Hi,

we have troubles with German umlauts (e.g.: äüÖ) using the Postgresql JDBC
driver form the 7.1.2 distribution... already tried to debug our Java
software but it seems that the database driver modifies the umlauts in any
way - a debug before any INSERT or after a SELECT query shows that the
umlaut "ü" for example gets lost on the way though the JDBC driver...

So e.g. the attribute city='München' gets "M\?nchen" when testing the JDBC
driver using a simple Java program.

Any idea what happens?

Best regards,
Alex T.
