jConnect versions 4.1 and later support the use of the new European currency symbol, or “euro,” and its conversion to and from UCS-2 Unicode.
The euro has been added to the following Sybase character sets: cp1250, cp1251, cp1252, cp1253, cp1254, cp1255, cp1256, cp1257, cp1258, cp874, iso885915, and utf8.
To use the euro symbol:
Use the PureConverter class, a pure Java, multibyte character-set converter. See “jConnect character-set converters” for more information.
Verify that the new character sets are installed on the server.
The euro symbol is currently supported only on Adaptive Server version 11.9.2 and later; Adaptive Server Anywhere version 8.0 and later provides support for the euro symbol.
Select the appropriate character set on the client. See “Setting the CHARSET connection property” for more information.
