Hello
My apologies if such kind of
question is too silly, but I browse quickly through resources\FAQ and did not
find anything useful for me…
I’m having bunch of files that are
in Cyrillic charset and I need to transfer then to some device that is not
capable to show such carset (don’t have appropriate font).
So, I’ve decided to provide
transliteration mechanism, i.e. convert chars from Cyrillic to Latin. The
language that I’m going to use is Java.
Can you guys point me on some
useful resource to do so or give me some recommendation?
=================
I’ve made some preliminary
prototyping, and results appear to be weird.
1 I provide a mapping from a char
(lets say Cyrillic) to its Latin equivalent in sense of transliteration
2 Take the flat file and process
it (convert from Cyrillic to Latin)
Sometimes its working, sometimes
its not…
Apparently when I run simple
things from my IDE it works fine, but when I’m trying to do the same in
standalone mode – it skips processing.
I was hunting down the problem and
this is the difference I see:
When I do call like this
Character.UnicodeBlock.of(toProcess) for next char to transliterate, it shows
From IDE -
CYRILLIC
Standalone -
LATIN_1_SUPPLEMENT
So, I guess the way flat file is
read makes big difference… I’m willing to blame some difference in system
properties settings for to such calls…
Can you help me with pointers to
make it the way it should be?
Thanks,
Dennis
