Hi to all,
i'm still trying to put the some text with
'gtk_text_buffer_set_text' to a 'gtk_text_view', but i can't succeed so far (due
to ä and similar characters).
my last try was something like this:
for (int z=0 ; z<lenghtofstring ;z++){
if ( (char)pstring[z] > (char) '~' ) pstring[z] = '~';
}
I just tried to replace everything which
is higher than the ~ to become a ~. I thought it would just replace stuff like
this äÑô with ~.
Anyway it does not work and it would not be the
best way anyway i guess.
As far as i figured out I should use
:
g_convert or g_locale_to_utf8
( gchar *) baus = g_convert(buffl, lengh_to_translate,"ascii","utf-8",
u, l, erro);
or
(gchar *) haus =g_locale_to_utf8((gchar*)
buffl, lengh_to_translate, u, l,
erro);
So both did not work unfortunately.
So in the first case, i guess 'ascii' is wrong
anyway.
The text i want to show was produced on MS windows
with simple texteditor like notepad, and was written afterwards with a
ostrstream to a buffer. The only problem is when there are stuff like ç in the
text. I guess it's ASCII text. US-ASCII..hmm
Sorry it's the first time i'm in conctact with
stuff like this, it seems i can't help myself so far nor have i found something
for newbies in the archives.
I would be glad when anybody could say me where to
find a piece of code from which i could learn, or where to educate myself or
give me some hints.
thanks a lot
