Hi
In one of the data files that I have , I am seeing these characters
\xed\xa0\xa0 . They seem to break the xsl.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Extra content at the end of the document
XML/XSL Error: </data><data ><![CDATA[ í Pls advice
----------------------------------------------------------------
this seems to break the libxml2/libxslt
is this a unicode utf-16 surrogate pair ?
for displaying it on xml/xsl, should I extract only \xa0?
since this is hingher than 00-7f range can i just strip it?
under what condition the encoding software put this string in?
thanks for help, 3 2008

Yes and no. This is the UTF-8 encoding of U+D820, which is a high
surrogate code point. So yes. It's not yet a pair; there would have to
be a second such code point. So no.
Furthermore, in UTF-8, you should never ever have encoded surrogate
codes; instead, whoever generated the UTF-8 should have combined the
two surrogate code point into a single coded character, and should
have encoded *that* character. So no - this byte sequence isn't
even valid UTF-8.

You should tell your parser to reject the file as ill-formed.

Depending an what you want to achieve: sure! It will modify
the meaning of the bytes, of course.
under what condition the encoding software put this string in?
If it has a bug.

Martin
thanks very much for the info, it really helped
we are using the text from file to display on webpage and we have a
method for conversion the parsed data to utf-8 and then displaying, all
the data looks fine after parsing except the
surrogate pair,
since i can not guess what it was supposed to be , is it ok to strip it
using regex re.complie(' [\xed|\xa0] ')?

As martin said: that alters the meaning of the bytes. If that has to bother
you or not, that's yours to decide. If for example you stripped all vocals
from a text, it still might be comprehensible for most people, so if vocals
bother you for whatever reason, remove them.

I'm implementing RFC 3491 in .NET, and running into a strange issue.
Step 1 of RFC 3491 is performing a set of mappings dicated by tables B.1 and

I'm having trouble with the following mappings though, and it seems like a
shortcoming of the .NET framework:

I've got a big unicode character, and i'm trying to build it into a string.
The unicode character is in the range "0x10400", so it's going to require a
surrogate pair.
I've been through all the logic to iterate over strings that already have
these pairs in them, but how do I encode this Unicode Character INTO the
string? The string is UTF-8 encoded, but none of the things I've trided
using the encoders seems to work right...

Is it correct that Unicode characters with code points above 0x10FFFF are not supported by C#
I have a hard time believing this since it would eliminate some Asian languages. If it is true, is there a workaround? Do other .NET languages support code points > 0x10FFFF
I appreciate any comments
Thanks

Hello,
I'm writing an class library that I imagine people from different countries
might be interested in using, so I'm considering what needs to be provided
to support foreign languages, including asian languages (chinese, japanese,
korean, etc).
First of all, strings will be passed to my class methods, some of which
based on the language (and on the encoding) might contain characters that
require more that a single byte.

Hi all,
can someone tell me difference between unicode and utf 8 or utf 18 and

As was seen in another thread, there's a great deal of confusion
with regard to surrogates. Most programmers assume Python's unicode
type exposes only complete characters. Even CPython's own functions
do this on occasion. This leads to different behaviour across
platforms and makes it unnecessarily difficult to properly support all
languages.
To solve this I propose Python's unicode type using UTF-16 should have
gaps in its index,...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
