How can I make Russian letters visible in a dialog loaded from a LED file?

• When the LED file is Unicode, IupLoad() returns an erro

Answer 1

First, IUP does NOT supports Unicode. So to test it is useless.

UTF8MODE_FILE is for file names. Does not affect this case.

The UTF-8 string maybe affecting the LED parser although they shouldn't. Make sure the LED file does NOT have the UTF-8 BOM. I tested here your LED file and it works using IupLoad or IupLoadBuffer, but in both cases there are problems with the strings.

The solution is actually simple, just wrap your strings with quotes "", for instance:

LIST[VALUE=3, 1="я", 2="ты", 3="оно", 4="мы", 5="вы", 6="они", DROPDOWN=YES](do_nothing),

It works.
