[jira] Commented: (DERBY-1519) 'setAsciiStream' uses different encodings for embedded and client

Kristian Waagan commented on DERBY-1519:
----------------------------------------

Would people object to just changing the encoding in the client from US-ASCII to ISO-8859-1?
This would make Derby more compliant with JDBC, but could it also break existing applications?

I have checked that the change does not break any tests for Clob, but it remains to see if the same is true for PreparedStatement.setAsciiStream (on the client).

> The JDBC method 'setAsciiStream' uses different encodings for embedded and client. In the embedded driver, "ISO-8859-1" is used, in the client driver "US-ASCII" is used. The former is 8-bit, the latter is 7-bit. According to JDBC, the 8-bit encoding should be used for ASCII (see http://db.apache.org/derby/papers/JDBCImplementation.html#GetAsciiStream%28%29 ).
> The method 'getAsciiStream' should also be made to match in the two drivers.
