Printing a UTF-8 encoded XML file

Hi,

I am computing an XML file with all necessary tags, to be used in
dedicated XML software. I am computing it as a text file but don't know
how to do to save it to the disk UTF-encoded. strConv() with constant =
64 does not work, because the default code page of the system is UTF-16
and the XML editor I am using, XMLSpy, expects structured text when
importing text files (so it cannot import my tagged files).

The only way I have found out to convert to UTF-8: copy / paste the
text from a text editor into XMLSpy, and save. But the procedure would
be more elegant without that step. What I am looking for is:
automation.

Can anybody help with this, please?

Use the MSXML library to build your XML instead of building XML text directly
- this will save you a lot of pain the first time you need a quote mark or a
semicolon in your data, etc., and you can use the SAX writer to output using
whatever text encoding you need. The examples on-line at MSDN and Microsoft
Support will get you through the less obvious steps to do that.

I'm trying to write a program like hexel. I guess I could fish out the source for hexel and look at that, but for now I'm trying to figure out how I can do with with std::stringstream and std::string. I had something working with std::string. I simply treated it as an STL container, and iterated over its elements. The results were a bit confusing to me. Some of the stuff was printing out as 1 or 2 characters hex numbers, as I...

Hi, I've been reading through the threads on using the WebBrowser control in C# app's and how to print it's contents. I've got that much working. However, the big problem is I can't figure out how to detect when the printing is finished. I've read the article "Printing with the Internet Explorer WebBrowser Control" and it mentions some sample code in pwaitvb. This example pretty much useless to me because VB hides the how to do it.

Hello, I am trying to print a unicode character that's in Japanese. In my ASP.NET app (C#) I just set a char to that unicode character and use a response.write(). The char prints, but it is just a square. I set the culture of the .aspx page to japanese, and even though my browser already prints asian characters, I added the Japanese to it also. My web config has the utf-8 line in it. What should I do? Thanks,
