Listbox & unicode

karageur

Hi guys again!
New trouble with listboxes.

Does it really support UNICODE strings?
I use this command
"'^LDA-',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_ADDRESS),',1,',itoa(strContent.nIndex),',',WC_TP_ENCODE(strContent.wcName),',"',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_PORT),',',itoa(strContent.nIndex),'"'"

WC_TP_ENCODE(strContent.wcName) & uniflag = 1 here is NOT working as I get this result


These two marked strings have the same content.
Listbox code above
And this is button code (on the top of the screenshot)
"'^UNI-', itoa(LABEL_CHOOSEN_ENTRY) ,',0,',WC_TP_ENCODE(strContent[24].wcName)"
As you can see it shows OK.
But how to make listbox to show UNICODE string??
Anyone please!

I tried many combinations with no luck.
One of the tries ...
"'^LDA-',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_ADDRESS),',1,',itoa(strContent.nIndex),',',wc_encode(strContent.wcName, wc_format_utf8,1),',"',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_PORT),',',itoa(strContent.nIndex),'"'"

wc_encode(strContent.wcName, wc_format_utf8,1) is used here

karageur

"'^LDA-',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_ADDRESS),',1,', itoa(strContent.nIndex),',',strContent.wcName,',"',itoa(LIST_TABLE_CONTENT_PORT),',',itoa(strContent.nIndex),'"'"

Here is straight forward sending - strContent.wcName


Any ideas ???

Looks like a bug to me. Have you reported this to AMX TS? If you send the same unicode text to the panel it should show up identically, list box or not. I would have to think there is a bug in the LDA command when processing unicode. Have you tried this on various panels including iDevices?

I haven't done anything with listboxes since they aren't well supported. I would just use TXT or UNI and not bother with list boxes myself.

PS: Are you storing these strings in an identical manner and using all the correct WC functions: WC_GET_BUFFER_STRING(wcMyString,3)?

I haven't told TS yet.
The strings are identical because the source is one & the same - strContent.wcName.
I tried only on iDevice.

Have you got an AMX panel to try it on? I'm guessing its a panel problem not a code problem.

Is R4 suitable for this?

Touch Panel Control Team

Unicode parsing for the ^LDA command has now been added in TPControl, and will be included in a future application release.

Thanks for the clear example/description.
