<para>
|
||||
The view <literal>character_sets</literal> identifies the character
|
||||
sets available in the current database. Since PostgreSQL does not
|
||||
support multiple character sets within one database, this view only
|
||||
shows one, which is the database encoding.

Take note of how the following terms are used in the SQL standard:

<varlistentry>
|

<term>character repertoire</term>
|

<listitem>
|

<para>
|
||||
An abstract collection of characters, for
|
||||
example <literal>UNICODE</literal>, <literal>UCS</literal>, or
|
||||
<literal>LATIN1</literal>. Not exposed as an SQL object, but
|
||||
visible in this view.

|

<varlistentry>
|

<term>character encoding form</term>
|
||||
<listitem>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
An encoding of some character repertoire. Most older character
|
||||
repertoires only use one encoding form, and so there are no
|
||||
separate names for them (e.g., <literal>LATIN1</literal> is an
|
||||
encoding form applicable to the <literal>LATIN1</literal>
|
||||
repertoire). But for example Unicode has the encoding forms
|
||||
<literal>UTF8</literal>, <literal>UTF16</literal>, etc. (not
|
||||
all supported by PostgreSQL). Encoding forms are not exposed
|
||||
as an SQL object, but are visible in this view.

<term>character set</term>
|

<listitem>
|

<para>
|
||||
A named SQL object that identifies a character repertoire, a
|
||||
character encoding, and a default collation. A predefined
|
||||
character set would typically have the same name as an encoding
|
||||
form, but users could define other names. For example, the
|
||||
character set <literal>UTF8</literal> would typically identify
|
||||
the character repertoire <literal>UCS</literal>, encoding
|
||||
form <literal>UTF8</literal>, and some default collation.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
</listitem>
|
||||
</varlistentry>
|
||||
</variablelist>
|
||||
|
||||
You can think of an <quote>encoding</quote> in PostgreSQL either as
|
||||
a character set or a character encoding form. They will have the
|
||||
same name, and there can only be one in one database.
