Convert unicode to ascii

I have a unicode like "100", which represents ASCII code: "d"
I can simply convert unicode to ascii code if using Visual Basic function: chr(); but how can I do the same job under cocoa ?
thank you.

Well, if you wanted to create a single-character NSString from an integer value, you could do something like:
unichar oneChar = 100;
NSString *oneCharStr = [NSString stringWithCharacters:&oneChar length:1];
What are you trying to accomplish?

Diacritic: unicode to ascii

I'm looking for an algorithm to convert Unicode ro ASCII characters. The algorithm does not have to cover all unicode characters, but Latin1 and Latin 2 should be covered. If the character cannot be converted (no representation in ascii), then i can do it manually (or use a "?")
thanx.
trev

From your title I assume you want to just drop any diacritics attached to the characters?
Some time ago I downloaded a file from the Unicode site which contains lines like010C;LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CARON;Lu;0;L;0043 030C;;;;N;LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C HACEK;;;010D;This contains the Unicode description of the character Č in particular that it can be decomposed to 0043 (C) and 030C (combining hook above). I don't see that property exposed in the java.lang.Character class, but you could use it to create a hard-coded mapping table.

Convert char to ascii code and vice versa

HI
Is there any function module to convert char to ascii code and vice versa.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
be careful if you have unicode running in your system. URL_ASCII_CODE_GET is platform-dependent so it will return the internal HERX representation of the character in your system - which is hopefully and in most cases ASCII.
Under unicode, we use double-byte characters here. I tried this function and the result CHAR_CODE is '00' regardless what character I specify for TRANS_CHAR. But the coding is so simple I corrected resultig in this sample code:
[P]
convert p_form to ASCII (internal) representation
DATA:
    l_ofs TYPE syfdpos,
    l_len TYPE sy-linsz,
    l_ascii TYPE i.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
    <x> TYPE x.
l_len = STRLEN( p_ascii ).
DO l_len TIMES.
    l_ofs = sy-index - 1.
    ASSIGN p_ascii+l_ofs(1) TO <x> CASTING.
    l_ascii = <x>.
    WRITE: l_ascii.
ENDDO.
[/P]
Here, for each character of string p_ascii, the internal (ASCII) representation is determined and written to the output list.

Clemens

Problem convertting certain extended ascii characters

I'm having problems with the extended ascii characters in the range 128-159. I'm working with SQL server environment using java. I originally had problems with characters in the range 128-159 when I did a 'select char_col from my_table' I always get junk when I try to retreive it from the ResultSet using the code 'String str = rs.getString(1)'. For example char_col would have the ascii character (in hex) '0x83' but when I retrieved it from the database, my str equaled '0x192'. I'm aware there is a gap in the range 128-159 in ISO-8859-1 charset. I've tracked the problem to be a charset issue converting the extended ascii characters in ISO-8859-1 into java's unicode charset.
I looked on the forum and it said to try to specify the charset when I retreived it from the resultset so I did 'String str = new String(rs.getBytes(), "ISO-8859-1")' and it was able to read the characters 128-159 correctly except for five characters (129, 141, 143, 144, 157). These characters always returned the character 63 or 0x3f. Does anyone who what's happening here? How come these characters didn't work? Is there a workaround this? I need to use only use java and its default charsets and I don't want to switch to the windows Cp1252 charset cuz I'm using the java code in a unix environment as well.
thanks.

Normally your JDBC driver should understand the charset used in the database, and it should use that charset to produce a correct value for the result of getString(). However it does sometimes happen that the database is created by programs in some other language that ignore the database's charset and do their own encoding, bypassing the database's facilities. It is often difficult to deal with that problem, because the custodians of those other programs don't have a problem, everything is consistent for them, and they will not allow you to "repair" the database.
I don't mean to say that really is your problem, it is a possibility though. You are using an SQL Server JDBC driver, aren't you? Does its connection URL allow you to specify the charset? If so, try specifying that SQL-Latin1 thing and see if it works.

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.

Alogrithm for converting Unicode characters to EBCDIC

I would like to know if there is any algorithm for converting Unicode Characters to EBCDIC.
Awaiting your replys
Thanks in advance,
Ravi

I would like to know if there is any algorithm for
converting Unicode Characters to EBCDIC.Isn't ECBDIC a 7-bit code like ASCII. Unicode is
16-bit. This means there is no way Unicode can be
mapped on ECBDIC without loss of information. Link to
Unicode,
No. That is like saying that since UTF-8 is 8 bit based then it can't be mapped to UTF-16. But it does.
EBCDIC either directly supports or has versions which support multibyte character sets. A multibyte character set can encode any fixed format sized character set. The basic idea is the same way UTF-8 works.
Multibyte character sets have the added benifit that most of the data in the world is from the ASCII character set and the encodings always support that using only 8 bits. Thus the memory savings over UTF-16 (or UTF-32) are significant.

Unicode to ascii

hello,everyone,
i have a problem in java programming.
how can i convert the unicode to ascii?

If you just need to convert a file then java provide a tool: native2ascii.exe
if you need to do it in java read the file in to a string then save it using
OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(fout, "US-ASCII");

Instrument I/O Assistant:Convertir les commandes ASCII en numérique?

Bonjour à Tous,
Je suis à la recherche des exemples d'applications et des liens sur les assistants E/S d'instruments dans le but de développer un driver pour power supply Haut Voltage.
En effet ,dans le cadre de mon projet j'ai utilisé ces Assistants E/S directes pour communiquer (Commandes en ASCII ,Reponses en ASCII) avec des alimentations Haut Voltage de type MPS Spellman et le programme fonctionne très bien.
Pour la suite de mon travail je voudrai utilier des commandes Numériques (Décimal) sur la face avant du CODE VI standard obtenu après conversion et avoir des réponses en numérique pour l'exploitation (Ci joint le Code VI Réalisé)
EXP de commandes: stx 12 EN1 Y lf = ON ( Enable )
                                    stx 12 EN0 z lf = oFF (Disable)
                                    stx 12 V1=5 d lf : Pour appliquer 5Volt
,,,                               stx 12 V1=1000 X z lf : pour appliquer 1000 Volt
Je sais pas si des fonctions existent sous Labview ou il faut écrire un autre de programme de calcul? si quelqu'un a des remarques ou des suggestions à faire,,elles seront les bienvenues Merci à bientot.

How to convert tdms to ascii files?

Hello,
I need to convert *.tdms files to an ascii file. I have 16 channels and scalling coefficient information in the tdms file, With the TDMS-Image Viewer i can see the 1-D array waveform perfectly, but I cant write it to an ascii file. When I use a signalexpress.vi or the spreetsheat.vi for writing an LVM/ascii file, information gets lost. (Red symbol at INPUT!!!!)
Please answer me, because I dont have lots of experience with labview and an ascii file is more easier to handle for me! I found only export to matlab and exel, but i just want it in an ascii file. Reading the tdms and opening it is no problem, but connecting the right blocks to the 1D array waveform without dataloss doesnt work.
thank you for reading
danny

Thank you for reply,
i have the new version 8.5. With signalexpress.vis i can do asciis but the red symbol (at input) is there so i dont want to get information lost.
The tdms file has header information for scalling factors and unscalled data for 16 channels.
so because tdms files are faster for writing i want to convert them to ascii with a Convertion Vi, but it seems that with an express vi he stops because it cant handle handle with the headerinformation.
now i use the signalexess vi to write tdms data, before i did it manully by setting channel and group information.
Please tell me if the red symbol AT input of a Signalexpress VI does matter? its a 1D array wavefrom that goes in to the input.
thank you for this discussion, i hope that i dont need to use the matlab import option for tdms!!
greetings danny

Importing COBOL copybook into OSB & converting it to ASCII

Hi,
I want to import a COBOL copybook(.cpy/.copy file) into OSB.
Based on that copybook, there is an EBCDIC file which I want to convert into an ASCII file.
I used Format Builder to import the copybook, but it does not show any indication whether the copybook got imported or not.
Please help... this is urgent..

There was a problem with the copybook... so it was not imported.
The corrected copybook got imported perfectly.

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...)

After Effects error: could not convert Unicode characters. (23 :: 46)

Hello,
I'm getting the following error message:
After Effects error: could not convert Unicode characters. (23 :: 46)
I have yet to find an answer that works to resolve this problem. I'm using CS6 on an HP Z220 on Windows 7.
Thanks in advance.

So I solved the problem. A little history for this situation: I created a new AE project and while attempting to import a file received the error message: After Effects error: could not convert Unicode characters. (23 :: 46)
I then tried to import a Vanishing Point which broken the spell on the error message and allowed the menu to select a vanishing point to appear. I closed out of that and was then able to import files.

JZ0I6:An error occured converting UNICODE to the charset used by the server

Hi Friends,
I am using weblogic 8.1 and I developed one MD Bean(Message Distributor Bean). Which takes message from JMS queue and pulish it to JMS Topic. Database is sybase. I was facing this issue.
I am facing following issue:

Please give me the solution.

This problem has resolved. I added one line: "CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.PureConverter" into weblogic datasource.
In Internet I got lot's of article but it was worst. There were giving solution on Weblogic 4 or some old version. Generally on internet you will get article:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v4r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.support.was40.doc/html/DB_Connections_Connection_Pooling/swg21066787.html
This article is giving information about weblogic 4.
But We need to solve the issue into weblogic into 8. So in datasource set property: CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.PureConverter. Do not set property: CHARSET_CONVERTER_CLASS=com.sybase.jdbc2.utils.TruncationConverter

AE error: Could not convert Unicode Characters

Hey guys,
I purchased the Video Copliot Action essentials 2 (720p). Whenever I try to import or drag and drop the pre-keyed clips (quicktime .mov format) into AE, I get the After Effects error: could not convert Unicode Characters (23 ::46) . I found an article online that said to make changes to the text in whatever Im importing, but umm it's a video, not text.
I am using AE cs5.
I can import the clips just fine into Premier Pro and export them oddly enough in Quicktime format just fine, however I lose the transperency "pre-keyed" , that's somehow embedded into the original video, therefore I now have a video of smoke, but with a non removable black background.
Please help! thanks!

Hey man i made an account just to reply to this, i had the same error come up while i was importing video files so i had a look around and found that it had something to do with the language/coding not being recognised, so i looked closer into the footage and tried different method of importing the file and later realised that after effects didnt recognise some of the characters in the file path way, the original folder was created using a macbook, windows recognises the language but after effects didnt, so i moved the file to my desktop and tried to import it again and presto it worked fine, you may not have the same problem but i thought just incase you do, you should try moving the file,
if not heres a thread for the error:
http://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/kb/error-could-convert-unicode-characters.html
hope that could be of some help.
