encoding (e.g. "Umlaut" characters (accented characters)).

Is this not supported by the jdbc driver? Or do I have to specify some
driver settings?

Rolf,

This should work.  What version are you using?  And what character set
is the database you are testing against using?  (to get the character
set of the database do 'select getdatabaseencoding()')

thanks,

Thank you for your tip. Actually I have solved my problem just now. I
startet my servlet engine (Tomcat) with "java -Dfile.encoding=8859_1" and
everything works fine. The problem was not with the jdbc driver but with
the character encoding of the "Reader" and "Writer" classes of java.

Thanks & Regards
Rolf
