GOAL:
How to set -cpinternal and -cpstream on the client when accessing a UTF-8 encoded database.
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1x
FIX:
Progress 9 does not support the UTF-8 codepage for the graphical or character client, so these clients must start up in a codepage OTHER than UTF-8.
This code page must be compatible and the programmer must follow guidelines for multi-byte programming, such as distinguishing characters, bytes, and columns.
Therefore, depending on what language the client wants to view and write the data to the database, this will determine the setting of:
-cpinternal (the code page that Progress uses in memory and for graphical clients)
-cpstream (the code page for stream I/O).
