Subject Using unicode versus WIN1252 (Firebird 2)
Author Josef Gschwendtner
Hi,

we only store German characters within the database.
Are there good reasons for using characterset WIN1252 anymore?

Are there any drawbacks with unicode? (Performance, memory consumption,
...).

Is there a way to switch from WIN1252 to Unicode without creating a new
database and copy the data?


Regards,

Josef
