Hi
I have a string, which I must convert into another string and have it
utf-8 encoded.
My current code looks like this;
Both vDataIn and vDataOut are Objects (parameters to a function-call),
and vDataIn contains a string, and that is also what vDataOut must
contain when I am done.
vDataOut = _
System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString( _
System.Text.Encoding.Convert(System.Text.Encoding. UTF8, _
System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, _
System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(vDataIn)))
But is is pretty ugly, if you ask me. Is there a more pretty way?

Hi Jan,
Till Jay B is not here (he lives I thought on the other side of the ditch
for us) you can search for the answer Jay Be has given in this newsgroup
about this.
But you go very far in his kind of solutions so I think he maybe will give
you the right answer.

Hi Jan,
I agree with you that there should be an overload of Convert which
takes a String and returns a String. A lot of people have queries about
encoding strings.
This is a bit neater, perhaps.
Dim utf8 As Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8
vDataOut = utf8.GetString (utf8.Convert (utf8, utf8,
utf8.GetBytes(vDataIn)))
However, both versions turn the vDataIn string into a UTF8 byte array
which is converted to a different copy od the same UTF8 byte array which
is then converted to a UTF string.
Shouldn't there be another encoding in there somewhere??
Dim utfS As Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.???? 'Src
Dim utfD As Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8 'Dest
vDataOut = utfD.GetString (utfD.Convert (utfS, utfD,
utfS.GetBytes(vDataIn)))
In both cases the utfX used with Convert doesn't matter as it's just
shorthand for the class - utfX.Convert = System.Text.Encoding.Convert.
