CkCharset C++ Class Reference (Visual C++)
CkCharset
A component/class for converting character data from one encoding to another. This software is unique in that the data required for converting to/from the supported charsets is entirely embedded witin the Chilkat DLL/library. It does not depend on what code pages may or may not be installed on a particular computer. This allows programs to operate correctly regardless of the locale, OS version, or other factors.
Properties
void get_AltToCharset(CkString &str);
void put_AltToCharset(const char *charsetName);
If the ErrorAction property is set to 6, then this property controls how errors are handled. It specifies an alternate "To" charset. When a character in the input data cannot be converted to the target charset, an attempt is made to convert it to the AltToCharset. If that fails, the input character is dropped.
int get_ErrorAction(void);
void put_ErrorAction(int val);
Controls how errors are handled. When a character in the input data cannot be converted to the target charset, the action taken is controlled by this property. The possible settings are: (0) drop the error characters, (1) substitute the data set by the SetErrorBytes or SetErrorString method, (2) convert to a hex-escaped string (&#xXXXX), (3) RESERVED, (4) RESERVED, (5) RESERVED, (6) convert the error character to the AltToCharset instead, if that fails then drop the character, (7) Pass non-convertible characters to the output unchanged.
bool get_FromCharset(CkString &str);
bool put_FromCharset(const char *charset);
Tells the charset converter the charset of the input data for a conversion. Possible values are:
us-ascii
unicode
unicodefffe
