RE: JDBC and Unicode problem

Guys,

Did these changes get worked into the latest driver src?

I looked at the changes file at
http://www.retep.org.uk/postgres/changelog.html but the only possible change
I see after the date of this email is:
- Merged in some last patches. Only 1 left, which may not be compatible with
jdbc1

I'm trying to convert a current site from HSQL (eugh!) to PostgreSQL but I
can't get the Unicode working as per this email thread - I've tried the
usual compile with Unicode, createdb with unicode encoding etc.


Many thanks,
Mike
