What I mean is that in
lingucomponent/source/hyphenator/altlinuxhyph/hyphen/hyphenimp.cxx we have
OUString sWord
OString sConverted(sWord, eEnc)
and then a loop effectively of
for (i = 0; i < sConverted.getLength(); ++i)
{
... sWord[i];
}
i.e. it is assumed that an index into the 8bit encoded string can be used to
index the same equivalent character in the unicode string. But that isn't true
for UTF-8 or other multi-byte encodings.
In practice this means that the sample attached Kannada hyphenation rules for
the sample attached document in an UTF-8 hyphenation format gets whacked out
values and other on-screen weirdness.
Attached is a patch which I think does the right thing and builds up the unicode
hyphenation string from the 8bit string correctly, and maps the 8bit positions
and maps the 8bit positions to unicode ones.
For my Kannada example it seems to do the right thing.
