RE: Transcoding

[Flashner Amit <Am...@comverse.com>]

Hi Assaf,
If you use the transcode which returns a char array you get a byte per char
and miss the real unicode value for the character.
You should get the XMLCh* value which is unicode ucs-2 (wide char), and
trasnform it to byte array (UTF-8 or whatever) using win32's
WideCharToMultiByte .

Good luck,
Amit.

Subject: Transcoding


Hello,

I have a problem parsing a memory buffer that contains Hebrew characters.
Transcoding doesn't work properly - the transcode() method calls a Windows
function that returns an error. I'm using VC++ 6 on a Win2K machine.

Is there a way I can set the codepage I want the string to be transcoded to?
Is there a way of giving the parser a real widechar string, and if not, why?
(I thought XML was supposed to be fully widechar)

Thanks in advance,
	Assaf Tzur-El.
