Database Parameter Support

Configure the database parameters locale and charset.

The database parameters locale and charset can be configured through the driver and set as follows:

• At the environment level, either set LC_ALL or LANG to “C”.
• Use the default character set customary for your platform. The most commonly used default character sets are iso_1 and for HP/UX, roman8.

Currently there is no DSN support to change the locale or charset at connection time.

See the Open Client and Open Server International Developers Guide for more information about character sets.
