In looking at the 7.1beta1 code for JDBC, I noticed that support was
added to support character set encodings. However I noticed that the
encoding that is used isn't obtained from the DB. Since Java uses
unicode UCS2 internally the character set encoding is used to translate
strings from/to the DB encoding. So it seems logical that the code
would get the encoding from the DB instead of the current method of
requiring the user pass it as a parameter.

Attached is a patch that gets the DB encoding from the DB in the same
manner as is done in libpq/fe-connect.c. The patch is created off of
the latest CVS sources (Connection.java version 1.10).

thanks,
--Barry
