Hello,
Maybe you can try this approach:
~=~
//compile this with:
//gcc -g `pkg-config --cflags --libs glibmm-2.4` -o test test.cc
//assuming the filename is test.cc .
#include <locale.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <glibmm.h>
using namespace std ;
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
//initialize the conversion functions correctly
setlocale (LC_ALL, "") ;
try {
//convert a fixed char size string (where each char is 1 byte
long) into an utf8 string
//(where each char can be between 1 and 4 bytes long)
//using the conversion functions
Glib::ustring utf8_str = Glib::locale_to_utf8 ("éçà") ;
} catch (Glib::ConvertError &e) {
cerr << "got converter error: " << e.what () << "\n";
return -1 ;
} catch (...) {
cerr << "got an unknown error\n" ;
return -1 ;
}
cout << "whoo, it works\n" ;
return 0 ;
}
~=~
My locale is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maybe this works for you.
Do not forget to call setlocale (LC_ALL, "") to initialize the charset
conversion subsytem.
Also, I think ustring("foo") cannot work properly if "foo" is not a
valid utf8 sequence.
In your case, "foo" is not. So if "foo" is a string for which each
character can fit in one byte, you should rather put "foo" in a
std::string and convert it to a valid utf8 string using
Glib::locale_to_utf8() .
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Dodji.
