POL streams don't have built in encoding support unlike .NET streams. You should read UTF-8 specification and implement custom conversion routine. Of course, this conversion won't work for some Unicode characters that can't be represented in Palm OS. Such characters can be replaced with "?" placeholder.
In fact, first 127 characters in Unicode table match to corresponding standard ASCII characters, so UTF-8 to Palm conversion can be simplified if you are not going to support national languages. ______________________________________________ Best regards, Maks Pyatkovskiy > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:bounce-palm-dev- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 3:25 PM > To: Palm Developer Forum > Subject: Handling UTF-8 data > > > Hello all, > > I have a wireless 802.11 application that receives UTF-8 XML data from a > servlet (Tomcat). > > I am using POL.. > > I have heard you can display UTF-8 data (to display diacritics/symbols > that are not available in the ASCII set). > > How do I display UTF-8 data?
