Re: HTTPAPI and CCSID.....
Hello Søren,
I tried parsing your name, and I also tried parsing Søndersø, and both
of them worked successfully for me.
Just FYI: HTTP_setCCSIDs() is not related to the XML parsing. The
HTTP_setCCSIDs() routine controls how data is translated when it is sent
from your RPG program to a web server.
The data that comes back from the web server is translated to UTF-16 by
the Expat parser, not by HTTPAPI. It is translated according to the
<?xml encoding="xxxx"?> attribute of the XML file, or it's assumed to be
in UTF-8 if there's no encoding listed.
HTTPAPI uses ILE RPG's built-in support for UCS2 Unicode to convert the
UTF-16 data into EBCDIC.
You've done a good job of telling me what your complaint is -- why
you're having trouble. But you haven't really provided much in the way
of technical details. What does the actual data coming from the web
server look like? How is it encoded? Is there an XML encoding tag (as
explained above) listed, and what does it say? What are the hex values
of the special danish characters as they are coming across the wire?
So I have to do a lot of guessing and experimenting, to try to help you,
which is very time consuming. But, the examples that I tried did print
the special characters correctly, no problems there...
