no zuo no die系列，来自于pg的wiki。 这是第一部分，关于数据库编码，不要使用SQL_ASCII字符集编码。原因是： >While the name suggests that this encoding is in some meaningful way related to ASCII, it is not. Instead, it simply forbids the use of NUL bytes. More importantly, SQL_ASCII means "no conversions" for the purpose of all encoding conversion functions. That is to say, the original bytes are simply treated as being in the new encoding, subject to validity checks, without any regard for what they mean. Unless extreme care is taken, an SQL_ASCII database will usually end up storing a mixture of many different encodings with no way to recover the original characters reliably. PostgreSQL中的SQL_ASCII类似于Oracle的单字节字符集如ISO8859P1，可存储除0x00外（Oracle ISO8859P1字符集可存储0x00）的其他所有字节码（即0x01-0xFF）。 下面的实验，创建SQL_ASCII的数据库，分别通过Windows和Linux客户端访问数据库并插入数据来验证不同客户端字符编码的情况下，SQL_ASCII字符集下的数据存储方式。 **创建数据库** 使用create database创建数据库 ``` [local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# \help create database Command: CREATE DATABASE Description: create a new database Syntax: CREATE DATABASE name [ [ WITH ] [ OWNER [=] user_name ] [ TEMPLATE [=] template ] [ ENCODING [=] encoding ] [ LC_COLLATE [=] lc_collate ] [ LC_CTYPE [=] lc_ctype ] [ TABLESPACE [=] tablespace_name ] [ ALLOW_CONNECTIONS [=] allowconn ] [ CONNECTION LIMIT [=] connlimit ] [ IS_TEMPLATE [=] istemplate ] ] URL: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-createdatabase.html [local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# create database asciidb with encoding=sql_ascii; ERROR: new encoding (SQL_ASCII) is incompatible with the encoding of the template database (UTF8) HINT: Use the same encoding as in the template database, or use template0 as template.
