Hello,
I'm trying to write a converter for converting between Big5 and UTF-8,
but I want to make sure a few facts before writing.
1) I know that by default .NET store string in unicode. Would there be
any problem if I store Big5 characters in the string? Or could I set the
codepage setting for individual string?
2) There are basically three types of Unicode scheme - UTF-7, UTF-8 and
UCS-2. Which one does the default Unicode setting refer to?
3) Same as 1) but this time is for char[].
I'm writing this because the webpage I'm writing is in Unicode, it
stores data to MySQL database which store data in Big5, and we also have a
backend written in VB6 which would be nearly rewritting if need to change to
Unicode. Here, I plan to translate the data immediately when read from the
database and vice versa so no other existing part need to be changed. I'm
using LibEx with MyODBC for accessing MySQL.
This post will be crossposted to
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.intern ationalization. (The i18n group seems more
appropiate, but as I'm also asking how strings are stored in .NET
applications, I think it's also good to post in here.)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Whether for the questions or
for a better way to fatch the data so no manual translation is needed. :)
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lau Lei Cheong

1) you can set application encoding in web.config :
<globalizatio n
requestEncoding ="utf-8"
responseEncodin g="utf-8"
/>
Thanks for the information. :)
2) you can convert from one encoding to others by using
Encoding.Conver t Method :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de.../en-us/cpref/h
tml/frlrfSystemText EncodingClassCo nvertTopic1.asp
It's pity that my attempt to follow this has failed. The modified function
only return question marks to the database.
Seems more modifications is needed for converting multibyte characters.
I've worked so far success to convert unicode string to byte array(big5 code
equivalent). Now I need to convert it back to string. Any idea on that?
Thanks a lot.
Hi,
send me mail. i've back at work sample code that dose it for hebrew
visual to unicode.

When applied to a string literal, is the sizeof operator supposed to return the size of the string
(including nul), or the size of a pointer?
For example, assuming a char is 1 byte and a char * is 4 bytes, should the following yield 4, 5, of
something else? (And, if something else, what determines the result?)
char x = "abcd";
printf( "%d\n", sizeof( x ) );

char s = "This string literal";
or
char *s= "This string literal";
Both define a string literal. Both suppose to be read-only and not to be
modified according to Standard. And both have type of "const char *".
Right? But why does the compiler I am using allow s to be modified, instead
of generating compile error?

Continuing the discussion about abstract data types, in this

It stores character strings, and resizes itself to accommodate

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
