UNICODE

[The_Server]

Hi, all. ======== I want my app to support unicode. There for I want to know the unicode structure. Unicode characters are typed as short (2 * char). My guess is... that the short is the character number in the ascii table. My friend's guess is... that the 1st char is the table type, and the 2nd char is the character number in the ascii table. Can some please enlighten me ? thanks. BTW: come to #CodeProject on DalNet (mIRC)

Hi For the first 255 charachters the unicode codes matches the ansi table. Instead of having different tables with 255 charachters each unicode is one big table with roughly 65000 charachters covering the worlds all different languages and some special symbols aswell. /Per

So how do I know the structure of this one big table with more then charachters? How can I know where one language ends and the other begins ? BTW: come to #CodeProject on DalNet (mIRC)

You could look in the Charachter Map in your accessories. Some fonts supports Unicode. I'm not sure but I think you have to have w2k to be able to see the Unicode charchters. /Per
