Description:
the Chinese is not correctly supported, can't display Chinese correctly.

How to repeat:
when the data table's content has Chinese, it can't be display correctly.

version 1.0.0 is still not support Chinese.

the same thing happen to me.
In past, I use mysql 3.x connector/J 2.0. The chinese character display correctly.
After I update mysql to 4.0x connector/J to 3.0. The chinese character display wrong.(I use tomcat 5.x)only one of them is right(maybe 100 chinese word only 2 word display correctly)

And if I use mysqlCC to see the data in mysql 4.0x the character display correctly, in the other side, if I use MySQL query browser to query the database, all character wrong.

This problem has been fixed.  There still seems to be a slight problem with simplified Chinese but that may be an issue with the server.
