iOS: handling HTTP request's unicode characters

Question

When I NSLog HTTP requests response string, it appears as \"ãÃÂïãÃâ¬ÃÂãÃÂÃâãÃÂ\" and something different appears on UILabel but not the same as I expect in Japanese/Ch

Answer 1

I managed to fix this. Following is the change!

ASIHTTPRequest *request = [ASIHTTPRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[dataUrl stringByAppendingFormat:@"%@",self.selectedID]]];
[request setResponseEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; -- > Wrong!!!

 request.defaultResponseEncoding = NSUTF8StringEncoding; --> Correct!
