The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5869 Logged by: David Schmitt Email address: da...@dasz.at PostgreSQL version: 8.4.5 Operating system: Windows 7 Description: postgresql corrupts unquoted non-ascii chars in column aliases Details:
Example query: SELECT column as zurück FROM table; results in corruption of the "ü" (umlaut u). This causes Npgsql to fail to match up the columns in the result set (see http://pgfoundry.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1010988&group_id=1000140&atid= 590) and pgadminIII doesn't display the alias in the result pane. The same query works with the same tools against a 8.4.5 running on Debian squeeze. If the alias is quoted like this: SELECT column as "zurück" FROM table; the query also works against the DB running on windows. PS: I tried downloading the newest version of the one click installer for windows from EnterpriseDB, and noticed that since recently that site requires a registration :-( -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
