Re: Greek symbols: msg#00013

java.enhydra.xmlc

Subject: Re: Greek symbols

What's your locale when you compile your program? Java's I/O rules assume the input files is in the default locale's encoding while it reads it. You can use the --html:encoding option or <html encoding="SHIFT_JIS"/> in the options.xml to overwrite the option for HTML files.

However, your particular problem is with Java compilation rather then XMLC. Make sure your locale is set to Greek before you compile or use native2ascii on your source codes before compile.

Hello,
 
    Does anyone have an idea how to get greek symbols in the XMLC generated code?
    I can't get it to work...
 
Example
 
    page.setTextName("Ονομα")
 
gives as result ?????
 
but that should be down to IntelliJ I use because everything I type in there in Greek gets tranformed to ?????
 
now when I read greek signs from a text file :
 
    page.setTextName(br.readLine())
 
i get thisÿþŸ½¿¼±
 
next thing when doing it this way:
 
    page.setTextName("&Omicron;&nu;&omicron;&mu;&alpha;")
 
the ampersand get changed to &amp;  with the result being:ÿþ&Omicron;&nu;&omicron;&mu;&alpha
 
so, can anyone give me some pointers on how to deal with this problem...
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Stefan Koulouris
