Java text to unicode or UTF-16?
Hi all,
I get a string inputed in by the user, say 〹. I want to add this to an internal string, but as a unicode formated string. Otherwise when I write this string out using a XML formater, it encodes the ampersand character as &
Does anybody know how to do this? Is there a text -> unicode class or method available?
thanks,
Justin
String str = "〹";
char c = (char) Integer.parseInt(str.substring(str.indexOf('#') + 1,str.lastIndexOf(';')));

I need to convert a triple byte unicode value (UTF-8) to UTF-16.
Does anyone have any code to do this. I have tried some code like:
String original = new String("\ue9a1b5");
byte[] utf8Bytes = original.getBytes("UTF8");
byte[] defaultBytes = original.getBytes();
but this does not seem to process the last byte (b5). Also, when I try to convert the hex values to utf-16, it is vastly off.
-LouGood question. Answer is, it does.
Oops, sorry, I think I left my brain in the kitchen :)
I was somehow thinking that "hmmm, e is not a hexadecimal digit so that must result in an error"... but of course it is...
Am I representing the triple byte unicode character
wrong? How do I get a 3 byte unicode character into
Java (for example, the utf-16 9875)?It's simply "\u9875".
If you have byte data in UTF-8 encoding, this is what you can do:try {
byte[] utf8 = {(byte) 0xE9, (byte) 0xA1, (byte) 0xB5}
String stringFromUTF8 = new String(utf8, "UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException uee) {
// UTF-8 is guaranteed to be supported everywhere

Character encoding (unicode to utf-8) conversion problem
I have run into a problem that I can't seem to find a solution to.
my users are copying and pasting from MS-Word. My DB is Oracle with its encoding set to "UTF-8".
Using Oracle's thin driver it automatically converts to the DB's default character set.
When Java tries to encode Unicode to UTF-8 and it runs into an unknown character (typically a character that is in the High Ascii range) it substitutes it with '?' or some other wierd character.
How do I prevent this.my users are copying and pasting from MS-Word. My DB
is Oracle with its encoding set to "UTF-8".Pasting where? Into the database? If they are pasting into the database (however they might do that) and getting bad results then that's nothing to do with Java.
Using Oracle's thin driver it automatically converts
to the DB's default character set.Okay, I will assume that is correct.
When Java tries to encode Unicode to UTF-8 and it
runs into an unknown character (typically a character
that is in the High Ascii range) it substitutes it
with '?' or some other wierd character.This is false. When converting from Unicode to UTF-8 there are no "unknown characters". I don't know what you mean by the "High Ascii range" but if your users are pasting MS stuff into your Java program somehow, then a conversion from something into Unicode is done at that time. If "something" isn't the right encoding then you have the problems already, before you try to write to the DB.
How do I prevent this.First identify the problem. You have input coming from somewhere, then you are writing to the database. Two different steps. Either of them could have a problem. Test them separately so you know which one of them is the problem. -
Japanese characters, outputstreamwriter, unicode to utf-8
Hello,
I have a problem with OutputStreamWriter's encoding of japanese characters into utf-8...if you have any ideas please let me know! This is what is going on:
static public String convert2UTF8(String iso2022Str) {
String utf8Str = "";
try {
//convert string to byte array stream
ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(iso2022Str.getBytes());
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
//decode iso2022Str byte stream with iso-2022-jp
InputStreamReader in = new InputStreamReader(is, "ISO2022JP");
//reencode to utf-8
OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8");
//get each character c from the input stream (will be in unicode) and write to output stream
int c;
while((c=in.read())!=-1) out.write(c);
out.flush();
//get the utf-8 encoded output byte stream as string
utf8Str = os.toString();
is.close();
os.close();
in.close();
out.close();
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e1) {
return e1.toString();
} catch (IOException e2) {
return e2.toString();
return utf8Str;
}I am passing a string received from a database query to this function and the string it returns is saved in an xml file. Opening the xml file in my browser, some Japanese characters are converted but some, particularly hiragana characters come up as ???. For example:
屋台骨田家は時間目離れ拠り所那覇市矢田亜希子ナタハアサカラマ楢葉さマヤア
shows up as this:
屋�?�骨田家�?�時間目離れ拠り所那覇市矢田亜希�?ナタ�?アサカラマ楢葉�?�マヤア
(sorry that's absolute nonsense in Japanese but it was just an example)
To note:
- i am specifying the utf-8 encoding in my xml header
- my OS, browser, etc... everything is set to support japanese characters (to the best of my knowledge)
Also, I ran a test with a string, looking at its characters' hex values at several points and comparing them with iso-2022-jp, unicode, and utf-8 mapping tables. Basically:
- if I don't use this function at all...write the original iso-2022-jp string to an xml file...it IS iso-2022-jp
- I also looked at the hex values of "c" being read from the InputStreamReader here:
while((c=in.read())!=-1) out.write(c);and have verified (using character value mapping table) that in a problem string, all characters are still being properly converted from iso-2022-jp to unicode
- I checked another table (http://www.utf8-chartable.de/) for the unicode values received and all of them have valid mappings to a utf-8 value
So it appears that when characters are written to the OutputStreamWriter, not all characters can be mapped from Unicode to utf-8 even though their Unicode values are correct and there should be utf-8 equivalents. Instead they are converted to (hex value) EF BF BD 3F EF BF BD which from my understanding is utf-8 for "I don't know what to do with this one".
The characters that are not working - most hiragana (thought not all) and a few kanji characters. I have yet to find a pattern/relationship between the characters that cannot be converted.
If I am missing some....or someone has a clue....oh...and I am developing in Eclipse but really don't have a clue about it beyond setting up a project, editing it and hitting build/run. It is possible that I may have missed some needed configuration??
Thank you!!It's worse than that, Rene; the OP is trying to create a UTF-8 encoded string from a (supposedly) iso-2022 encoded string. The whole method would be just an expensive no-op if it weren't for this line: utf8Str = os.toString(); That converts the (apparently valid) UTF-8 encoded byte array to a string, using the system default encoding (which seems to be iso-2022-jp, BTW). Result: garbage.
@meggomyeggo, many people make this kind of mistake when they first start dealing with encodings and charset conversions. Until you gain a good understanding of these matters, a few rules of thumb will help steer you away from frustrating dead ends.
* Never do charset conversions within your application. Only do them when you're communicating with an external entity like a filesystem, a socket, etc. (i.e., when you create your InputStreamReaders and OutputStreamWriters).
* Forget that the String/byte[] conversion methods (new String(byte[]), getBytes(), etc.) exist. The same advice applies to the ByteArray[Input/Output]Stream classes.
* You don't need to know how Java strings are encoded. All you need to know is that they always use the same encoding, so phrases like "iso-2022-jp string" or "UTF-8 string" (or even "UTF-16 string") are meaningless and misleading. Streams and byte arrays have encodings, strings do not.
You will of course run into situations where one or more of these rules don't apply. Hopefully, by then you'll understand why they don't apply. -
Perform unicode to UTF-8 conversion on F110 bacs payment file in ABAP
Hi,
I am facing a conversion issue for the UK BACS payment files.
The payment run tcode F110 creates a payment file but the file when created on the application server has soem sort of code conversion. If I removed the # value, i can read most of the data.
The data example is as below-
#V#O#L#1#0#0#1#5#8#8# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #2#4#3#3#0#9#
#H#D#R#1#A#2#4#3#3#0#9#S# # #1#2#4#3#3#0#9#0#0#0#0#0#2#0#0#0#1#0#0#0#1# # # # # # # #1#0#1#1#2#
#H#D#R#2#F#0#2#0#0#0#0#0#1#0#0# # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
#U#H#L#1# #1#0#1#1#3#9#9#9#9#9#9# # # # #0#0#0#0#0#0#0#0#1# #D#A#I#L#Y# # #0#0#0# # # # # # # #
This is then transferred to the bank via the FTP UNIX Script but after the conversion which is happening as-
#Perform unicode to UTF-8 conversion on bacs file
$a = "iconv -f UNICODE -t UTF-8 $tmpUNI > $tmpASC";
The need going forward is to bring the details via the interface and then make an uplaod.
The ABAP code should be able to make the conversion, remove the additional chracters and then send the file across.
I have searched everywhere but I am not able to find out how to make the same conversion in ABAP.
We are on ECC6.
Can someone please help me?

Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date
I have inherited a UDF in some mapping that on the whole, works okay...
but it throws an error after mapping a few dates:
Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-18T00:00:00.000Z"
Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-23T23:59:00.000Z"

Parse Exception : java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2010-03-23T23:59:00.000Z"
the first few map okay... then i get the exception.
the UDF is as follows:
public String convertDateTimeToUTC(String strDate, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
AbstractTrace trace = container.getTrace();
Date date=null;
SimpleDateFormat sdfSource = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ");
try{
String dt = strDate;
date = sdfSource.parse(dt);
trace.addInfo("Local Date:"+date);
SimpleDateFormat sdfDestination = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss");
strDate = sdfDestination.format(date);
catch(ParseException pe){
trace.addInfo("Parse Exception : " + pe);
return strDate;
can anyone see why this fails after successfully mapping a few fields???the first mapping works correctly...
then we reuse the same fields to map to the additional segments.
the context is correct as it is trying to pull the same fields in... it just throw the error with the same data in the same UDF/Function Library but for different segments! :o(

as you can see from the screenshot above, the mapping works in the first instance, then fails on subsequent nodes. -

Error:"java.text.ParseException :UnparseableDate 01-03-2003"
Can any one help me out... URGENT...,
Thanks in Advance
Rao.Well, the problem is right in front of you. You're telling it the format of the date is going to be
yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss
and then you're giving it the date in a format of
MM-dd-yyyy
and wondering why it's not accepting it? If you want to input a date from one format and output it in another you need to create two SimpleDateFormat objects, one to parse the date from a String to a Date object, and a second (or reuse the first with a different parse string) to format the Date and output it as a String. -

AlbertHi,
Try this
The reason for this error is that the time format entered is not correct. It should be a date and 24-hour format expressed as mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss. For example: 07/15/10 14:30:00.
The WebLogic Server 11g documentation gives instructions for Date/Time format. For details, please refer to
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e13952/pagehelp/Diagnosticsdiagnosticsviewmetricslogtabletitle.html
Solution
However, since you cannot open the Domain Log page again because the console hangs or reports a "Redirect Loop" error, you cannot modify this wrong time format on the console. To resolve this issue, please follow these steps:
Stop WebLogic Server.
Go to directory <Domain>/servers/<Server_Name>/data/console
Either open ConsolePreferences.xml and modify the value of startrange (and/or endrange) to a correctly formatted time, e.g. 07/15/10 14:30:00
OR
Delete ConsolePreferences.xml entirely.
Start Weblogic Server again.

Hi, all,
I'm developing a JSP application that will work with international characters, both displaying them on webpages and storing them in a MySQL database. I'm a bit confused about whether I should use Unicode or UTF-8 for those character strings. (I've read up on both of these encodings and they appear to be very similar in many respects.)
Can anyone give me any suggestions as to which I should use and why?
Thanks,
Dmitri.UTF-16 uses 2 bytes for all characters.
UTF-8 generally uses anywhere from 1 to 6 bytes toActually, UTF-16 uses 16-bit tokens, and represents characters with one or more tokens, like all UTF encodings.
Generally, the encodings 'UTF-N' use N-bit tokens, and encode the 32-bit UNICODE scalar values (character set) with one or more tokens. Typically, the lower values in the encoding represent the UNICODE scalar values directly.
UNICODE defines 'UTF-8', 'UTF-16', and 'UTF-32', the latter two in big- and little-endian forms as well as self-specifying forms (using initial bytes of a file or stream). 'UTF-32' encoding just uses the UNICODE scale values directly.
There is also 'UTF-7', which is used in mime encoding to get through 7bit character sets. There are also unofficial 'UTF-6' etc for specialist use.
UTF-8 has the advantage that it does not contain null (zero valued) bytes, which means that it works transparently with code expecting to see one byte characters (assuming the legacy code doesn't try to manipulate multi-byte characters!). -
I have this import directive in my jsp page.
<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.sql.*;java.text.DecimalFormat" contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
I am using Jdeveloper 9i 9.0.3.
When I compile this page from within JDeveloper I get this error for java.text.DecimalFormat
Error: 'class' or 'interface' expected
When I compile outside JDeveloper, I get NO error.
Can somebody tell me what the problem is.<%@ page import="java.io.*;java.sql.*;java.text.DecimalFormat" contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
I think that missing semi-colon is what's creating problems for you.

URGENT: Entering Chinese into Java Text Area
Hi,
This might be an FAQ question but some of the info I've gotten over the web so far is conflicting.
How do I allow a user to enter Chinese text into a Java Text Area (using an english keyboard)?
All my users have:
English Windows 2000 with a multilanguage pack. I cannot change this.
But, I can specify any downloads (IMEs, etc.) and I can choose whichever version of Java I desire.
Please let me know what is the simplist way to enable Chinese data entry in this environment. Let me know if I need to create my own input type :( or I can use MS Global IME) or if there are other third party chinese input types (even if they are not free).
Thank you and have a nice day.
Best Regards,
CarlosThanks for the note. The news was depressing - but things are much clearer now :) I would like one more clarification, though -
On the MS site, I quote
Any user who needs to input East Asian text across the language platforms of Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 could use Global IME.
"Note: On Windows 2000, the Global IMEs work in any application since that OS has full-featured East Asian input support built in. On Windows Millennium, Windows 98, Windows 95, and Windows NT 4.0, the Global IMEs work only in supporting applications."
When they say they say "full-featured East Asian input support built-in" does that exclude Java? If it would work, would it work with Swing or only AWT?
Any thoughts? Thanks again for your not, I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me with this clarification.
Best Regards,
Carlos -

The pullDate method reads a string from a JTextField (textField) and tries to return a Date. If it can't format it then it returns null. It tries to format the text based on the formats listed. If it can't format the text using one then it tries the next until it runs out of them. Change the formats to whatever you like. Good luck.

String text = textField.getText();

Java.text.ParseException:Unparseable date
Whilst using the DBMS_XMLSave.updateXML procedure I am having problems parsing a date which is the format dd/mm/yy
I have tried to use the following procedure to set the date format :
DBMS_XMLSave.setDateFormat(updCtx,'DD/MM/YY');
Unfortunately it is not working, as the parser still does not recognise the date format, it seems to want the time element.
please may somebody advise on some possible solutionsThe date formats must match java date formats not Oracle date formats. For a list of valid date formats please check http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/api/java.text.SimpleDateFormat.html

Sorry in advance if this is not the correct area for this question. I posted this in i18n, but there doesn't seem to be a high level of activity in that group. So I'm cross-posting here in the hopes of a response to a basic question.
According to the FAQ's sun.* packages should not be used. I've been reviewing some older apps that use sun.text.*, sun.text.resources.* for i18n stuff. What packages/classes should be used instead? I'm thinking java.text.* .. but as there is no documenation on the sun.* packages I'm a bit in the dark.
Any hints/links/advice would be greatly appreciatedAre you refering to the DateFormats and Locales that
are in sun.text.resources? Yes
What classes are being used? sun.text doesn't look like anything in
java.text. DateFormatZoneData and LocaleData. -
Java.text.resources.LocaleElements
Hi
Accessing an application through an IE browser runs fine with plugin J2SE 1.3.1 BUT with J2SE 1.4.1 this error is returned.
java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name java.text.resources.LocaleElements, locale en_US
at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(Unknown Source)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(Unknown Source)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(Unknown Source)
What has changed in the later version that is causing this? Is there a workaround for this?
