MySQLCC: Letters disappear

Hi,

thanks for the good work with MySQLCC! But...

In MySQLCC 0.9.1., when inserting text that contains foreign characters (e.=
g.
German Umlaute), not all the text is inserted into the database.

=46or example when I insert the following into a text or varchar field:
'Häuser is a German word'
the database then contains:
'Häuser is a German wor'

The number of characters lost at the end equals the number of special
characters. Perhaps because it is encoded in UTF8 (two bytes for these
chars)?

The problem occurs consistently in all databases, all text or varchar field=
s.

The problem did not occur in MySQLCC 0.8.9.

The problem does not occur when inserting text through the command line mys=
ql,
or through a Perl script.

My setup:
MySQLCC 0.9.1. Linux glibc2.3 binaries
MySQL 3.23.54 (from RedHat 8.0 distribution)
RedHat Linux 8.0
KDE 3.1.1.

(I don't use MySQL 4.xx yet because the available Perl-DBD-MySQL from RedHa=
t
requires libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0).

May I add a suggestion for MySQLCC: It would be enormously helpful if there=

was a "form" view showing a single entry like:
AU: Author
TI: Some interesting article
AB: This is the abstract of the article.
This would be useful for tables with text fields because you can't really s=
ee
much in the table view when the fields contain longer text.

Thanks
All the best
Stephan
