Well if the String has Encoding NIL then it is invalid for such comparision
until you
Define its encoding with DefineEncoding. (And remember you have to define it
what it actually is, since DefineEncoding is a promise of what it is, false
promise is no good). So if you for example know its UTF-8 data then you
define it as UTF-8.

Yeah, I tried that, but since one of the strings has encoding nil, that
isn't possible. Atleast it didn't work. I did string2=
string2.ConvertEncodings(string1.Encoding), I aslo tried it the other way
around, but one string still had UTF-8 and the other still NIL.
Thanks,

Subject: Compare 2 strings of differant encodings
Hi,
I've got 2 strings of different encodings, and I need to compare them case
sensitive (with StrComp, mode 0). But they aren't the same even when they
are the same. I gues that is because of the encoding. One of them has
UTF-8
and the other has NIL. I can't change the encoding with the string that
has
NIL. I guess that it does have an encoding, but it's unknow to realbasic.
But the weird thing is that both strings are made inside realbasic. So,
how
should I compare them, or what should I do before I compare them?
Maarten
