  The use of Linux sqldr causes each field after the field with the "multibyte character" to be extinguished by a single character. Without these characters do not exhibit this problem.

  The sample data that is causing the problem (area C): Fran "ois".

  How to import this data correctly?

  Hi Brian,.

  I used the drill in the position to ignore the characters xxxx between b and c-, but there is another way to do it-see below

  DOWNLOAD THE DATA

  CHARACTERS OF LENGTH UTF8 CHARACTER SEMANTICS

  TRUNCATE

  IN THE Test TABLE

  (

  A TANK (3),

  B TANK (5),

  C (47) TANK "SUBSTR(:C,12,35)."

  D TANK (35)

  )

  I think it will work in any case - you just need to work on math for all substrings, you may need to (I hope not too many).

  The problem seems to be present (citing the docs)

  "The start and end arguments of the POSITION parameter are interpreted in bytes, even if the character length semantics is used in a data file." This is necessary to manage the data files which show a mixture of data of the different data types, some use of character length semantics, and how some use the semantics of length in bytes. It is also necessary to manage the position with the VARCHAR data type, which has a SMALLINT "length" field and then the character data. The SMALLINT "length" field contains a certain number of bytes according to the system (typically 2 bytes), but its value indicates the length of the string in characters. "ref here http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28319/ldr_control_file.htm#i1008619

  So I think that position just unusable for multibyte (finally set apart on windows it seems...)

• VARCHAR2: 8 k limit when you use a multibyte character set

  Hi people,
  Apex 3.1.2 on 10.2.0.4 RAC on linux; the character set standard for my organization is AL32UTF8.
  The apex database contains all non-US7ASCII character.
  
  In a part of the URL, I just came from a package XML strings that are concatenated and passed as a parameter to Anychart.swf. Once my concatenated string exceeds 8 k I get "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value." This is because on a UTF8 database are reserved to 4 bytes for each character; whether coded on several bytes, or not - and the varchar2 (32767) is exhausted.
  
  It is a severe limitation as the XML table can easily exceed 8 k.
  
  What choices do I have?
  -If I change my database in US7ASCII he works my limit for the concatenation in a region with a real 32,767 characters? Better, but still limited.
  -are there functions to force a single byte per character conversion - I don't think so, but just in case where...
  -would spend using CLOB? I'm worried it might slow down processing low-response time is one of the main motivations for going to the whole problem in the first place.
  
  My code looks like this:
  
  DECLARE
  Xml1 VARCHAR2 (4000);
  xml2 VARCHAR2 (4000);
  XML3 VARCHAR2 (4000);
  xml4 VARCHAR2 (4000);
  str1 VARCHAR2 (32767).
  
  pkg_chart. Gen_Chart_Xml5
  (p_chart = >...)
  , p_Location = >...
  , p_timescale = >...
  , p_Day = >...
  , p_RETURN1 = > xml1
  , p_RETURN2 = > xml2
  , p_RETURN3 = > xml3
  , p_RETURN4 = > xml4
  );
  str1: = xml1. xml2 | XML3 | xml4;
  
  .. .and later
  var Chart1 = new AnyChart();
  Chart1.SetData ("' | str1 |) ''');
  Chart1.write ("chartDiv-1");
  
  Right now my code fails in concatenation in str1 if the total length is more than about 8 k.
  I've seen different messages about CLOB handling in the apex and it seems to be fraught with problems too: so I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to best proceed. or could you show me an example to do something like this using CLOB instead.
  
  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  I was about to hit you up an example when I spotted a recent blog post of someone I know called Morten Jensen.

  His blog is here [http://theworldofjensenmo.blogspot.com/] and here is the relevant quote...

  >
  He must be a procedure which will be "buffer printing" CLOB. The procedure to come htp.prn with the PL/SQL Web Toolkit in the Oracle database allow up to 8192 characters to print at a time, which is too few in my case. So this function below will share a CLOB up to 256 character fragments and htp.prn them one at a time.

  create or replace PROCEDURE HTP_BUF_PRN
  (p_text IN CLOB
  ) AS
  l_buflen INTEGER: = 256;
  BEGIN

  FOR i FROM 0... Floor (length (p_text) / l_buflen) LOOP
  -HTP. PRN will not accept lines up to 8192 characters - that's why this function is required
  HTP. PRN (substr (p_text, i * l_buflen + 1, l_buflen));
  END LOOP;

  -htp.prn (substr (p_text, LENGTH (p_text) - (LENGTH (p_text) mod l_buflen), LENGTH (p_text) mod l_buflen));

  END HTP_BUF_PRN;
  >

  He hit me with that feeling of "why didn't I think that!

  I hope this helps.

• "testing" a new character set

  11.2

  We have two environments. CHOOSE the value OF V$ NLS_Parameters WHERE parameter = "NLS_CHARACTERSET"; Returns WE8ISO8859P1 AL32UTF8 and one in the other. Asked me to 'test' the support for multibyte characters and see what we need to do.

  I don't know how to approach the issue. So I went to the basics of loading of SQL * Plus and execute: SELECT 'Ä' FROM Dual;

  In WE8ISO8859P1 result:

  '

  -

  ?

  In AL32UTF8:

  '?'

  ---

  ?

  The only difference seems to be the display of single quotes in the header.

  What should I configure SQL * more? Is there a 'simple test' to show the difference between the two environments?

  Your task is not well defined. You cannot 'test data' unless you want to repeat that all the thousands of tests run by Oracle to test its product :-)  You can test some features in the database, but more often, you want to test a business with the database application.

  Certainly, an AL32UTF8 database can store data in any language supported by Unicode. You don't have to test this possibility. Thousands of databases with this character set and store data from around the world. However, AL32UTF8 is a multibyte character set. In other words, you need to store a lot of characters may have different codes of those in a database of the WE8ISO8859P1 and these codes can have more than one byte. Depending on how the columns of the table are defined, lengths of scope are defined, the application is configured, etc, you may or may not notice problems. As you can see, you need test a particular application to useful tests.

  If you want to just test the entry of accented Latin characters of languages of Western Europe on an American or a Western European version of Windows, then:

  -Open Command Prompt

  -Run:

  C:\ > chcp

  Should display:

  Active code page: 437 (or 850)

  If you see 437, enter:

  C:\ > set NLS_LANG =. US8PC437

  If you see 850, enter:

  C:\ > set NLS_LANG =. WE8PC850

  Then, run SQL * more (in the same window from command line!):

  C:\ > sqlplus...

  You should be able to enter Western European characters in the WE8ISO8859P1 database and the AL32UTF8 database with this configuration. Note, WE8ISO8859P1 can't stand not all characters available under Windows. For example, it does not support the Euro character.

  However, I recommend Oracle SQL Developer to test the characters entry in a database. It requires no any configuration for most popular languages. Configuration of fonts in the JDK can prevail for lesser-used languages.

• build the new database through scripts must understand Spanish character sets.

  Hello gurus,
  I need to some simple tips, a good chance for some quick points for you.
  I've never built a database to understand any different other than the U.S. English character set. I now have to build a database that will be used for characters Spanish-keyboards, etc. But I will use English to install 11g software. I just want to be able to show the Spanish characters in the data for the names of clients.
  I will create the database with scripts that I did to make the standard model for data files, control files, etc..
  Then I import in a dump that I did and that was done with American English character sets.
  The system is 11g (11.2.0.3.0) on Linux Enterprise Server 5.8.
  I thought I'd use the AL32UTF8 character set, but I'm not sure where to use them.
  My original test showed no Spanish characters for names of customers as the "tilda" or "sueano" (excuse my spelling). But in this case I did the exceptional for Spanish, I used only the construction of standard American English (no change in the file init.ora or original database create script).
  
  How can I adjust my settings file for the initial creation of the database model to be able to understand the Spanish character set and still be able to import my dump error-free file.
  
  EXAMPLE of a build script:
  
  CREATE DATABASE mynewdb
  The USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY sys_password
  The USER IDENTIFIED BY system_password SYSTEM
  LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo01.log') SIZE in the 100M.
  GROUP 2 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo02.log') SIZE in the 100M.
  GROUP 3 ('/ u01/app/oracle/oradata/mynewdb/redo03.log') SIZE 100 M
  MAXLOGFILES 5
  MAXLOGMEMBERS 5
  MAXLOGHISTORY 1
  MAXDATAFILES 100
  CHARACTER SET US7ASCII
  NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL16UTF16
  
  If I replace to AL32UTF8 AL16UTF16 NATIONAL CHARACTER SET, will it work to show the Spanish characters?
  
  Sorry for the long-winded question, any advice will be great.
  
  Fortunately,
  Shawn

  Hello
  the national character sets is for the column as nvarchar types not for normal varchar data types. So if your dump file contains column types, you also need to set. The character set is for normal column as a varchar types. The use of unicode is best practice if you use the multiel language, but keep in mind that multibyte character set can be a problem when importing because varchar2 (10) means byte 10 and not 10 characters, so mistakes as an identifier for a long time may occur when importing.
  You can create the database.

  See this documentation:
  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28298/ch2charset.htm

  You can use a like WE8MSWIN1252 character set which covers the Spanish also (like many, I know) and a superset of us7ascii

• Sometimes, the Firefox doesn't recognize a character set

  Firefox can not decode some English text characters or symbols and instead of characters appear a kind of codes. Just like you would surf the Chinese website without the Chinese character set.

  Like this here

  Why is it so in Firefox? I've never seen what happens in Internet Explorer.

  Pages that use Unicode (UTF-8) format display a small box with the hex code if the character cannot be displayed.
  Which allows you to search the character in a table.

  If you see such a box with hexadecimal code in it, then it means that Firefox cannot map a character to a specific font, and you will need to install a font that covers the affected characters.

  In your case you are missing fonts and font support if it occurs on sites that use the IDEOGRAM.
  
  You will see something similar on Windows XP if you visit pages that use complex scripts (e.g. hindi and Arabic).
  
  Windows XP account very basic language support installed by default.
  
  There are many languages in the world and there are still languages that may require special fonts.
  
  You probably can't read, so it's your choice if you want to install a font for these pages or just accept the small squares with the hex code.

• Character set for the words

  Hello

  Does anyone know what charset LPX uses for the words when you export a project at noon?

  I have set in Hungarian language of OS X. The correct character set for the Hungarians should be ISO-8859-2 (Latin 2), yet when I export a logical project that uses these words at noon, the external drive is not displayed correctly the

  That is to say. o is displayed as Ăł or similar, any set of characters I use in other software

  P. S.

  I submitted a bug report, as this seems to be a bug, but there was no reaction yet on the report

  PS.

  Never mind, I just realized the character encoding used is UTF-8

• Character set OCR

  Greetings,

  I am very new to machine vision, I am creating a number plate recognition system, I trained each character set in the license plate in the formation of OCR and when im opening each individual character image, sound successfully converts it to a string, but to an entire image (of the plate) its does not (I'm '?') I tried using KING for selection of specific areas but does not work... I don't know what seems to be the problem please help.

  You must connect the region of interest to the vi IMAQ OCR read text 3.

  The following example shows how to use the screw of OCR:

  C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\LabVIEW\examples\Vision\2. Functions\OCR\OCR first Example.llb\OCR first Example.vi.

  With this example, you can even load your character set file and try on your images.

  I hope this helps.

• Character set for message conflict

  I am running Win XP Pro w/SP3 and IE7 and OE6 support. When you try to send the entire copy & pasted text of a long article in the NY Times, I get the "conflict message character set" window which offers three choices, send as, Send as Unicode, or cancel (and reissue). It is the first time that I've ever known this error message when sending by e-mail of this kind. Although I sent the message twice, once for each of the two formatting options, none of my many recipients received the message. Since there is clearly no Western European NON-ISO or character sets Windows in the body of my email, what other reasons might be incited the error message? I even tried to copy the text into Notepad, and then copy and paste in OE6 nothing is helping.

  The problem seems to have resolved itself and without apparent reason.

• Windows mail in vista giving the message "character set conflict."

  When I send an email, sometimes I get the error message "character set conflict."

  I use Windows Mail & Vista.

  In the options, I chose to send in HTML and Western European encoding

  Any suggestions?

  Are these replies to messages?  If Yes, it could be the original message has a different coding and that is why the conflict.  I think you can probably ignore it.

  It seems that you have an XMLType column based on a pattern of failure revalidation.

  It's strange, but fortunately, the error has nothing to do with the database character set.

  Just change your NLS session parameters:

• The character set issues

  I am facing an error when inserting value into a char (1) field. It can have values such as 'A', 'R' or 'P '. When I pass values of front-end application, oracle raises an error: "" ora-12899: value too large for the column "»

  I read some threads and changed to Char (1 byte) to Char (1 Char), but still it throws the same error. When I change Char (1 byte) to Char (2 bytes), it works! but stores the ASCII value IE 65 per 'A' how can I fix this problem?

  Here are the details of the DB

  NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET	AL16UTF16
  NLS_RDBMS_VERSION	11.2.0.3.0
  NLS_CHARACTERSET	AR8MSWIN1256

  Thank you

  Kind regards

  Try 'string value' instead of 'char Value. I want to verify that the issue is not caused by a problem with the binding of char type c#.

  In addition, the opinion of Barend: 'the character set of the database must match the code page of the operating system. Your code page should therefore 1256. "is false. It may be, for example, AL32UTF8. It can actually be any character set that supports the character generating a request. In the case of a .net application which is Unicode by design, AL32UTF8 is the recommended database charset. AR8MSWIN1256 is very good as long as you enter characters from 1256 Arabic code page.

  Thank you
