Description:
------------
I have a problem storing UTF data on MSSQL using pdo_dblib.
In the following query:
   EXECUTE p_proc id = :id, @name = :name
I cannot bind the ":name" param using the N'string' notation required by SQL Server (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239530)
You cannot get around this by typing:
   EXECUTE p_proc id = :id, @name = N:name
because binding fails on N:name

The same problem happens with qoute function - it allways quotes with '' a never with N'' - perhaps there should be a new param like PDO::PARAM_STR to tell that with deal with a Unicode value?

Hi,
-you should use utf8_decode to convert UTF8 character to ISO-8859-1(latin-1) character
- i use this function with MySQL, that's work :D

This will require a re-write of the PDO_DBLIB to allow the use of the "encoding" 
option. After that, all queries and parameter will require you to encode them 
before binding with utf8_encode(). You will also have to decode them using 
utf8_decode() when returned from the server. I was working to bring full Unicode 
support to the driver, but it would have broken so much code I had to rethink the 
strategy.

This is a limitation of how PDO handles types.

I implemented a hackish solution here:
https://github.com/wayfair/php-src/commit/0190df6da7a4c39b235a75161fdc880acde5c28f

It's not clean enough for general use, but could work in a pinch if you're willing to do a custom build.

I sketched out a better solution here:

I posted an RFC to address this issue:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/extended-string-types-for-pdo

It's currently being voted on.

Closing, as the RFC was accepted. This functionality will be available in PHP 7.2:
