I am developing an application and testing it on the emulator. I am getting the weird (at least to me) error message "unsupported international call" when executing:
err =3D TxtConvertEncoding( true, NULL, (Char*)s, &lenSrc, //CHAR_ENCODING_VALUE(encoding), LmGlueGetSystemLocale(NULL), NULL, // just return the size &lenDst, charEncodingUTF8, "?", 1 );
Has anybody a clue on what it could be due and how fix it?
What version of the OS are you running with the Emulator? It sounds like something < 4.0.
TxtConvertEncoding was added in Palm OS 4.0. If you use TxtGlueConvertEncoding then you still do conversions on Sony Japanese devices built with Palm OS 3.5, but only between Shift-JIS and UCS-2, not UTF-8.
If you need to run on Latin-based pre-4.0 devices, I'd suggest creating your own hard-coded conversion from CP1252 to UTF-8, which wouldn't be hard. If you also have to work with Japanese & 3.5, then you could use the glue and subsequently convert UCS-2 to UTF-8, which is easy.
