Problems with croatian letters (CP1250)

Hello.
I have got a small problem with some characters in my application. I am working on Java Card tehonlogy with Gemplus GemXpresso 211PK tool (reader is GemPC410) and when I made an application in JBuilder 8 (I am using(I had to) JDK 1.2. not new 1.4.-> that they wrote in documentation) I try to run application but when application is running our Croatian characters are not shown (they are replaced vith rectangle) and I don't know what to do. I try with the java.util.Local package but it's not working and i try to change the code page in JBuilder on Cp1250 but stil nothing.
I want to ask you if you can help me.
Thank you very much.
Bye,
Mario.

Haha, I understand most of the Sweedish language, but I never get the nickname you guys are using on us: "norrbagge"... I guesing it not excactly the same as "normann"?
Setting locale in .bashrc did not solve my problems. Tried them all.
After putting <export LC_ALL="nb_NO.iso88591"> in .bashrc, the comand: "locale" gives me:
in xterm:
[kristian@localhost ~]$ locale
LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="nb_NO.iso88591"

LC_ALL=nb_NO.iso88591]
Why doesn't "LANG" match with the others? Where can I change it?
The loadkeys-problem was because I forgot to run it as root :oops: But it did not solve anything.
I got the Idea that aterm might be compiled without support for Norwegian letters, and tried to recompile it. Man that is easy to do with "abs"!! But it did not solve my problems , or maybe I just tried the wrong flags. Tried --enable-greek --enable-big5 --enable-kanji, but all I got was som werid japanese(or something) letters. I reinstalled aterm from current.

Has anyone had a problem with the letters literally rubbing off the keyboard?

Has anyone had a problem with the letters actually disappearing from the keybord, like being gradually rubbed out? My macbook air had this problem one year after purchase. They fixed it for free. Now, a year later, I have the same prob. Apple doesnt want to know.
I would be delighted with any suggestions, reactions etc. thanks in advance.

I don't have to be doing anything or be anywhere near the computer.

Problems with special letters while export/import the application

Hi all,
I have a HTML DB with german letters in the labels and buttons. After the import of my application I have developed recently, alle the german letters are replaced with curious characters like Ã¶ instead of ö e.g.
Do you know a solution for this problem?
Thx!
Michal

Hi Michal,
1) What is the version of HTML DB?
2) What is your database character set?
3) What does the configuration of your Database Access Descriptor look like?
4) If HTML DB 2.0, have you applied the PL/SQL Web Tloolkit patch?

Problems with norwegian letters when browsing samba share.

When I'm browsing my samba share from my ArchLinux workstation, files in the share with norwegian letters are not shown correct. This applies both from aterm and konqueror.
But if I use a Windows XP/2000 machine, everything is shown like it is suppose to do with norwegian letters.
The samba server is also running ArchLinux. On my workstation I'm using Enlightenment as windowmanager.
Is this a problem with my samba server or with my linux workstation? What can I do to fix it?
[orjanp@ArchLinux ~]$ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = HJEMMENETT
server string = Samba
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
log file = /var/log/samba.%m
max log size = 50
dns proxy = No
printer admin = root
load printers = yes
use client driver = Yes
display charset = ISO-8859-1
dos charset = 850
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No
[Media]
path = /mnt/media
browseable = yes
write list = orjanp
[Software]
path = /mnt/progs
browseable = yes
write list = orjanp
[Bacup]
path = /mnt/bacup
read list = orjanp
write list = orjanp
browseable = No
[HP750]
comment = Samba shared printer
path = /var/spool/samba
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
printer name = HP750
use client driver = yes
oplocks = No
share modes = No

It seems like it's not only the ArchLinux workstation that displays the norwegian letters wrong. The only machine that shows this correc is the machine that created the file/catalogue.
It seems like the windows 2000 displays the cataloge created by windows XP just fine.

Cp-1251 utf-8 converting: problems with russian letters

Hello every one!
I have faced a major problem in cp-1251 to utf8 string convertion (in Windows):
String result2 = new String(result.getBytes("utf8"), Charset.forName("cp-1251"));Everything works fine, but there is a problem with russian letter И (10th letter in the alphabeth).
cp-1251 byte code of И is 200
The right byte code for И in utf-8 is : 208 152, but I recieve the byte code 208 63 for И. So there must be some mistake.
So, when i try to read this string, i face a problem with wrong utf-8 charset...
I tried this code on Debian, everything works fine.
I will be glad if you are capable of helping me.
Thank you.

Your code makes no sense.
You're taking a String and asking for it to be turned into a stream of bytes according to the UTF-8 character encoding. And then you're giving these bytes back and asking to have them interpreted back into characters using the CP-1251 character encoding. This is bound to fail, because the bytes aren't in CP-1251 - they're in UTF-8 as you requested.
The very concept of changing the character encoding of a String is meaningless. Strings in Java are represented in Unicode. It's only when you convert to and from bytes (using the two methods you've used) that you worry about encoding/decoding.
So, why not describe what you're actually trying to achieve?

Acrobat 9.2 display problem with arbitrary letters

I am running Acrobat Pro 9.2 on Mac OS X (10.6.2). I have several PDFs which display properly in Preview. When opened with Acrobat 9.2, the letters o and X appear not to be displayed. It appears that they are present but drawn in the page color (white). This bizarre problem just started, but I'm not sure whether an upgrade of OS/Acrobat caused it. Again, Preview displays them just fine.
Anyone else seeing anything similar?
Thanks.

Most likely they are coloured white and set to 'overprint', although it seems odd to be only those characters... Not knowing what you have I can only guess. Preview does not honour the overprint attribute which makes white appear transparent in Acrobat.

Problem with uppercase letters in Preferences

The following code [excuse lack of formatting]
----- snip ----
import java.util.prefs.*;
public class PrefTest {
Preferences prefs = Preferences.systemRoot();
public PrefTest() {
public void DoIt() {
Preferences myPref = prefs.node("com/MyCompany/MyPackage");
Preferences prefa = myPref.node("MyClass1/Configuration");
prefa.put("MyString", "MyValue");
public static void main(String[] args) {
PrefTest cfg = new PrefTest ();
cfg.DoIt();
----- snip ----
produces the following registry entries [Wndows XP]
----- snip ----
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\/My/Company]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\/My/Company\/My/Package]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\/My/Company\/My/Package\/My/Class1]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\/My/Company\/My/Package\/My/Class1\/Configuration]
"/My/String"="/My/Value"
----- snip ----
As you can see, all the uppercase letters are prefixed by a '/'.
I can see nothing in the docs for java.util.prefs which defines
such behaviour. Is this a bug, a feature or what?
Regards, Alan Beale

OK, I'll reply to my own post, as I think I've found the answer
in case anyone else is interested...
From
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/releases/preferences/
-- snip --
You'll see the result of running the code above under J2SE Beta 1.4 for Windows in Figure 1. Note that WML is encoded as /W/M/L, and PreferredChannel as /Preferred/Channel because Preferences has case-sensitive keys and node-names, while the backing store of choice (in this case Windows Registry) does not.
-- snip --
This implies that reading back the prefs should work OK, although the
data in the registry looks ugly. If this is the case [haven't tested
it yet] then it's not a problem.

Crazy problem with letters.

Hey guys,
I'm having this really weird problem with some letters on my Mac. I've posted a lot of the info over at MacRumors, so here's the link:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=5101058
Thanks,

They don't know. I just posted that link to show you what I found out, instead of writing out a gigantic post. Oh, yeah, I am running 10.5.2, forgot to change my info before I posted that up.
I'll try deleting those fonts later, as I'm kinda busy right now.

[internationalization] problems with Chinese characters

Hi everybody.
I'm working on a program and i'd like to translate it into several languages. Until now I've managed to launch my program in 3 languages : French, English and German. I do it by asking the user which language he'd like to select by means of a JComboBox. Then the right Locale is selected and the right text is called by the RessourceBundle and so on .... Actually I've encountered no problems with "latin lettered" languages.
I also tried to introduce Chinese in my program and that's how problems come in. The way Chinese is introduced in the program is exactly the same that of French, English and German. The .properties file I use is MyRessourcesMainTitle_zh.properties and one line is stored in it: title = 中文
However when I run the program and selected Chinese as language an error pops up in the DOS console : "Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.util.MissingRessourceException : Can't find ressource for bundle java.util.PropertyRessourceBundle, key title".
I would like to point out that I saved my *.properties in a former *.txt file encoded in Unicode. Saving it encoded either in Unicode big endian or in UTF8 ends with the same problem. However the program ran just fine when I encoded it in ANSI but it's worthless insofar as the Chinese characters are transformed into "?".
Would anyone have an idea about how to implement sucessfully Chinese characters in my program ?

I dont think you can print chinese chars at the console on window
to print the character codes to the console use someting like that
char [] chars = request.getParameter("whatever").toCharArray()
for(each chars){
System.out.println((int)chars);
then check if you got the corresponding chinese char

PROBLEM WITH ALT-V WHEN USING CROATIAN KEYBOARD

Hi,
When Typing ALT GR+V (@ sign) in Croatian Keyboard, all the text from clipboard is copied into the text box (as it is pressed CTRL+V) plus the @sign.
There were some bugs filed long back regarding a similar issue for the German keyboard where the customer was using the AltGr key for special characters, same as in our case.
Below is the list of those bugs:
(1)     Bug 757614: GERMAN USERS CANNOT USE ALT-GR KEY TO GET SPECIAL CHARACTERS
(2)     666925
(3)     767865
(4)     768658
I have gone through the descriptions and mail chains mentioned in these bugs, and it seems that the issue was fixed in OJDK.
Please go through the above mentioned bugs once to get more details.
It seems that this is not ORMS issue. It seems to be an Oracle Forms or OJDK issue.
Can someone please advise on this as why is this happening. We are using Oracle Forms 10g.
Thanks and Regards,
Ashwini Swaroop Pradhan

What do you mean by that? The problem being talked about here is an inability to make French accented characters on a German keyboard. What is your problem exactly?
I've posted here because I guess it may be the same bug.
After upgrading I wasn't able to do special characters, including some accented vocals, like "ì", very common in italian language.
Then I've added an english keyboard, removed the italian one and added it again, so the problem with missing accented vocals was solved.
I still have the same problem with special consonants, like "z" and "c": if I hold my thumb on such letters, I have no options like, say, "ż" (such characters are very important for my field (linguistics) and if Apple won't solve this problem I'll be forced to look elsewhere).

I am having a problem when I try to select a photo or itunes song in Imovie or other programs. I get a window with grey lettering that says: "Open Itunes to populate this list" or "Open iphoto to see photos from your iPhoto library in this list. I have tried relaunching programs and nothing appears. Seemed to start happening a while back after one of my system upgrades.

After a a lengthy conversation with Apple Tech. ($20), my problem seems to be solves. The Iphoto problem solved by trashing the plist file. The Itunes was more involved. We had to create a new Itunes folder and import the files into the new folder; and then import the playlists.

Is your problem due to the keyboard or to NeoOffice Characters? You have to change probably the font. Not all fonts are supporting all Unicode sets. Which font you have in your NeoOffice set to write Tamil? Try with Arial Unicode MS for example.
Are the letter e-Ex and ai-Ex right in your posting? If they are right, how you inserted these letters in your posting? By copy and paste or by typing? If by typing, your question is related to NeoOffice. Probably you should reinstall or update NeoOffice? Or switch to OpenOffice?
