Hi
I tried with the suggested encoding but still no success. >From the output below, I guess ICONV support is included.

I just want to give a try using MarshalAsAttribute.

The c# mapscript doesn't specify explicit conversion during the marshaling. In this case I assume an unicode to Charset.Ansi conversion will automatically takes place by default. Best regards, Tamas 2009/2/6 Murty Maganti <[email protected]> Hello I am having some issues using Arabic text as labels. I am using C# map script. I am setting the following at runtime labelObj label = classObj.label; label.encoding = "CP1256"; label.text = "some text in Arabic"; (At rune time in VS, I can see the text is actually in Arabic) But labels are displayed as '?????'. Is there any conversion I need to do before setting the text value. How are the string represented in the underlying mapscript dll (ASCII or Unicode?). As I was reading in the MSDN, the default marshalling uses LPStr which is a single byte of ASCII. Does it mean that first I need to convert from Unicode to ASCII in C# before setting the value. Appreciate any help. Thanks Murty _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
