Unmarshal problem with German Strings

Hi,
I am passing a String that its content is a UTF-8 encoded XML to
JAXB unmarchal method.
in some places the XML content contains,German letters ( <tag>german words</tag>).
after running unmarchal on these XML content the Geramn Strings got Gebrish.
the Geramn letters passed OK to the JAXB unmarchal method.
Please assist.
Thanks,
shimon.

I have an umlaut problem also, but in my case I want to be rid of it. I am looking for an explanation of why some umluts appear within my Apex app. when moving PL/SQL between servers.
I am going from Server A workspace A (development) to Server B workspace B (production) with a PL/SQL package. When the package renders on Server B the umlauts show up on certain labels. I was able to trace it back to the PL/SQL code that replaced the &nbsp with a space when comparing Server A version to Server B. I had saved it from Server A using Toad and recompiled using SQL*PLUS into Server B. Once I found each occurrence of the space and replaced it the umlauts disappeared, which was great. But I was curious so I saved the package from Server B using Toad and recompiled it back into Server A and the umlauts appeared again within Apex labels.
It appears there are some differences between my servers, web servers, Apex, something else, etc., but it has so far eluded my detection. I compared all my NLS settings, in both databases and both DADS and they are identical. My O/S is identical, my Apex is the same (development apex running on both servers, same version). My workspace name is different and my schema name is different.
When I look at the source code using TOAD on the server the umlauts do not show and nor do they show when I save the package. It seems only when I go to a different server and recompile that the umlauts appear.
Anyone have ideas? Thanks.

Problem with output string to command

hey i have no idea why this aint working
its a simple output string to command.
what it is supposed to do is make a new directory given by the input string
e.g. mkdir /home/luke/dep
thanks for the help
//methods input save files
     saveFile = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Save Files To : ");
     //method command for saving files
     //Stream to write file
     FileOutputStream fout;
     try { Process myProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("mkdir" + saveFile );
      InputStreamReader myIStreamReader = new InputStreamReader(myProcess.getInputStream());
      fout = new FileOutputStream ("file.txt");
      while ((ch = myIStreamReader.read()) != -1) { new PrintStream(fout).print((char)ch); } }
          catch (IOException anIOException) { System.out.println(anIOException); }

What you fail to understand is that "aint working" and "Problem with output string to command" tells us absolutely squat about what your problem is. This is the same as saying to the doctor "I'm sick" and expecting him to cure you. As mentioned by Enceph you need to provide details. Do you get error messages? If so post the entire error and indicate the line of code it occurs on. Do you get incorrect output? Then post what output you get, what output you expect. The more effort you put into your question the more effort others will put in their replies. So until you can manage to execute a little common sense then the only responses you will get will be flames. Now is your tiny little brain able to comprehend that?

Apex 4.0 Cascading Select List: ajax problem with german umlaute

Hi everybody,
Apex 4.0
Dad PlsqlNLSLanguage: GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8MSWIN1252
I have problems with german umlaute and ajax cascading select lists (Cascading LOV Parent Item).
The data is populated without a page refresh in the select list when the parent select list changes but special signs like german umlaute are shown as weird characters.
Seems like there is some charset problem with ajax.
This is the only part of the application where special signs like umlaute are messed up. Everything else is fine.
I allready tried to figure out if I can escape the umlaute in the javascript (file apex_widget_4_0.js) but no success here.
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Markus

Hi Markus,
your specified character set in your DAD is wrong. As mentioned in the installation instructions at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/install.40/e15513/otn_install.htm#CHDHCBGI , Oracle APEX always requires AL32UTF8.
>
3. Locate the line containing PlsqlNLSLanguage.
The PlsqlNLSLanguage setting determines the language setting of the DAD. The character set portion of the PlsqlNLSLanguage value must be set to AL32UTF8,
regardless of whether or not the database character set is AL32UTF8. For example:Regards

Problem with german special characters in APEX

Hi,
we have a problem with all the special characters in german language in our Application.
APEX version 3.1.0.00.32 is installed on a oracle database 9.2.0.6.0
The nls_characterset of the database is: American_America.WE8ISO8859P1
We have modified the wdbsvr.app file on our HTTP-Server like it's shown in the installationguide for APEX and have set the nls_lang parameter to American_America.AL32UTF8.
If I look at the source code of the html-pages of our application, there are already the following settings in the header of every page:
meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"
With this settings all the german special characters like ä ö ü are not shown correctly in the browser.
What can I do that the pages are shown correctly?
Thanks for help!

Hi Petra,
ok, so my guess was correct. So the solution is to set the charset attribute in the HTML header to "charset=UTF-8". This is actually the way it should be. But I'm wondering why it is not in your case? Are you using a custom template for the page(s) in question where the charset attribute is set to a custom value? The meta tags in the HTML header are usually set by/through the #HEAD# substitution string in the header definition section of the page template, cp. one of the page templates in Shared Components --> Templates. And as far as I know you are not able to change this substitution string, you can only switch the inclusion on/off with the option "Include Standard CSS and JavaScript" in each page definition. (I might be mistaken, though, I'm quite new to APEX...)
Regards
Frank

Mysql problem with german special characters

hi,
I wrote a software and it worked quite good, but after I installed it on a new machine with j2se 1.4 I've problems with the german special characters.
this code works good on the old machine (jdk 1.3.1) and prints the wanted characters like �,�,�.
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
java.sql.Connection conn;
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb?user=testuser&password=xxxx");
Statement s = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet r = s.executeQuery("select something from testtb where id='1'");
r.first();
System.out.println( r.getString(1) );
but on the new machine (j2se 1.4) I only receive the character ?.
I updated my org.gjt.mm.mysql to the current MySQL Connector/J 3.0.9 and added
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb?user=testuser&password=xxxx&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=ISO-8859-1");
but I've got still the same problem.
Thanks in advance
Markus

with "wanted characters like �,�,�"
I meant: like ä,ü,ö

Problems with german umlauts when Migration from MS Access to Oracle

When I make a Migration from MS Access 97 to Oracle 8.1.5, I have Problem with the germans characters (umlauts). The Oracle is using the rigth character Set for german characters. What can I do? Is it e problem from the MS Access ODBC Driver or the Oracle ODBC Driver?

Is your character set for Oracle set up to UTF8??

Problem with a string method

Hello, I am working on a program that converts Roman numerals to Arabic numbers and the opposite. I have the Arabic to Roman part down, yet Roman to Arabic part is causing troubles for me.
I know that there are many solutions out there, yet I would like just solutions within my code that would fix the problem it has.
Instead of the whole code, here's the method that changes Roman to Arabic.
     //method to convert Roman numerals to Arabic numbers
     public static int toArabic (String x)
          int arabica=0;
          char chars;
          for (int y=0; y<=(x.length()-1); y++)
               chars=x.charAt(y);
               switch (chars)
                    case 'C':
                         if( x.length() == 1)
                              arabica+=100;
                              y++;
                         else if (x.charAt(y+1)=='M')
                              arabica+=900;
                              y++;
                         else if (x.charAt(y+1)=='D')
                              arabica+=400;
                              y++;
                         else
                              arabica+=100;
                         break;
                    case 'X':
                         if(x.length() == 1)

                              y++;
                         else if (x.charAt(y+1)=='L')
                              arabica+=40;
                              y++;
                         else
                              arabica+=10;

                         else if (x.charAt(y+1)=='X')
                              arabica+=9;
                              y++;
                         else if (x.charAt(y+1)=='V')
                              arabica+=4;
                              y++;
                         else
                              arabica++;
                         break;
                    case 'M':
                         arabica+=1000;
                         break;
                    case 'D':
                         arabica+=500;
                         break;
                    case 'L':
                         arabica+=50;
                         break;
                    case 'V':
                         arabica+=5;
                         break;
There's a problem with this, however, is that whenever I put something in like XX, CC, XXX, or II, the program says
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 2
at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:687)
at RomanNumerals.toArabic(RomanNumerals.java:172)
at RomanNumerals.main(RomanNumerals.java:33)
I think this problem is caused by the if-else and else-if statements in my method for cases C, X, and I, as this problem doesn't come up when I do similar things to cases without the if statements. Could you perhaps find out what is causing this problem? I've been working on it for days after finishing the rest and I can't figure it out.
Thanks

Hi,
we have updated our SAP Gui to version 7.20 lately and have some serious problems now with entering German Umlauts 'üöäÜÖÄß' into any editable ALV grid.
This means when typing in e.g. 'ü', the grid immediately removes this character and replaces it by, well, by nothing. It just ignores this character at all.
SAP Gui is currently at patch level 3 . The correct version is 7200.1.3.3190, build 1196830. Running German Windows XP clients with service pack 3. ERP is running SAP ECC 6.0.
Is this a known problem? Has sbdy. a workaround this?
Edit: Just found the release notes for SAP Gui 7.20 Lvl 3:
2010/09/02 Texts get garbled while typing umlaut character in ALVGrid, Note 1503081
This note, however, is not open for public view. OTH this means SAP was aware of this problem and tried to correct it to no avail so far.
Thanks,
Michael

Hi Martin,
where did you get this info? Any official SAP note available? Do you encounter similar problems?
We, too, noticed that uploading and downloading files from directories with German Umlauts, this fails now,too. There may be problems with files, too, however, we did not check this so far. The previous SAP Gui, I guess it was 7.10, didn't have any problems with this.
I start wondering if SAP Germany have ever tested this? Or do they not use Umlauts anyway

Comma problem with global string variable

Hi,
I'm fiighting with comma problem for global string variable. I've on page string for example "7nndqrr52vzyb,0" and by dynamic column link I'm assigning this string to global variable. Then I'm trying to display value of that global variable on another page but I see only string till comma, nothings more. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong because when I'm trying to assign that value normally by computation process as a constant value is fine and see on another page correct string. I'll be really glad for help.
Thanks
Cheers,
Mariusz

When it tries to display the string, it sees the comma and wants to believe the string is terminated. You could escape the , in the string or replace it with a different character..

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).

Problem with German InDesign CS4 Trial

Since the last week im trying to use the Adobe InDesign CS4 Trial Version on my Computer but i does not work really. I have downloadet the German Version but after the installation it runs in Englisch and the Toolbars on the left and the right side are missing. Before i'm using the CS3 Version at the same Computer and it works perfekt. I tried the CS4 Trial on an different Computer in our office and it works perfekt but this Computer have Microsoft Windows XP Professional.
I read in the System requirements that Vista 64bit is not zertified but why does the CS3 work perfekt and the CS4 make those Problems?
I hope anybody can held me......
My Computer:
Windows Vista business 64bit
PHENOM Quad Core 2,4Ghz Prozessor

ATI Fire GL Grafic Card

Thank you for suggesting workaround #1!
I have been struggling with bookmarking issues for years here on CS4. I am not bookmarking text frames, simply bookmarking pages, but I have been having problems as described. I thought I researched it thoroughly online, but I was so relieved to find and try this option today.
I have a 50 page InDesign price book. Every page is bookmarked. After exporting as a PDF some of the bookmarks work fine and some take me to the wrong page. In InDesign CS4, I can click through the bookmarks and everything works as expected. Every bookmark takes me to the page I assigned it to...perfect! However, once exported as a PDF I have issues. In Preview (Mac OS 10.8) or Adobe Reader, some bookmarks are fine and some direct me to the incorrect page. I tried Adobe Reader thinking maybe the issue was with Preview, but not only is the problem with both programs--they error consistently. The bookmarks take me to the same incorrect page in both Preview and Reader.
Exporting as a INX file and reimporting into InDesign CS4 is the only way I have been able to get this to work. I originally switched to InDesign for two reasons: 1. I was experiencing the same problem in Adobe Acrobat when assigning bookmarks so I hoped using another program would help. 2. I am rebuilding the price book page by page in InDesign. (Some pages just pull from a PDF document and some are original--created in InDesign CS4. Eventually all pages will be InDesign original files. I'm not sure those details matter, but that is what I have for content in my document.)
Thank you! Thank you! I really appreciate that you took the time to suggest this for the rest of us! I can finally distribute a correctly bookmarked price book to our reps.

"Host string" entry to connect through SQL*Plus is the SID entry from the tnsnames. Not the parameter host=...
This is the first parameter, something else like the following :

Pages 2.0.2 has problems with German umlaut characters and hangs.

The problem has occured when I had the idea to rename the style names to have exported html files wider accepted by other browsers.
Therefore I tried to rename used style names by replacing encountered umlaut letters by their transcriptions e.g. "Überschrift 1" by "Ueberschrift 1" and so on. But when doing so, the program was freezing while the last changed style name was vanishing and did not come back at all.

I cannot reproduce your problem. I rename überschrift 1 to Ueberschrift. Logically it moves to the bottom of the list, but it is still there and nothing hangs.
Does this happen in all your documents or only one?
Does it happen using all templates or only one?
Are you working in German all the time, or have you switched to English in the mean time?
Do you have access to other computers with the problem, or have you seen it only on yours?
Have you renamed other styles like "Text" or "Titel" without problem?
If you start Pages in English, do you have the same problem?

The problem with the strings Convert each other

Hello all,
Could you help me to solve the following problem using LV7.1? Thank in advance.
How can I convert a string of "hexadecimal value" with Normal display style to other string of " the same hexadecimal value" with Hex display style?
Best regards,
Evan_Lv

Hi Evan,
look at the attachment
At the moment there is no error checking (any characters other than (0-9|A-F|a-f) will give an error; only even number of chars is converted). You can do the error checking as an exercise on your own!

AS2 Sender problem with German "Umlaute"

Hello experts,
I have an AS2 sender adapter sending orders into my SAP system. My problem is though that it deletes all German "Umlaute" before converting it into XML.
I used to use the "CallBicXIRaBean" to do the Encoding with ISO-8859-1 and it did not work. So now I am using the "CharsetConversion" to do that but it still does not work.
In the Module of the AS2 sender I am using:
1) CharsetConversion
- sourceDest --> MainDocument
- targetDest --> MainDocument
- sourceEnc --> ISO-8859-1
- targetEnc --> ISO-8859-1
2) CallBicXIRaBean
- mappingName --> E2X_ORDERS_UN_D93A
3) localejbs/CallSapAdapter
- 0
Does anyone have an idea what I have to change?
Thank you very much for your help!
Best regards,
Peter

Hello Iddo,
Thank you for your answer.
When I expect Umlaute in a message I always use ISO-8859-1 and not UTF-8.
The Umlaute are actually deleted. For example the German "für" looks like this "f". Or "Präferenzsituation" looks like this: "Prerenzsituation". So it kills the Umlaut and the following character.
The sender insists that he sends the messages with Umlaute. Now I activated the AS2 Message Dumping and hopefully will see what the message really looks like. Maybe the Umlaute are already deleted when they get to the AS2 adapter. I hope to find out soon.
Best regards,
Peter
