Hi,
in Czech database conference we talk about windows PostgreSQL port and
windows encodings now. The current code expect use win1250 as FE
encoding only. That's right for non-windows systems, but native windows
knows work with this encoding. The encodings separation (FE|BE) is
defined in the include/mb/pg_wchar.h file and I think we can change it
a little by "#ifdef WIN32" and define windows encodings as backend
encodings for windows port.
Pavel Stehule <stehule(at)kix(dot)fsv(dot)cvut(dot)cz> already test win1250 as backend
encoding for windows port and it works. There is more windows encodings
like Big5 and Shift-JIS which are defined as FE only.
I haven't windows so I can't help with this work, but I think people
who work on windows port should test and fix it, because support
windows encodigs in native windows port is well-founded idea. I think
:-)
Karel
