2.21 Breaking Changes
This release rolls back the fix introduced for incident #4247:

# 4247 Using Extended Characters for Database Identifiers Non-English Windows Causes Error

If you are:
  • using the built-in, binary UNI collation with the case-insensitive switch (UNI_CI) with your applications/servers,


  • targeting non-English languages,


  • currently using 2.20 Build 1 with your applications/servers,
then you should make sure to update your applications/servers to 2.21 in order to avoid any issues with your databases.
