Hi,

in my project I have to insert Greek strings in a table in my database (MySql 4.1.6-GAMMA).

I use Hibernate to map those tables. However, whenever I try to save a String the String is not saved correctly in the Datatbase.

Do I have to do something special in the Hibernate or Java code?
Do I have to do something special in the MySQL DB table declaration?

Did you look at the Hibernate Quickstart? It shows how to create hibernate mappings for a table and then it inserts a new row into the database. It is also using just plain strings.

My problem was not just saving in the DB. But saving non-Latin strings in teh DB. However, the problem was not in the Hibernate mappings and the corresponding Java code, but in the configuration of the DB (MySQL). I had to select “utf8” as the DB character set.

Thanks for your reply
