How to detect if the text file you are accessing/opening is ansi or unicode format?
Posted on November, 20 2014 - 3:04 PM
Hi

When you load it in a buffer variable, the first 2 bytes contains a
specific value in UNICODE mode. Be careful that there are several
variants of Unicode (little endian, big endian...), so there may be
several different header value to test.

You can of course check that out by using an Hexadecimal editor on your
files

Best regards

I work with Windev Mobile setIN[x]ANSIGLOBALproject

I had to make this overallProcedurefor making the identification was coming up theRETURNof theHTTPRequestwith UnicodeORANSIINHTTPGetResult,I stopped using the standard command after theHTTPRequestANDIUsemineANDhave had success.

Using my exampleAboveProcedure:

url="br.linkedin.com/in/adrianoboller"

ok isboolean=HTTPRequest(Url)

IFok=True

RETURNisstring=WS_Android_IOS_HTTPGetResult()

END

Same Technique

IFStringCount(bufResHTTP, “ISO-8859-1,IgnoreCase) =0THEN
RESULT=UTF8ToString(TextBuffer)
ELSE
RESULT=AnsiToUnicode(TextBuffer)
END

Change your project globally to ANSI

P (Big Yellow) -> popup Mouse Right -> Project Description -> Down Button: [ DESCRIBING THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION ] -> Guia Aba: UNICODE -> Check [x] ANSI -> OK -> OK

>Re-test code... ok

If you need to migrate your ansi file to unicode, then there is a manual method where you have to configure your ansi to your unicode via Import/export feature and then import your ansi file. You can also transfer your file through ansi To unicode Migration Tool and transfer your data easily.

hi,
I tried to use your procedure for maneg a respons from a websevice that has been giving me problems for some time to IOS, your solution works in the emulator but not on a real IOS smartphone.
Have you ever tested it in production?

Procedure WS_Android_IOS_HTTPGetResult()

// Variable
bufResHTTP is Buffer
sHTTPResult is string

// Retrieves the result of the query
bufResHTTP = HTTPGetResult(httpResult)

// Result in UTF8 em iOS Apple
IF IniOSMode() = True OR IniOSSimulatorMode() = True OR IniOSEmulatorMode() = True
IF StringCount(bufResHTTP, “ISO-8859-1”, IgnoreCase) = 0 THEN
sHTTPResult = UTF8ToString(bufResHTTP)
ELSE
sHTTPResult = AnsiToUnicode(bufResHTTP)
END
ELSE IF InAndroidMode() = True OR InAndroidSimulatorMode() = True OR InAndroidEmulatorMode() = True
// Result in Android
sHTTPResult = bufResHTTP
END

RESULT sHTTPResult


I haven't found a solution to my problem for months and your help would be greatly appreciated.

>thanks
