Обсуждение: Unicode in PGAdmin
Hi, what about unicode support in pgadmin? Sure, one can set client_encoding to iso8859-1 or so, but then you can't handle different charsets at the same time. My understanding is there is a unicode-aware odbc driver already and VB should also handle unicode like other windows applications. Dave, do you think this would have a deep impact on pgadmin source? Regards Tino

Hi Tino, Contrary to what Microsoft say, VB doesn't support Unicode in any useful way. Whilst the core language does, none of the UI components (controls) do. The answer is to use the controls that ship with MS Office, though as Microsoft point out, that means all users need an Office licence, which is something I'm not about to require of people. We are now working on pgAdmin III which is written in C++, and will eventually support Unicode. Regards, Dave.

Ah ok. This sounds promising in the aspect of porting to an "OS" ;)) Will you make it modular in a way porting is possible? Will it be multithreaded? I've seen there is native support for postgresql also as win32 libs, so there should be no need to use ODBC in all circumstances (For example to catch messages like psql does) Regards Tino

It should also run on other Unixes and OS-X, but I don't have any right now. We also use libpq rather than ODBC now, so yes, we have complete access to the server. Regards, Dave.

Is there something in the CVS repository to get envolved? Regards Tino

Yup, check out the pgadmin3 module from cvs.pgadmin.org. There is a web interface at that address as well. Regards, Dave.
