>> Double Byte Character Set
> Is is 8 Bit decoding or I mess here everything ?
Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with this. My Answer I could give
you after googling on the word DBCS.
But: after googling again on "dbcs (8-bit|8bit|8 bit)" I found the
Information you where asking. It says:
===><====== http://www.double-byte.com/102800.htm ======
> DBCS is designed to support Asian languages, and uses both 8-bit and
> 16-bit character encoding. For ASCII, not ANSI, characters, the
> 8-bit encoding is used. For the Asian languages characters, the
> 16-bit encoding is used. Thus, implementing DBCS support in your
> application would require extra coding. You have to check if a
> character is an 8-bit character or a first/last 8-bit of an 18-bit
> character. There are different DBCS for different Asian languages.
> For example, Japanese has its own while Korean has its own character
> set. You might end up with a code for Japanese, another code for
> Korean, another for Simplified Chinese, and so on; how would you
> like to maintain that many codes for just one application?

Does this help you?
Enjoy your day :-)
