Re: PLPGSQL with Multibyte Issue

At the beginning, I used the SQL_ASCII database encoding and found it is not
working
now, I'm using the EUC_TW as the database encoding,
and using ODBC to connect to the database, excute the plpgsql functions.
(and I'm having
SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'BIG5' in the connection string).

everything seems to be fine now,
but I'm still worrying if there's any loopholes there... :-(
(Too scarey to find another `truth' about the shortcoming of plpgsql)

So if anyone has similar experience, please let me know.

Thanks so much.

BTW, if I want to insert a single slash character, `\' , do I have to use
'\\\\' (that's totally 4 slashes)
inorder to  `EXCUTE' DYNAMIC plpgsql query? (sorry for my poor explanation)
e.g.   str := '' insert into test values(''''\\\\'''');'' -- I've tried putting
\\, it doesn't work, how come it is so?   excute str;
