At the time of fetching records of a column ("emp_name") in Arabic format from Oracle database table, getting question mark instead of Arabic name (??????) when I fetch records like: String emp_name = rs.getString("EMP_NAME"); But If I changed the above line like: String emp_name = new String(rs.getString("EMP_NAME").getBytes("UTF-8")); getting Arabic name perfectly. But in some Arabic names I found garbage characters mentioned below: "احمد عبدالحليم سي�? ابراهيم محمود"

How can I eliminate the �? (garbage character)? Is there any Unicode other than UTF-8 which supports the Arabic name perfectly or will I need to modify the above code to solve the issue?

  • To my knowledge, utf-8 supports enough arabic characters. I think some connectors might be replaced with the garbage character. You might be good off by iterating through the string and removing that character – ihsan Dec 14 '21 at 07:36

  • Is the client fetching the records set up correctly as far a locale? What platform is the client running on? Please [edit] your question to include the platform tag such as [windows] and add what software version of the platform is, such as Windows 10. – Mark Stewart Dec 14 '21 at 16:38
