RE: Response from Kannel

[Kevin Reed]

What he means is that you need to urlencode the message.  This converts
control and other characters into hex representations of the same and
changes spaces into pluses (+).

So the string:

$msg = "Hello,\nI am working";

urlencoded becomes:

$msg = "Hello%2C%0AI+am+working";

The comma was changed to %2C, the newline to %0A and all the space into +'s.

I'm not a java programmer but I'm sure there is a function or at least
examples of how to do this.  I use the following in Perl to accomplish
this:

# Encode a string into urlencoded format
sub encode {
    local($instring) = @_;

    # Replace all Non-Numerics with HEX Sequence
    $instring =~
s/[\x00-\x1F\x21-\x2F\x3A-\x40\x5B-\x60\x7B-\xFF]/&hexCodeFromChar($&)/eg;

    # Replace all spaces with Plus Character
    $instring =~ s/ /+/g;

    return($instring);
}

# Decode a string from urlencoded format
sub decode {
    local($instring) = @_;

    # Replace all PLUS characters with Spaces
    $instring =~ tr/+/ /;

    # Replace Hex Codes with real characters
    $instring =~ s/%(..)/pack("C",hex($1))/eg;

    return($instring);
}

# Function used by both
sub hexCodeFromChar {
    my ($char) = @_;
    my $asc = ord($char);
    return(sprintf("%c%02X", 37, $asc));
}
