Serbian language support to VC 6.0
-
Hi all, I am not able to add Serbian language support to my project developed in MFC, VC 6.0 with UNICODE support. The Serbian messages are being displayed in different characters. I have added the Serbian language support to my system. Please tell me if any thing is to be done. Please help me...

Take some unicode font, e.g. Sylfaen. Does it support Serbian characters. I think it does. So what are the steps you done to make your app internationalized? I do the dfollowing things and my native language [Armenian] characters are shown correctly; *) Make the entire project UNICODE built *) Almost no quoted text inside the app source code *) Open mypapp.rc file [by WordPad and/or notepad] and save it as UNICODE file [have backup copy though]. *) Write Armenian symbols inside the .rc file. Note if your symbols are shown ok in the .rc file, they should be shown in the app's UI as well. Otherwise smth goes wrong with the app. And the last point; Have you tried to do the same in VC7 or greater versions? I'm skeptical about VC6 though not sure.

Hi Arman, Thanks for ur reply. Yes. i have made the entire project UNICODE build. Added the Serbian text in a string table of .rc file and tried to show it on the dialog when required. Even it is not working fine with the message box too. It is working fine in the VC2005. But my entire project is in VC 6.0. I have tried by making a dll in VC2005 and using it in VC 6.0 but still it is repeating the same. For example i have take the message "Sačekajte malo...". It is showing the message as "Sa?ekajte malo..." when pasted directly or "Sacekajte malo..." when pasted via notepad. I think we should add some tool or update to the VC6.0. But could not find what it is. Kishore.

I am trying to take Serbian language support and it is not there. I have already followed the steps mentioned in the article. Kishore

Is it just the Serbian language or unicode itself? Have you set up your application to handle unicode for sure? Just add an edit box and try typing unicode characters in it (not necessarily Serbian).

Can you show me that piece of code which loads string from the file and displays?
