Reading the file in OOo Basic with 'Open sFile for Input' and showing

I assume Basic's Open uses as encoding for the given file the value of 
osl_getThreadTextEncoding (which is something like OOo's abstraction of 
the text encoding in use in the system, which typically happens to be 
UTF-8 in Ubuntu, but MS-1252 on a Western European Windows; the latter

can tell Basic to use a specific encoding for a given file.

But reading the same file with OOoBasic on Windows, does not show the
special character properly.
If I save as ISO-8859-15 in gedit, it does show fine on Windows.
But of course (?) not on Ubuntu.

Is this a general OS problem with the text-encoding? Does OOoBasic do
something wrong?

There is no argument available in Basic.

Searching for osl_getThreadTextEncoding leads me to OStringToOUString.

Grepping for that, I see quite some entries as e.g.
   rtl::OStringToOUString( aString, RTL_TEXTENCODING_UTF8 )
so I guess in the code it could be possible.

OK, thanks for the pointer anyway ;-)

Hi,

You can use api streams like XTextInputStream and method setEncoding.
