[Qt-interest] Problesm with utf-8 encoded XML andjapanese characters

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Thanks for the test case...

Of COURSE it works fine with it.. even with my full XML.. so now I have
to track down to see where its different...

Thanks again (and Girish as well..) its not the font, or the widget..
its actually in a qmenu and shows just fine.. in the test case :(

Scott

I cannot reproduce this (QT 4.5.2 on Linux).  I get the Japanese
characters reliably.
* With or without a byte-order-mark in the xml file.
* With text going to a QLabel
* qDebug() output of the string to unicode aware terminal (konsole)

My test harness:

#include <QtGui>
#include <QtXml/QDomDocument>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  QApplication app(argc, argv);
  QMainWindow mainWin;
  QLabel *label = new QLabel;
  mainWin.setCentralWidget(label);

  QDomDocument doc("mydocument");
  QFile file("test.xml");
  if (file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) {
    if (doc.setContent(&file)) {
      qDebug() <<
        doc.firstChildElement().firstChildElement().text();
      label->setText(
        doc.firstChildElement().firstChildElement().text()
      );
    }
    file.close();
  }

  mainWin.show();
  return app.exec();
}

Is it possible to build Qt without Unicode support?
