Default Unicode - 09-07-2007 , 08:39 AM






Still no improvement about how Paradox can handle Unicode databases
(meaning, almost no way) ?

Since development on the BDE is non-existent it isn't likely to change
how it handles unicode on its own...

==========================

What? No such thing as "evolution"????

Compared to "Human DNA", the "Borland BDE" would be a piece of cake.

We just need to wait a little longer....

Bonne nuit Alain,

Michel Claveau has a solution using Python and Paradox ("Ponx") to handle
Unicode.
You can post in the French group: news.zoo-logique.org ->
programmation.Paradox to get more information.
The following quotes may help you to get in.

Quote:
Here is the message from Michel to connect to the Zoo

Bonsoir !

Depuis fin 2006, pour pouvoir poster sur le Zoo, il faut être
authentifié.

Pour cela, il faut aller sur ce site :
http://www.zoo-logique.org/accueil/register.php et remplir le
formulaire, avec
une adcresse e-mail valide.
Lorsque c'est fait, vous recevez un e-mail de confirmation, qui vous
permet de valider votre identifiant.

Je vous recommande fortement d'en profiter pour modifier le mot de passe
(il arrive que l'on ne puisse pas se
connecter au zoo, tant que le mot de passe original n'a pas été
modifié).

Ensuite, il faut attendre 5 minutes (minimum), avant de pourvoir se
connecter/poster ; cela pour éviter (selon B.G. le
re-validation intempestives).

Je précise que je ne suis pas à l'origine de ces contraintes, et que ce
n'est pas moi qui les gère.

@+

MCI

But if you wish you can keep :
login: zoo
password: entrer and you get a READ only access to the Zoo

you can too, use
loginonx
password: ponx
to read and write, but it is a temporary generic account that can be
deleted without notice.

Just an idea, not sure if it works..........
If unicode table was on sql server it might be possible to write sql

select
cast(fieldname1 as varchar(30)) as fieldnameInResult
from
tbl

Use sql and submit it as passthrough sql to the sql server,
and then use "cast" to return nvarchar(unicode) as varchar,
a datatype that pdox can actually handle.

In fact, my use would be with cyrillic languages only.
And I thought there could be some way to develop something to go from
cyrillic to latin and forth using ISO 9. And for resulting latin letters
which are still Unicode (like Å), use &#xxx;
Latin would be use to keep text in Paradox database, but it could be
then typed and viewed in Cyrillic.
Does anybody know if it has been done ? Can be done ?
