I am trying to send chinese characters from an application to the Mobile phone using SMPP protocol in the kannel with some older version of kannel i.e 1.0.
What I know is that if we have to send Unicoded data we just send is any other binary data and set the data_coding feild to 8 and send it. The server understands it as a unicodinbg and interprets accordingly.
In the code this thing is handled as following ( I am giving the portion
of the code because the version I am using is too old 1.0 )
if(msg->smart_sms.flag_udh
== 1) {
/* As per GSM 03.38. */
submit_sm->data_coding = 245;
} else {
submit_sm->data_coding = 8; // This 8 is
for Unicoding
//submit_sm->data_coding =3; // For normal ASCII this is 3
}
strncpy(submit_sm->source_addr,
octstr_get_cstr(msg->smart_sms.sender), 21);
strncat(submit_sm->dest_addr,
octstr_get_cstr(msg->smart_sms.receiver), 21);
submit_sm->sm_length = octstr_len(msg->smart_sms.udhdata)
+
octstr_len(msg->smart_sms.msgdata);
octstr_get_many_chars(submit_sm->short_message, msg->smart_sms.udhdata, 0, 160);
octstr_get_many_chars(
submit_sm->short_message + octstr_len(msg->smart_sms.udhdata),
msg->smart_sms.msgdata, 0, 160 - octstr_len(msg->smart_sms.udhdata));
charset_iso_to_smpp(submit_sm->short_message);
// Do we need this function or shall we send the data just as binary data
and set the data_coding = 8 as above and drop this function.
Can any one suggest me what else I am required to do. Because finally
I am not able to see the characters on my phone.
Thanks in advance
