[jira] [Created] (TRAFODION-2515) Question mark instead of Unicode replacement character is used

Hans Zeller created TRAFODION-2515:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Question mark instead of Unicode replacement character is used
                 Key: TRAFODION-2515
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-2515
             Project: Apache Trafodion
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sql-general
    Affects Versions: 2.0-incubating
            Reporter: Hans Zeller
            Priority: Minor


When we convert text to a character set and encounter an invalid character, we should translate it into the "replacement character" of that character set. For ASCII and ISO-8859-1, we just use a question mark, since there is not special replacement character. When we convert to Unicode, however, we should use U+FFFD as the replacement character (often displayed as a black diamond with a question mark inside).
