What we need for this ?

Last 10 days we have work to include IBM unicode library into our Valentina
database engine kernel.

Now the only part where we have no unicode is ANTLR.
For now we try close eyes on this and do other work.

But in nearest time we very want find way to send UNIOCDE SQL Strings to our
ANTLR's SQL parser.

Yes, this is true. 7.1 is much better support standard.

Great!

So GCC already support Unicode for ANTLR ?
