I am attempting to create a list in XSL-FO using a square bracket. I have been able to get it working using the standard unicode bullet character (•) but I just can't seem to get it working for square brackets. I have tried using ■, but that does not seem to work. It is important that i can get the square bullets working bec...
Hi I was trying to output unicode string to a console with iostreams and failed. I found this: Using unicode font in c++ console app and this snippet works. SetConsoleOutputCP(CP_UTF8); wchar_t s[] = L"èéøÞǽлљΣæča"; int bufferSize = WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8, 0, s, -1, NULL, 0, NULL, NULL); char* m = new char[bufferSize]; WideChar...
I'm trying to parse an XML file (OSM data) with expat, and there are lines with some Unicode characters that expat can't parse: <tag k="name" v="абвгдежзиклмнопр�?туфхцчшщьыъ�?ю�?�?БВГДЕЖЗИКЛМ�?ОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЬЫЪЭЮЯ" /> <tag k="name" v="Cin\x8e? Rex" /> (XML file encoding in the opening line is "UTF-8") The file is quite old, and there...
This may be a niche question but I'm working with ICU to format currency strings. I've bumped into a situation that I don't quite understand. When using the MesssageFormat class, is it possible to get access to the NumberFormat object it uses to format currency strings. When you create a NumberFormat instance yourself, you can specify a...
Based on the link below, I'm confused as to whether the Lua programming language supports Unicode. http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaUnicode It appears it does but has limitations. I simply don't understand, are the limitation anything big/key or not a big deal? ...
I have an input field in a form. Upon pushing submit, I want to validate to make sure the user entered non-latin characters only, so any foreign language characters, like Chinese among many others. Or at the very least test to make sure it does not contain any latin characters. Could I use a regular expression for this? What would be th...
We want to use Unicode with Delphi 2009 and Interbase, and found that to switch the character encoding from WIN1252 to UNICODE_FSS or UTF8 we first have to replace all instances of TStringField with TWideStringField in all datamodules. For around 60 datamodules, we can not simply do this over one weekend. I can see only two options for a...
Hi! I have non-ascii chars in velocity template files. And when processed they are garbled. The files are saved in UTF-8 encoding and response header contentType is also set to text/html;charset=UTF-8. What else can be done? ...
Hi, I have a header file in C++/CLI project, which contains some strings in different languages. arabic, english, german, chinese, french, japanese etc... I have a second project written in C#. Here I access the strings stored in the header file of the C++/CLI project. The encoding of the header file is Unicode - Codepage 1200 or UTF...
I tried to find this in the relevant RFC, IETF RFC 3986, but couldn't figure it. Do URIs for HTTP allow Unicode, or non-ASCII of any kind? Can you please cite the section and the RFC that supports your answer. NB: For those who might think this is not programming related - it is. It's related to an ISAPI filter I'm building. A...
Hi, Has anyone ported "Snoop Component Suite version 3.0" by http://www.netlab.co.kr To Delphi 2010 ? Its a great WinPCap library. Just doesn't work on Delphi 2010 (unicode) Thanks ...
There are Python code available for existing algorithms for normal string searching e.g. Boyer-Moore Algorithm. I am looking to use this on Chinese characters and it doesn't seem like the same implementation would work. What would I go about doing in order to make the algorithm work on Chinese characters? I am referring to this: http://...
C# doesn't want to put Unicode characters on buttons. If I put \u2129 in the Text attribute of the button, the button displays the \u2129, not the Unicode character, (example - I chose 2129 because I could see it in the font currently active on the machine). I saw this question before, link text, but the question isn't really answered, ...
In google translate web site if i type any word in English and select any other foreign language, it show the exact word in the foreign language. I want the unicode value of that foreign characters. How to get that? ...
I've got a database in MSSQL that I'm porting to SQLite/Django. I'm using pymssql to connect to the database and save a text field to the local SQLite database. However for some characters, it explodes. I get complaints like this: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x97 in position 1916: ordinal not in range(128) Is ...
I need to do in Python 2.4 (yes, 2.4 :-( ). I've got a plain string object, which represents some text encoded with UTF-8. It comes from an external library, which can't be modified. So, what I think I need to do, is to create an Unicode object using bytes from that source object, and then convert it to some other encoding (iso-8859-2,...
I would like to only work with UTF8. The problem is I don't know the charset of every webpage. How can I detect it and convert to UTF8? <?php $url = "http://vkontakte.ru"; $ch = curl_init($url); $options = array( CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true, ); curl_setopt_array($ch, $options); $data = curl_exec($ch); // $data = magic($data); p...
I am working through the Django RSS reader project here. The RSS feed will read something like "OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — James Harden let". The RSS feed's encoding reads encoding="UTF-8" so I believe I am passing utf-8 to markdown in the code snippet below. The em dash is where it chokes. I get the Django error of "'ascii' codec can'...
I'm trying to make my project compile under GCC (Visual Studio compiles it flawlessly). I have a custom assert function which throws a wstring message. A part of it is the _ FUNCTION_ macro, which I "unicodize" using the WIDEN macro from MSDN #define WIDEN2(x) L ## x #define WIDEN(x) WIDEN2(x) It compiles okay in MSVC, but it prints ...
Hi guys, I'm working on a WebDAV implementation for PHP. In order to make it easier for Windows and other operating systems to work together, I need jump through some character encoding hoops. Windows uses ISO-8859-1 in it's HTTP request, while most other clients encode anything beyond ascii as UTF-8. My first approach was to ignore t...
