If you're compiling in unicode mode:

Chr(Number)

Hi Trond,

Is possible to get unicode characters without compiling in unicode mode?
I need to know it to interpret the characters sended by external device.

Thanks in advance.
Best regards

The problem is that you can't represent all the unicode characters as ascii characters. If you don't care about that then you can still use Chr(UniCharacter.w).

To convert an entire string:

Code: Select all

UniStr = AllocateMemory(10)
PokeW(@UniStr, 'A')
PokeW(@UniStr+2, 'B')
PokeW(@UniStr+4, 'C')

Debug PeekS(@UniStr, 3, #PB_Unicode)
