Convert String from ASCII to ANSI

Hi,
a command line instruction via LabVIEW function "System Exec.vi" retrieves me a string in ASCII format. Is there a function to convert string from ASCII to ANSII format? I use LabVIEW 8.5 German Installation.
Kind Regards

Hallo Christian,
AFAIK there is no such in function in LabView...
But you can:
- use "Search and replace string" to search for ASCII chars and replace them by their corresponding ANSI char, do this in a loop for all chars to be replaced (acceptable speed for small strings...)
- convert the string to an U8 array and use a lookup table to convert all bytes from ASCII to ANSI, convert back to string (may be faster for long strings...)
Best regards,

Two Spaces being converted to from ascii 32,32 to ascii 160,32

Two Spaces being converted to from ascii 32,32 to ascii 160,32 when the page is
loaded by the browser.
This problem is exhibited when viewing an address page in personal data that contains
two spaces in the address field. i.e.. APT102- 102 Elm St.
We put debug traces in to display the ascii character values of the spaces before
and after the record is brought up. This debug showed that the two spaces change
from
Before: space,space or ASCII(32),ASCII(32)
After: ASCII(160) ASCII(32)
This is causing the application to display a record change warning. This occurs
on IE 5.5, 6.0, Netscape 6, but DOES NOT occur using the Opera 6 browser. For
what it's worth, the database is Non-unicode.

Convert String from UTF-8 to IsoLatin1

Hi everyone !
I'm trying to convert a String from utf-8 to IsoLatin1, but i got somt problems.... I'm using
actually this code, but it won't work...
I'm getting a utf-8 html String with some data and i will write it down in latin1 to a text file
String newString = new String(oldString.getBytes("UTF-8"), "ISO-8859-1");If i'm now writing this newString to a TextFile it contains cryptic signs like
& # 1 3 ; or & # 1 3 7 ; or & # 1 2 8 ;(i separated this chars)
can anyone tell me where is my fault and how can i solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot

Yes its XML, i got a web editor where i can add input (utf-8) and i want to write it down in my class to a xml file (isoLatin1).
My code looks likte this
     public static void setEditFragment(String content, String xPath) throws Exception {
         DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
         DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
         Document document = builder.parse("3001300.xml");
         XPath xpath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
         Node node = (Node)xpath.evaluate(xPath, document, XPathConstants.NODE);
        Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1");
        CharsetEncoder encoder = charset.newEncoder();
        ByteBuffer buf = encoder.encode(CharBuffer.wrap(content));
        node.setTextContent(buf.toString());
           // Use a XSLT transformer for writing the new XML file
        Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
         DOMSource        source = new DOMSource( document );
         FileOutputStream os     = new FileOutputStream("tmp.xml");
         StreamResult     result = new StreamResult( os );
         transformer.transform( source, result );
     }The example from http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.nio.charset/ConvertChar.html looks great, but if I add my own input string i get a exception that looks like this
java.nio.charset.UnmappableCharacterException: Input length = 1
     at java.nio.charset.CoderResult.throwException(Unknown Source)
     at java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder.encode(Unknown Source)
     at HagerAbs.setEditFragment(HagerAbs.java:91)
     at HagerAbs.main(HagerAbs.java:108)When i write my input to the xml file it doesnt look like xml at all, it looks more like
<synthese>& # 13;
& # 13;
& lt;br/& gt;& # 13;
& lt;img class="thumb" src="http: ......{code}
(i seperated the char so you can see)
and this is not what i expected... how can i write it down correctly ?

I need a java function that convert string to ASCII,

I have a string like "test123"
I want to convert this string to ascii code?how could I do this

It is not compeltely clear, what you need, but String has this method:

Convert string to ascii

does anybody know how to convert a string to it's ascii code?

does anybody know how to convert a string to it's
ascii code?In Java characters are represented with Unicode,
http://unicode.org
Fortunately the commonly used Basic Latin Unicode character set corresponds to the ASCII character set. So to get the ASCII representation of a char you just interpret the char as a number.
char ch = 'A';
int i = ch;
System.out.println("Both Unicode Basic Latin and ASCII use " + i + " to represent an " + ch);

Convert file from UNICODE to ANSI

Hi,
After i read-in a file using FileInputStream,
1. I need to detect if its in UNICODE format. How to do that?
2. If it is, i need to convert it into ANSI (so that i can parse it later on) How?
Any hints/solutions?
Thanks,

Hi,
After i read-in a file using FileInputStream,
1. I need to detect if its in UNICODE format. How to
do that?It's very difficult to determine the encoding of an arbitrary chink of text. If you have a specific set of possibilities, then it gets easier. What are the possible encodings that file could be?
2. If it is, i need to convert it into ANSI (so that
i can parse it later on) How?
Any hints/solutions?What do you mean by ANSI encoding? There's no such thing as "ANSI encoding", but that usually referes to Windows-1252. (http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars.html#win) If that's what you're also referring to, then there's not really any way to convert Unicode to 1252. Unicode is a superset of 1252. If the file has any characters outside of the range defined by 1252, then there's no conversion to be done, that character simply doesn't exist in 1252.
I recommend you read this:

Converting string from file to array

I'm new to LabVIEW and have been thrown into the middle of a project, so I need to get some code working fast! Can someone help me understand why the VI I've attached isn't working? I want to have a text file that contains a list of integers that will be used to reference particular elements in arrays within my program. I tried to follow an example I found, but the output that should be an array is coming out as a scaler. Any help would be super appreciated! Thanks!
Solved!

First, let's explain the reason for your error: The reason why it's happening is that you're trying to do two different things at the same time. You're auto-indexing the array and you're trying to index the array inside the loop. When you wire an array to a for loop it auto-indexes the loop. Meaning LabVIEW knows how many times to run the loop - there is no need to wire to the N terminal. Also, the wire inside the loop will be an instance of the element of the array, not the array. So, the wire inside the loop is a scalar. Thus, the reason for the broken wire - you can't index a scalar.
Also, I'm not sure what you're trying to do with the indexing of the one element of the cluster. The cluster is empty, so there's nothing to index. Presumably the file is there to tell you which elements to pull out from the "Amp2" array from the cluster. If so, remember that auto-indexing works both ways. If you connect an "outbound" wire to the edge of a loop it auto-indexed there as well, meaning the output will be an array.
Please read the LabVIEW Help on auto-indexing.
Now, given all of that, here is what your code should look like:
Note the use of the Read From Spreadsheet File VI. It makes your life easier.

How can i convert values in my string to ascii characters

Is anybody has any idea
Thanks alot in Advance

You get get the ascii code for those characters by doing something like:
int ascii = str.charAt(0); //Get ascii value for the first character.

Converting string(which is an xml from the java side) to xml in flex

   I have an xml from the java side which i send as string over amf. I need to convert this to xmllist or xml and bind it to a tree. Could some one help me in doing this. My label field needs to be displayName
this is my xml that comes as string to the flex side
<Menu>
<MenuItem>
    <id>1</id>
    <displayName>Add</displayName>
    <menuList>
      <MenuItem>
        <id>3</id>
        <displayName>Form1</displayName>
        <menuList/>

      <MenuItem>
        <id>4</id>
        <displayName>Form2</displayName>

      <MenuItem>
        <id>6</id>
        <displayName>Form2</displayName>
        <menuList/>
      </MenuItem>
    </menuList>
</MenuItem>
</Menu>

Well, for Binding you will probably need to further convert to XMLListCollection or ArrayCollection.
Not sure.
However, that is the way to convert String to XML.
