UNICODE and ?

Post by Kwai chang caine »

Hello at all

Why, when i run this code, i have several "?" in the window debugger. :shock:

Code: Select all

For n = 32 To 1000 
  Debug Chr(n) 
Next
Yet, I have actived the UNICODE in compiler option.

How can i do, for see the chinese, russian, arabic characters ?

Thanks for your answer.

The currently loaded ASCII character set (and I'm sure someone will correct me) only contains 255 characters at any one time so you are trying to debug non-existent characters above 255.

Have a look at the available ASCII characters in the compiler from TOOLS/ASCII TABLE and you will see that it stops at 255.

I believe that you have to have the relevant language support loaded in the Operating System (for all languages you wish to access) that you use and then load the appropriate font set containing those characters used to access them (but once again I could be wrong)

Thanks Fangbeast for your help

There is no other means to write characters aliens?
With a DLL, a database?

AFAIK the console debugger and the standalone debugger support unicode, only the one which is integrated into the IDE doesn't.

i believe there are some reserved (unused) characters, so that may be why windows shows boxes, only 5 of the chinese characters showed here on my linux system...

on windows, from memory asian languages have to be installed specifically, but most european languages are installed by default (cyrillic, etc) - this is all on an english/australian version of windows XP

I have several fonts installed on the computer that are just chinese. I would assume the same would be true for russian or cyrillic fonts as well. Perhaps you could get a hold of a russian version of ARIAL from one of our russian associates? 8)

Play with the font. Fonts are where it is at! :D
