I just found a comment, that windows UNICODE is UCS-2. What do you think
about the following specific code for Windows to convert from the
decoded
ANSI input to UTF-8:
// Convert file ANSI to Windows UNICODE (AKA UCS-2)
MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP,0,....);
// now convert from Windows UNICODE (AKA UCS-2) to UTF-8
WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8,0,....);
on linux we could use iconv, or whatever.
Where are you proposing to put this? In the Perl code?
Nope into ssphys. I just experimented with this and some russian text:
Take the following function:
std::string ACPToUTF8 (const char* pBuffer, int nLength = -1)
{
// Convert file from ACP to UTF-8 via the Windows UNICODE (AKA UCS-2)
int nWideLength = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0,pBuffer,nLength,NULL,0);
wchar_t* pWideBuffer = new wchar_t[nWideLength];
MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0,pBuffer,nLength,pWideBuffer,nWideLength);
int nUtf8Length = WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8,
0,pWideBuffer,nWideLength,NULL,0, NULL, NULL);
char* pUtf8Buffer = new char[nUtf8Length];
WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8,
0,pWideBuffer,nWideLength,pUtf8Buffer,nUtf8Length, NULL, NULL);
std::string utf8 (pUtf8Buffer, nUtf8Length);
delete [] pWideBuffer;
delete [] pUtf8Buffer;
return utf8;
}
I have cyrillic text in the codepage 855. If I set the codepage to 855
before calling this function, my text will be converted into utf8. I
have loaded the resulting XML file in a UTF8 aware editor and the
results looked good.
