[fpc-pascal] Please Help with inifile in WinCE (ReadSectionValues into stringlist)
Hi I have a small translation file (pure ASCII DOS text) written in Win32. I copied it to the emulator with Activesync. The file contains one sections ('f') in this format [f] 'Language||idioma'. (etc.) (i.e. the English test on the 1st half, the Spanish translation on the 2nd half) In the WinCE test program run on the emulator, I read it this way: IniFile := TIniFile.Create(s) ; tl:=TStringList.Create; try inifile.ReadSectionValues('f',tL); for i:=0 to tl.Count-1 do begin tl[i]:=ConvertEncoding(tl[i],GuessEncoding(tl[i]),EncodingAnsi); memo1.lines.add(tl[i]); Now all works fine when the (2nd half) Spanish part has only english characters. But when there are spanish special characters (accented A or O and similar) the tl[] line is not written to memo1 at all. I assume the inifile in Wince is widestring UTF* encoded, so i tried to convert it to ansi encoding but AFTER the tl string list is already populated. Is this the problem? If so, what should I ReadSectionValues into different form TStringList? If the problem is other, can anyone give me clue?

I think this is a Lazarus subject but: tl[i]:=ConvertEncoding(tl[i],'iso88591','utf8'); Because the ini file has spanish text so the source encoding should be iso-8859-1 and target encoding should be UTF8 to be displayed in a memo box. -- Best regards, JoshyFun ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
