Release Date: Monday, January 01, 2007
Question:
I just upgraded to a new version of Red Hat Linux, and value marks (CHAR(253)), and I assume other system delimiters, no longer show up on my display. Not only do they not display, they eat the next character.
Solutions:
Well, I finally got my value marks back. After some digging on the net, I tried setting the locale environment variable:
export LC_CTYPE=iso_8859_1
and it worked! ISO 8859 is a standard for 8-bit character encodings.

About D3
The D3 DBMS embodies the best and most desired features for developers and users. It is simple in its structure but allows for complex definitions of data structures and program logic. The built-in development environment allows applications to be rapidly prototyped, developed, and modified on the spot. Custom applications and on-site enhancements are common in the D3 community. Everything required for development is already in D3, making D3 much more than a typical database environment. Site administration requires a fraction of the staff of other environments of the same size - a large proportion of sites running D3 do not have an IT staff.
D3 is developed and supported over the many environments indicated on these pages. All code and data easily migrates between environments without modification, so both developers and users can work on their platforms of choice.
Other products from TigerLogic include connectivity tools like FlashCONNECT for web, the D3 Class Libraries, the Open Systems File Interface for Oracle and other environments, and XML technologies to exchange data with other XML-compliant programs or environments.
