Research direction
Reproduce the query SELECT 1 AS 件数 in Go-based sqlcmd v1.8.2 on Windows with code page 65001, then compare the output with legacy ODBC-based sqlcmd.exe. No source file or test is named; done means the Japanese column name displays correctly and a regression test covers this case.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Bug: Japanese column names are garbled in Go-based sqlcmd output
Environment
- OS: Windows 11 Pro
- sqlcmd version: Go-based sqlcmd v1.8.2
- Terminal: cmd.exe (code page 65001)
- Font: MS Gothic / Consolas
Reproduction
SELECT 1 AS 件数
Expected
The column name "件数" should be displayed correctly.
Actual
The column name is garbled (e.g., "縺｡繧峨↑").
Notes
This issue does not occur in the legacy ODBC-based sqlcmd.exe.
Even with UTF-8 code page and proper fonts, the output is incorrect.
This affects Japanese users significantly and should be considered a localization bug.
Please consider addressing this issue or providing a workaround.
