SQL_SetCharset

Syntax

native bool:SQL_SetCharset(Handle:h, const charset[]);

Description

Sets the character set of the current connection.
Like SET NAMES .. in mysql, but stays after connection problems.

Parameters

h Database or connection tuple Handle.
charset The character set string to change to.

Note

If a connection tuple is supplied, this should be called before SQL_Connect or SQL_ThreadQuery.

Note

The change will remain until you call this function with another value.

Note

This native does nothing in SQLite.
Example: "utf8", "latin1"

Return

True, if character set was changed, false otherwise.
