[SNMP4J] Re:SNMP4J Digest, Vol 59, Issue 15 Does snmp4j support Unicode chars in trap?

[Frank Fock]

Hi Eternal,

The MIB specification has to define which character
set to use. To support all languages, UTF-8 (UTF-16)
should be used.

You cannot recognize which character set is used
by the data send - you can guess, but in many cases
the guess will be wrong.

Since Java uses UTF internally, you will be set if
the MIB specifies UTF.

Best regards,
Frank
