bentom Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hi, a question regarding to Unicode. with the code FileOpen($PlaylistFile, 2 + 8 + 128) you create a file which is UTF8 coded but with the "byte order mark". Unfortunatelly the Software which reads the playlistfile needs the coding without "BOM". Does anybody know how to get a proper coding.

bentom Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hi again, I found a texteditor that can convert the file into UTF8 w/o BOM. Unfortunatelly this has no scripting engine and has to be done manually. The only topic here in the forum I found was form 2007 and there was no support for UTF8 w/o BOM. I use the release 3.2.12.1 from June 2008. I would update if this is now supported. Anyone who has information on this? Regards, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentom Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 Hi, thank you very much for your answer. Unfortunatelly not. The format I get is ANSI. But no UTF8 w/o BOM. I checked this with Notepad++ Any other ideas, or does Autoit not support this coding Regards, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaFu Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Check out the _WinAPI_CreateFile() example in the UDF Help-File, should be able to do what you want. MY research came up with that it's capable of writing unicode and BOM has to be create explicitly... but of course I could be wrong ....

PsaltyDS Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hi, thank you very much for your answer. Unfortunatelly not. The format I get is ANSI. But no UTF8 w/o BOM. I checked this with Notepad++ There is already another example from trancexx, but I was wondering why you used Notepad++ to check the format. I ran this mod to trancexx's demo to verify it for my own education: ;1. $sPlaylistFile = @DesktopDir & "\PlayListVer1.txt" $hFile = FileOpen($sPlaylistFile, 2 + 8 + 128) FileWrite($hFile, "Hey hey") FileClose($hFile) $hFile = FileOpen($sPlaylistFile, 16) $bData = FileRead($hFile) FileClose($hFile) ConsoleWrite("$bData = " & $bData & @LF) ;2. $sPlaylistFile = @DesktopDir & "\PlayListVer2.txt" $hFile = FileOpen($sPlaylistFile, 2 + 8 + 16) FileWrite($hFile, StringToBinary("Hey hey", 4)) FileClose($hFile) $hFile = FileOpen($sPlaylistFile, 16) $bData = FileRead($hFile) FileClose($hFile) ConsoleWrite("$bData = " & $bData & @LF) The output is: >Running:(3.3.0.0):C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\autoit3.exe "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Scripts\Test1.au3" $bData = 0xEFBBBF48657920686579 $bData = 0x48657920686579 Compare the BOM here.
