Re: Unicode characters

Hi,

Here are a few lines of Obj-C that are, alas, not working.

{
NSString *s;
s=@"@"; //for those who won't read Unicode characters, this is
supposed to be the russian letter "you"
[texteRU setString:s];
}

Where am I mistaking ? I changed my PB prefs to Unicode UTF-8 encoding
and I get the Unicode letters from my keyboard by switching it to
"Unicode Entry" (from the International SysPrefs). I regularly do this
without any problem with TextEdit or Mail and I get the appropriate
character in PB's text editor. But when I launch the app, the rusian
character turns into a "-e" or any 8bit-ASCII string

Why doesn't it work ?

Mactov

The @"..." notation only permits 7-bit ASCII characters inside the string.
You need to think of another way of embedding Unicode text into your program
- there are a couple!

I was given the (one possible ?) answer by Clark S. Cox III and I now use s = [NSString stringWithUTF8String: "<put your string here>"];
and it works as I wanted
