Hmm,
Think it's a bug in Flashplayer 10.0.45.2 which is not in a later
version - 10.2.152.28

Hi,
I have run into a problem that seems pretty bizarre, but may be a
silly error on my part.
I have a function to encode strings in Flash to hex values, but it
needs to deal with various languages and special characters, so needs
to handle Unicode strings.
I had a function - it works fine in Windows and used to work on
the target platform - running 10.0.45.2 standalone debug player on
Gentoo Linux
All of a sudden - the encoding has stopped working and is creating
garbage so is not working any more.
We have changed the hardware and probably the kernel version
lately, so this is the only thing that I think which could effect it,
but I maybe wrong.
I have an old function / workaround which I can use, but if
someone could explain wtf is going on I would be greatful. Code is
posted below for your amusement.
Thanks
Glen

In contrast, this function works fine:
public function UniStr2UTF8Hex(str:String):String {
var test:String = "";
for (i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
var ucs:int = str.charCodeAt(i);
var ch:String;
if (128 > ucs) {
ch = ucs.toString(16);
if (1 == ch.length) {
ch = "0" + ch;
}
test += ch + " ";
} else if (128 <= ucs && 2047 >= ucs) {
ch = Number(192 + (ucs / 64)).toString(16);
if (1 == ch.length) {
ch = "0" + ch;
}
test += ch + " ";
ch = Number(128 + (ucs % 64)).toString(16);
if (1 == ch.length) {
ch = "0" + ch;
}
test += ch + " ";
}
}
debug("UniStr2UTF8Hex", "Test str " + test, Dbg.DEBUG_HIGH);
return test.split(" ").join("");
}
