MySQLDump: malformed trail byte or out of range char

Hello,

I created a MySQL Database with unicode support. In TMyConnection I set Options.Charset=utf8 and UseUnicode=True. Everything works fine.
But when I want to export the data with the TMyDump-component I get the "malformed trail byte or out of range char" Exception. I am using Delphi 7 Enterprise and MySQL server 5.0.51a.
Is this a general unicode problem or is TMyDump unable to handle unicode?

Best regards, M.Warreyn

Sometimes TMyDump handles Unicode incorrectly. We have fixed this problem. This fix will be included in the next MyDAC build.
