[SOLVED] NTFS-3G UTF-8 Support

Ever since the "todo: have to rethink extra options" error started showing up on NTFS-3G, I've been using the /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-ntfs-config-write-policy.fdi fix found at <http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=42070> (fifth post down, by Pilli).
That would allow me to mount external NTFS partitions, and by changing the contents of /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g to
#!/bin/bash
/bin/ntfs-3g $1 $2 -o locale=en_GB.UTF-8
and making it executable, I was able to restore UTF-8 support.
On a new Arch install today, I tried mounting my external NTFS drive without using the fix shown at the top of this post. I was overjoyed to find that it mounted, as well as an internal NTFS drive. However, I noticed I did not have UTF-8 support. I tried using the UTF-8 fix shown above but it seems it does not work now. Does anyone know how to restore UTF-8 support with the new NTFS-3G package?

the fix from the first post in this topic worked for me fo far
now when i use this fix, and try to mount a disk there's "unknown error"
christ it's an outrage the hal option doesn't get parsed like it's supposed to after all this time!!
how to make hal automount a ntfs-3g drive with utf-8 locale?

[SOLVED] Is full UTF-8 supported in unicode-rxvt?

Does urxvt have full UTF-8 support, or it only supports 16 bit unicode characters?
I have set inconsolata font for URXVT adding to .Xdefaults this line: URxvt*font: xft: Inconsolata:pixelsize=17:antialias=True:hinting=True
I can write most characters, like á, ñ, etc. But It looks like characters with codes greater than 16 bits are not printed. E.g.:
- If I open XFCE Terminal (also configured to use Inconsolata font) and input: [CTRL]+[SHIFT]+U,1F600, it outputs the smiling face.
- If I open urxvt ant while holding [CTRL]+[SHIFT] type 1F600, only an empty rectangle is shown.
The same happens for other characters I have tested with codes greater than 16 bit. It works flawlessly though with 16 bit codes. Is there a way to make these characters to work? I need the smileys because of the telegram CLI client...

UTF-8 Support

Hello,
I'm trying to send some queries to the dbxml 2.5.14 and I get the following error:
XmlInvalidValue: XmlException 14, Error: checkTrailingBytes: bad utf-8 encoding File: \dbxml-2.5.13\dbxml\src\dbxml\nodeStore\NsUtil.cpp Line: 198
Inside the Queries there are some special german letters [ä,ü,ö,Ä,Ü,Ö].
Importing xml-files with these letters works fine. But using Queries I get the above error.
I looked into the file NsUtil.cpp and for me the UTF-8 Support is well implemented.
I read something about missing UTF-8 Support in the used CommandLine/Shell.
I'm using Win XP and Python 2.5, and they both have UTF-8 Support.
So why do I get this Error??
Thanks for your help.

Hello
I have a similar problem which I cannot manage to solve. I followed your example and wrote:
String expression = "doc('teste.dbxml/ação')";
expression = new String(utf8.encode(expression).array());
but I continue to get the following exception:
com.sleepycat.dbxml.XmlException: Error: Invalid URI format [err:FODC0005], errcode = QUERY_PARSER_ERROR
at com.sleepycat.dbxml.dbxml_javaJNI.XmlManager_prepare__SWIG_1(Native Method)
Can you maybe show your complete solution?
Thank you
Koen
PS: my container teste.dmxl is extremely simple, containing only one document:

Or how can I change the Service to accept UTF-8.
Well, I don�t know.
Any help is welcome.

Hi,
I don't know if this can help you, but I had a similar problem while invoking a web service. Eventually, I found out that the server was returning an html error page, and not the expected xml answer.
That's why the client code raises such an error... It means that the MIME type of the anser is text/html (for the html page) and not the text/xml type of the 'nominal' web service answer.
You can verify this by using a proxy to intercept the http request and answer involved in this web service invocation (use Fiddler for instance). Then, you will see that the server responds by sending an html page saying that something is wrong.
Hope this helps...

UTF-16 support

I'd like to determine what non-Latin characters can be displayed on my handset. Using the encoding UTF-16BE does not throw an exception and I can create Latin characters and basic symbols. However when I try Greek, Hebrew, and such the generated strings are blank.
I understand that full UTF-16 support is the manufacturer's preference, however these characters are displayed elsewhere in the UI (e.g. if I change languages). What's more, I've been told the phone UI is written in Java, though I can't confirm.
I imagine the problem could be a one of several levels:
1. The extended characters are accessible through some other encoding, just not UTF-16.
2. My code uses LWUIT, perhaps it cannot render these characters.
3. Extended characters aren't supported on the phone's JVM even though the native UI uses them.

Dude,
UTF-8: I'm looking to represent Asian symbols so unless I'm horribly wrong those aren't in UTF-8.Please have a look at [this UTF8 table|http://www.atm.ox.ac.uk/user/iwi/charmap.html] At my work place we have software that uses Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Greek, Russian and few more and all are achieved using UTF8.
Source values: I've dumbed it down as much as possible, by creating hard coded strings with various byte values. I can be confident in the syntax, endianness, and signed byte issues because a the Latin portion of UTF-16BE works fine. Does it mean that your string has value similar to: u023f,u002d,... and you do parsing of that to a byte array and then creating the String object by using this byte array and correct encoding identifier? Or do you hardcode the string you want to display using the actual characters? In second approach you have to make absolutely sure that your code editor or IDE (Eclipse, Netbeans, ...) use exactly the encoding that you are trying to achieve. Even when the text is correctly displayed on the computer screen does not guarantee that it will be saved and read using the same encoding, which you can appreciate is essential here.
Again I urge to use the UTF8 encoding in order to be sure about the font support. It is the simplest to implement of all Unicodes and for that reason vendors would choose it over any UTF-16.
Java native UI: This is just hearsay I've picked up. If this is the case, it's plausible that Samsung is running a JVM for the UI and another for client games and apps. It certainly makes sense from a mfg cost standpoint. It's sorta immaterial, other than being definite proof that the extended encoding exists in the Java libraries.JVM is a quite sizeable thing to run in order to get the UI. What would be the scenario if your Java UI threw an exception? I am not native app/UI expert, but unless Java is a integral part of the core system (like in Android), UI stays native. Again, I might be wrong here at it really does not matter in the context of your problem.

HTML editor with syntax highlighting and UTF-8 support

In an ongoing effort to move our lives into the cloud and into our pockets (and as a part of an article series for a tech blog), me and a friend are trying to completely replace the need for computers with our iPhones.
In some ways, it is going splendidly (Documents to Go Premium + foldable bluetooth keyboard = all my writing needs as a journalist solved). In others, concessions have to be made (as a practicing musician, my options are a bit limited, but with the help of Xewton Music Studio, Multitrack DAW/NanoStudio, etc, I can at least lay down some basic tracks, create basic MIDI compositions, etc).
However, there is one area in where we’ve made no headway at all. My friend has the great misfortune of being blessed with logic , and therefore, unlike me, does honest programming and web app designing work. And as far as we know, there is not a single HTML/script editor with more than just the bare, basic functions in the app store.
What we need is this:
* Syntax highlighting
* Support for UTF-8
A built-in FTP editor would be a nice bonus, but is not essential.
We found one for the iPad, but when we contacted the company behind the app, they revealed no immediate plans for an iPhone version. (They felt coding on the iPhone was, at best, impractical, but they did concede the fact that if there are indeed users who have that need, the existence of an iOS HTML editor would be justified, and possible lucrative, regardless of their feelings on the matter. On that ground, they promised to examine the possibilities to port their iPad app in the future, but so far, no signs.)
Does anyone know of such an app? Rest assured your assistance will be mentioned in the article series should you point us in the right direction

Unfortunately, my friend has offered his iPhone an ultimatum. No syntax highlighting, no computer replacement. It is strange that such as standardized feature has not found its way into any known HTML editor for iOS.
But FTPOntheGo seems to be a great app in general, so thanks!

UTF-8 Support in E-mail ID??

Is it possible to have UTF-8 compliant alias in Exchange 2013???
I am unable to add a new MB with alias in UTf -8 character. However, if I didn't provide an alias it will accept the logon name as its alias and logon name supports UTf-8. So Indirectly alias is supporting UTF-8.
In exchange 2010 , it does not support UTF-8 alias any how.
So is it a bug with Microsoft exchange 2013 ???

UTF-8 support in Web AS Java 6.40

Hi, All,
Our web application running on Web AS 6.40 with SQL Server 2000 needs to support multiple languages. We create the tables with column type NVARCHAR, set encoding scheme to UTF-8 for JDBC driver, add '<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %>' header in every JSP file and execute request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") before every request is posted to the server. Everything is fine when running the same application on Tomcat with the same database & JDBC driver, enter Chinese charater in web page, store them in table, display result back... But the application deployed in Web AS Java cannot save and show Chinese character correctly.
I think I must miss some points here because UME actually supports to create user and role in Chinese...
Any help is deeply appreciated.
John

I found what causes the problem.
I use resource bundle to handle i18n and one of bundle is myapp_zh.properties for Chinese locale. In browser I add Chinese [zh] in Language Preference then the web page should display Chinese character.
What puzzles me is that encoding of the page with Chinese characters is Chinese Simplified (GB2312) rather than UTF-8. Tomcat correctly sets page Encoding to UTF-8 since I specify <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %> in each JSP file. Why Web AS ignores this and returns Chinese character in GB2312?
Thanks a lot
John

UTF-16 Support on Solaris??

I am new to Solaris..I just have one question.
I know that Solaris supports UTF-8. Does Solaris support UTF-16.

Is it possible Solaris does not have support for UTF-16 encodings.?Seems very improbable... http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3.0/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html

[solved] tracker error initializing libicu support

Hey,
tracker-search from the command line gives me no results and then:
(tracker-search:28193): Tracker-WARNING **: Error initializing libicu support: 'U_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT_ERROR'
this is on my 64bit Arch Desktop. My 32bit Arch Netbook doesn't have this problem.
Edit: creating a new user on my desktop machine works as well
I really want to use the gnome-shell tracker search extension and I expect that it's not working because of that error
Edit2: Ok maybe interesting for some to now: the Problem was somehow in my region setting. I had English Language, but German format enabled. Because of that
I had no AM/PM behind my clock and this broke tracker somehow. After setting it to United States, everything works.

[confirmation that this tip solved the problem]
I had the same problem:
After not only changing Language to Deutsch but also "Formate" (english translation data formats?) to Deutschland with gnome-control-center, logging out/in again and rebuilding the tracker database my desktop search now works fine.
This program needs a new name, tracker is so hard to .. track

UTF/Unicode support

Hi,
Does Oracle Berkeley DB support unicode/utf-8 charset?
Could you please let me know?
Thanks,
ananth

Hello,
From the Berkeley DB Reference Guide at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/intro/dbisnot.html
Notice that Berkeley DB never operates on the value part of a record.
Values are simply payload, to be stored with keys and reliably
delivered back to the application on demand.
Both keys and values can be arbitrary byte strings, either fixed-length
or variable-length. As a result, programmers can put native programming language data
structures into the database without converting them to a foreign record format first.
If that does not answer your question, please let me know.
Thanks,
Sandra

Packages for UTF-8 support in S10?

Which packages do I need to have installed on my Solaris 10 systems in order to use UTF-8 locales? Specifically, I want to be able to do something like this:
# LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 asadmin start-domain domain1I want to run my JES app server with LANG set to a UTF-8 locale. When I do this right now I get a "could not set locale" error message.
Thanks,
Mark

If you just want en_CA.UTF-8 locale to be installed, you may need SUNWnamos (Northern America OS support) package.
To check, if the package is already installed:
pkginfo -l SUNWnamosOr check under /usr/lib/locale directory.

Query on utf-8 support

hi, I am using oracle 11g.
I want to insert utf-8 chars (chineese, japanees) chars in table.
I have already created tables with column data types 'varchar'.
my doubt is setting "NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8" is enough or do I need to change column data type to nvarchar.
please help.

Was the database created as a UTF8 database?
