I have an XML document (WML, actually), that has this string in it: Fran?ais
Note the C is the squigly c that is not in ascii. It's in Latin1, and it's represented in hex by E7. I know this because I did an hexdump on the file, and that was the byte where the character is. When I parse this with UnRep_Throw set, I get this exception. Fatal Error: An exception occured! Type:TranscodingException, Message:Unicode char 0x6829 is not representable in encoding When I parse it with UnRep_RepChar, I get back "Frans". I know that it's just eating the two characters after the strange one, because I tried "Fran? ais" and got "Franais". Since it's WML, I tried specifying the character as "Français", which worked great. I can't gaurantee that no content provider is going not going to put Latin1 characters in their content, so what can I do to make sure that the transcoder can represent the strange character. I'm creating my transcoder like this: transcoder = XMLPlatformUtils::fgTransService->makeNewTranscoderFor("ISO-8859-1", resCode, 8192); and calling the transcodeTo method like this: transcoder->transcodeTo(toTranscode, (unsigned int)XMLString::stringLen(toTranscode), bufToFill, 8192, bytesEaten, unRepOpts); Thanks for any help you can give me. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
