Visual C++ reading unicode
When my college returns (through the computer) the programs we write, they write comments in Hebrew. But the comments show up as gibberish. How do I fix that? How can I get Visual C++ to show the Hebrew, and not gibberish??
You could just open a copy of the document in Notepad++ or something to read the comments. Also, you could try looking around at some of the project/document settings and see if there is a Unicode setting or something. Also make sure you are saving the files as Unicode (they *should* be since they have edited it but it might still be ASCII).
And when I have a program which work with files in ANCII coding, and i must do program witch will work with Unicode. What I can use for this?
There's also the possibility that those editors are producing Hebrew in a non-Unicode code page. If I'm not mistaken, Visual Studio can automatically recognize UTF-8, and probably UTF-16, even without the byte order mark.
If that's the case, Notepad++ won't be able to read them, either. You'll need to convert them using a conversion table. Programs such as Word and OpenOffice.org are good at this sort of thing.
It's not a bad idea to tell them not to change the encoding of the file, or to write comments in a different language.
