..NET GetBytes() and GetString() didn't work right with UTF-8 charset.

My following code prove that...

string Data = "UTF-8 string"; // <-- Insert some *long* UTF-8 string
byte[] DataBytes = System.Text.Enc oding.UTF8.GetB ytes(Data);
string BackConvert = System.Text.Enc oding.UTF8.GetS tring(DataBytes );

System.IO.Strea mWriter File = System.IO.File. CreateText("tes t.txt");
File.Write(Data + "\n" + BackConvert);
File.Close();

Wait a lil, see the attached text file, open it with your browser and
set browser text encoder to UTF-8, you'll see the different...

Um, I doubt it, to be honest. You'll need to give us a sample string to
show us what you mean.

To check that the strings are the same, you could just use

Console.WriteLi ne (Data==BackConv ert);

I doubt it, too... but I did try and it didn't work... in the last post
I forgot to attach the result with sample string, my fault...

In this post I attached the result file of the test, and I tried to
System.Console. WriteLine(Data == BackConvert) before, it give me a False.

You can try it yourself... use the first line in the attached file as
the sample string...

You haven't actually really attached a file - just cut and paste it.
Please email me an example and I'll have a look at it.

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.
