I need to write some extended ascii characters(®€ etc) to DOORS.
I am sending this request through a JSP page that invokes a java code which in turn talks to DXL code through windows socket.
These characters are reaching DOORS but anything other than ASCII(0-127) appears as question marks (?) in DOORS.

DOORS stores data in ANSI format. I need to send data in UTF-8 so,How can I convert data in ANSI format as to make DOORS understand what it is receiving nad interpret it accoedingly.

how can I achive this? any idea?

Hi Manju,

there are two undocumented functions which may help you:

string ansi(string)
string utf8(string)

Another undocumented thing (I do not really know what it does ) is

pragma encoding,"UTF-8"

It is used in example scripts delta.inc, deltabuff.inc and deltabin.inc without any description
--> So your guess is as good as mine



Greetings
Reik
