Set this property to a supported character encoding value when using one of the Derby tools with a language not supported by your default system.
derby.ui.codeset=derbyval
where derbyval is a supported character encoding value, for example, UTF8 (see the table later in this topic).
The following command runs ij using the Japanese locale (derby.ui.locale=ja_JP) and Japanese Latin Kanji mixed encoding (derby.ui.codeset=Cp939):
java -Dderby.ui.locale=ja_JP -Dderby.ui.codeset=Cp939
-Dij.protocol=jdbc:derby:
org.apache.derby.tools.ij
The following table contains a sampling of character encodings. Supported encodings vary from product to product. For example, to see the full list of the character encodings that are supported by the Java Platform, Standard Edition 7 Software Development Kit, go to http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/intl/encoding.doc.html.
