Re: how to insert hex data into UTF-8 column?

this post has a lot of good info.
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=4fddf9b9-b8d3-4ba3-9824-476d6a2efa48

do not follow why DB2 would want to translate hex data. The point of hex
is to bypass any character translation.

I'm guessing that by default it is expecting the hex values to be
EBCDIC. This works:

insert into repcat52 ( catnum, catname, desc, desc_utf)
values( 1, 'WAVE', x'818283F1F2F3',
x'F1F2F3');


I am looking to insert some multibyte UTF-8 characters. like x'C383'.
