Need a few text files with unicode characters

Hi,

I'm just adding support for UTF8 files with no BOM but I need some example utf8 files that have non ASCII (0-127) characters in them otherwise the code just assumes that they are ASCII. If someone has a few text files with those sorts of characters in then save them as UTF8+BOM and attach them here.

For reasons I'm not quite sure of, it pleases me to be able to work with all the different sorts of text files and encodings and to have unicode support. Weird ;)

You're certainly getting ambitious with the code introducing auto-detection logic into it.

rawr.

Just doing detection for UTF8 with no BOM. Looks like every other editor I've looked expects a BOM to indicate UTF16 types. So that's what I'm doing as well. Apparently I could try and use IsTextUnicode() to detect BOM-less UTF16 formats but it's meant to be an epic fail function anyway and a little used file format.

That's kind of like a encoding fetish Jon.

So they suggest to use a function, which will do what it's supposed to do, but it also epically fails? Posted Image

I know it's a topic of 4 years old, but I was playing with C++ and I wanted to add that Autoit, does not interpret correctly the unicode file without BOM, example text file ("a最" - binary = 61 00 00 67), I think the correct use of IsTextUnicode should be

const int ANSI = 0, UTF_8 = 1, UTF16_LE = 2, UTF16_BE = 3, UTF32_LE = 4, UTF32_BE = 5, SCSU = 6, UNKNOWN_ENCODING = 7;

int GetFileEncodingEx(LPWSTR pzSourseFile) {
    BYTE pBuffer[4]; DWORD dwBytesRead;
    //  Open input file for reading, existing file only.
    HANDLE hFile = CreateFileW(pzSourseFile, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);                              //  No attr. template
    if (hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) {
        if (GetLastError() != ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION) { return 0; }
        //Try FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE to avoid the ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION ;
        hFile = CreateFileW(pzSourseFile, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);
        if (hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { return 0; }
    }
    if (!ReadFile(hFile, pBuffer, 4, &dwBytesRead, NULL)) { CloseHandle(hFile); return 0; }
    if (dwBytesRead < 2) { CloseHandle(hFile); return ANSI; }
    else if (*pBuffer == 0xFF) {
        if (pBuffer[1] == 0xFE) {
            if (dwBytesRead == 4 && pBuffer[2] == 0x00 && pBuffer[3] == 0x00) { CloseHandle(hFile); return UTF32_LE; }
            CloseHandle(hFile); return UTF16_LE;
        }
    }
    else if (*pBuffer == 0xFE) {
        if (pBuffer[1] == 0xFF) { CloseHandle(hFile); return UTF16_BE; }
    }
    else if (dwBytesRead > 2) {
        if (*pBuffer == 0xEF) {
            if (pBuffer[1] == 0xBB && pBuffer[2] == 0xBF) { CloseHandle(hFile); return UTF_8; }
        }
        else if (dwBytesRead == 4 && *pBuffer == 0x00 && pBuffer[1] == 0x00 && pBuffer[2] == 0xFE && pBuffer[3] == 0xFF) { CloseHandle(hFile); return UTF32_BE; }
    }
    LARGE_INTEGER liFileSize; INT iTextUnicode = IS_TEXT_UNICODE_UNICODE_MASK | IS_TEXT_UNICODE_REVERSE_MASK | IS_TEXT_UNICODE_NOT_ASCII_MASK;
    if (!GetFileSizeEx(hFile, &liFileSize) || liFileSize.QuadPart > 0xFFFFFFFF) { CloseHandle(hFile); return ANSI; /*ERROR*/ }
    LPBYTE lpBuffer = new BYTE[liFileSize.LowPart];
    ReadFile(hFile, lpBuffer, liFileSize.LowPart, &dwBytesRead, NULL);
    CloseHandle(hFile);
    IsTextUnicode(lpBuffer, dwBytesRead, &iTextUnicode);
    delete[] lpBuffer;
    if (!iTextUnicode) { return ANSI; }
    if ((iTextUnicode & IS_TEXT_UNICODE_REVERSE_MASK) == 0) { return UTF16_LE; }
    return UTF16_BE;
}

//or

int GetFileEncoding(HANDLE hFile) {
    BYTE pBuffer[4]; LONG dwHighPart = 0;
    DWORD dwBytesRead, dwLowPart = SetFilePointer(hFile, 0, &dwHighPart, FILE_CURRENT);

                if (dwBytesRead == 4 && pBuffer[2] == 0x00 && pBuffer[3] == 0x00) { return UTF32_LE; }
                return UTF16_LE;
            }
        }
        else if (*pBuffer == 0xFE) {
            if (pBuffer[1] == 0xFF) { return UTF16_BE; }

                if (pBuffer[1] == 0xBB && pBuffer[2] == 0xBF) { return UTF_8; }
            }
            else if (dwBytesRead == 4 && *pBuffer == 0x00 && pBuffer[1] == 0x00 && pBuffer[2] == 0xFE && pBuffer[3] == 0xFF) {

Autoit, does not interpret correctly the unicode file without BOM

How would you differentiate between "a最" - binary = 61 00 00 67 in UTF16-LE and "愀g" - binary = 61 00 00 67 in UTF16-BE?

I think it's what Jon refered to by saying:

 

but it's meant to be an epic fail function anyway

I do not do ??, but it does Microsoft

That is the maximum that can be done in this regard, the IsTextUnicode is a official function microsoft, is the best of the best even if you read on the web there are many complaints, but all notepad or text editor, refer and use the IsTextUnicode, in the official page of IsTextUnicode is everything well explained, microsoft himself says that in one point nothing is 100% suresave, but al notepad or text editor using the IsTextUnicode mod, so in general there some compatibility.

 

however no one uses the UTF16-BE, both in Windows or C ++ or other (Wide Character are UTF16-LE) so in general with unicode means the UTF16-LE, so the UTF16-LE takes precedence

Local $hFileOpen = FileOpen(@DesktopDir & "\text.txt", 26)
If $hFileOpen = -1 Then
    ;Error
Else
    FileWrite($hFileOpen, Binary("0x61000067"))
    FileClose($hFileOpen)
EndIf
and open the text.txt with notepad2.exe

 

or Windows NotePad
