I'm attempting to use the URL Access Manager on 9.1 to retrieve web pages
using HTTP and HTTPS protocols. The URL Access Manager seems to work fine
on web pages which contain the standard Roman character set.
Unfortunately, though, it seems to have a problem when I attempt to
retrieve a web page that contains Chinese characters. (It may be it has a
problem with any non-Roman character set, but I'm only concerned with
Chinese for my app.).
When I attempt to access a web page which contains Chinese language
content, I run into a problem with the Mac Language Analysis kit. It
appears the URL Access Manager detects the Chinese characters in the web
page and automatically invokes the Language Analysis kit to do some sort
of interpretation of the character data. Unfortunately, if you're not
running on a Mac system that contains the Chinese Language Kit (or a
Chinese MacOS installation), the URL Access Manager fails the web page
retrieval with the error -6986, which means "can't find the specified
environment". I assume from this error that it's looking for the Chinese
language dictionary, etc. In our application, we don't need to have the
characters interpreted/translated, all we need to do is fetch the "raw"
web page.
So, two questions:
1. Is there any way to disable the operation of the Language Analysis kit
so we can avoid tripping up the URL Access Manager?
2. If there's no way to disable it, does anyone know where we can find
the current version of the Chinese Language Kit? I know Claris used to
sell it, but now it doesn't appear to have a home.
Thanks in advance for any help!
