[Firebird-devel] Malformed string error on Firebird 2.5

[YannisP]

Hi all,

I am using / testing Firebird-2.5.0.24118-0 on a win 2003 server and when I
try to compile a trigger that contains green (WIN 1253) characters I get a
"Malformed string" no matter of the client prgram I am using (I have tried
IBExpert & FlameRobin). There is no such problem with FB 2.1, and I do not
have any problem inserting greek characters in the database.

select octet_length(_none 'á') from rdb$database returns 1, and the database
is ODS version 11.2 and created with DEFAULT CHARACTER SET NONE

Please help

TIA

Yannis
