mysql对odbc的支持_在MySQL中对utf8mb4的ODBC连接器支持

I have been stuck up in this scenario.

My application is in C++ which connects to MySQL database 5.5.34 through MySQL odbc connector v5.2 Unicode Driver.

My tables were using the character set and collation properties 'utf-8'. To insert supplementary unicode characters, i changed it via

My table was initially created:

CREATE TABLE mytable (SAMPLECOLUMN text) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULTCHARSET=utf8;

changed to,

ALTER TABLE mytable CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;

After this, I am able to directly (not through my app) insert the supplementary characters into the column holding 'TEXT' data type.

The odbc connector crashes when it encounters supplementary characters.

The following are some of my my.ini configurations.

[mysql]

default-character-set=utf8

[mysqld]

character-set-server=utf8

default-storage-engine=INNODB

The query that i am trying to insert:

INSERT INTO mytable (SAMPLECOLUMN) VALUES ("乕乭𠁄𠁉乺丕");

any pointers/heads up would be great.

Also, tried using v5.3 Unicode MYSQL odbc connector and v1.0.5 MariaDB ODBC connector, still the same.

Thanks in advance.

The workaround here is to use MariaDB odbc connector to connect to MySQL database.

Make sure you set this in ODBC dsn and keep Connection Character Set empty

Starting v5.2 of MyODBC, SET NAMES has been deprecated. Hence the need to use MariaDB connector. Hope the supplementary character issue is fixed in MySQL odbc connector.
