The character set does not get imported form DB.
This was working this way in older versions,
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("show
variables like 'character_set'", this);
But the variable in newer mysql versions is
character_set_client, so it shoud be
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("show
variables like 'character_set_client'", this);
I am not sure if this is fixed in newer versions ( i am
using 0.71 cause could not find any newer src )
P.S. this is in file Connection.cs
