Hi,

Yes, Scribble will work if you run on English OS with Japanese as language for non-Unicode programs.]]> Wed, 16 Jun 2010 08:41:25 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58972&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58972 <![CDATA[Japanese Menu without UNICODE compilation : It is possible to display MBCS...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58971&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58971 Author: Smucker

It is possible to display MBCS on an English system, but it requires changing the system locale, so your system becomes kind of hybrid.

1) You have to make sure all the fonts you use include the proper characters.

2) The user has to set the Language for non-Unicode programs (aka system locale) appropriately in Control Panel - Region and Language - Administrative.

3) Since disk file names, etc., are stored in Unicode, only standard ASCII and files from your selected language from (2) will be handled correctly in your program. This is because the UNICODE->MBCS conversions will fail for characters that cannot be represented in the current locale.

It's much, much better to use UNICODE.

I took Debug version(NON-UNICODE) of scribble application. Then switching of application language to Japanese works fine in two scenarios:
1. Run application in XP Japanese OS
2. Run in XP English OS with the following setting - Set the Japanese language for display of non-unicode characters in Control Panel->Regional and Language Settings->Advanced.

The conversion from WideCharToMultiByte is successful in the above two scenarios whereas it does not convert correctly XP English]]> Wed, 16 Jun 2010 05:46:25 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58970&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58970 <![CDATA[Japanese Menu without UNICODE compilation : You can&#039;t display Japanese...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58969&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58969 Author: Barto

You can't display Japanese text on an English OS unless you use UNICODE.]]> Wed, 16 Jun 2010 04:36:07 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58969&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58969 <![CDATA[Japanese Menu without UNICODE compilation : Hi Oleg Thank you very much for...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16813&PID=58948&title=japanese-menu-without-unicode-compilation#58948 Author: vaddiprasad

Hi Oleg

Thank you very much for the prompt response. The scribble sample works without any issues when it is installed/tested on Japanese operating system. However, I am trying to make this work on an english operating system.

My requirement is to run scribble sample on english OS and to make sure that the menu items are displayed in Japanese when the japanese language option is selected.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

regards

Hi
 
I am trying to generate the menu titles using an XML file which has the menu items in Japanese. I am using the non unicode configuration of code jock toolkit to retrieve the Japanese menu titles but the menu entries are created in junk characters.
 
I looked into sample applciation SCRIBBLE, which is generating Japanese menu items by using the UNICODE configuration. I would like to know about How to get the menu items of the SCRIBBLE application in Japanese language without using the Unicode compilation.
 
Please let me know
 
Regards
 
Prasad
