We generate HTML from text in an Excel spreadsheet. The text contains unicode representations of international characters. When we use VBA to extract the text and output it to a file, it is written as ANSI (ASCII). Is there a way to preserve the unicode representation using VBA? Bruce ...
I'm trying to port over some of my old rails apps to Ruby 1.9 and I keep getting warnings about how "Ruby 1.9 doesn't support Unicode normalization yet." I've tracked it down to this function, but I'm getting about 20 warning messages per request: rails-2.3.5/activesupport/lib/active_support/inflector.rb def transliterate(string) wa...
I had some code before I moved to Unicode and Delphi 2009 that appended some text to a log file a line at a time: procedure AppendToLogFile(S: string); // this function adds our log line to our shared log file // Doing it this way allows Wordpad to open it at the same time. var F, C1 : dword; begin if LogFileName <> '' then begin ...

The history of Encoding Schemes / multiple Operating Systems and Endian-nes have led to a mess in terms of encoding all forms of string data (--i.e., all alphabets); for this reason protocol buffers only deals with ASCII or UTF-8 in its string types, and I can't see any polymorphic overloads that accept the C++ wstring. The question then...
I want to add the Greek letter omega (U+03A9) to a label I've placed on the form. I've already switched the encoding of the form, but how do I set the content of the label such that an omega appears and not UTF char code. So taking this XAML <Label Height="25">U+03A9</Label> I want the U+03A9 to be converted to an omega in the code ...
I was wondering if there were any way to define the default encoding for htmlentities(). I have a big project going that uses htmlentities calls all over the place, and was wondering if there was a simple way to set it from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 as the default character encoding, using something simple like init_set. Or possibly with a sep...
I get strings in different encodings (ID3 tags). I use e.g. new String( bytes, "UTF-16LE" ) to decode them. On my device (Motorola Milestone) and in the emulator, this works fine. But some users complained they get results like "T i t l e n a m e". I've tried the Sun codepage names instead (e.g. "UnicodeBigUnmarked"), with the same res...

How can I convert a decimal code of a character into a Unicode string in C++? For example, I give it the integer 241, that is the '' spanish letter, and I want to convert it to a Unicode string. ...
I'm surprised I can't find a simple tool for this. Basically, sometimes as a result of text munging, or using some piece of software, I end up with some text that has some troublesome characters - such as looking a lot like other characters, but being distinct from them. I'd like a tool (preferably online, javascript based) where I can p...
