UTF-8 is a good choice, because the ascii char got the same values.
(it mean that if you write english in a utf8 editor and open the file
with an ascii editor, you will be able to read it, this is not for
utf32, it can be for utf16, but this is not "safe" (I will not fill
the screen with explanations here))
But UTF-8 is the same for little and big endian, so for multi
platform, this is better.
Otherwise, to be interpreted correctly, it need a BOM.
UTF-8 does not require a BOM (sometimes 0xEF 0xBB 0xBF is added at
the beginning of the file, but this is only for the encoding, not
byte order)
That's why it is used on website among others unicode encoding.
Hi,
UTF-8 is 8 bit code.
Unicode ist 16 and it includes all the chars we know today over
all the
world.
If you want to write arabic , ascii, german, French and etc... in
your db.
Use unicode. the UTF-8 do not include all these chars in one
That information is incorrect. UTF8 supports characters requiring
up to 6bytes of "value". My application currently and concurrently
supports Greek, French, English, Spanish, Italian, Norwegian,
Portuguese, Polish, Czech, German, and Hungarian using UTF-8. None
of those are RTL, though, which is what I was really curious about.
UTF-8 is suited for all languages.
I use it for japanese (left to right or vertical,right to left) and
it work like a charm.

Kuon
