Hi Pushkar,
relying on XMLString::transcode depends on the current locale; so I
wouldn't do the call to setlocale if you know that the input string was
entered using the current shell locale. As for the other attempt, you
are creating an UTF-8 transcoder and asking it to convert the input
string, but this would only work if your shell locale is UTF-8.
So, either work with whatever locale is used by the shell
(XMLString::transcode) or create the appropriate transcoder for the
input string you are dealing with (don't blindly use UTF-8).

Hi All,
I am facing problem while transcoding korean chars on Solaris.
Some details:
Xerces Version: 2.2
Solaris: 5.8
Locale: Korean
The code works fine on AIX and Windows ( for both en_US and korean
locale )
I receive korean data as multie byte char* from database and to
transcode I used the "XMLString::transcode" method.
When I write the transcoded XMLCh* in xml, the string is distorted.
I tried using XMLTranscoder with no results.
To debug the problem I have written a small C style program
(OnlyXerces.cpp) which simulates the output (it receives the korean
chars as argument).
I have attached the program, the console output from the program and
the data from the generated xmls.
Would be great if someone would point out the problem in my code or
divert me to a alternative / better approach.
Regards,
Pushkar

unsigned int charsEaten = 0;
unsigned int length = strlen(strIn);
unsigned char* sizes = new unsigned char[ length + 1 ];
outputStr = new XMLCh[ length ];
* unsigned int chars_stored = utf8Transcoder->transcodeFrom((const
XMLByte*) strIn, length, outputStr, length, charsEaten, sizes ); *
... write xml using "outputStr"
