tamil

I need to convert unicode string to unicode characters. for eg:Language Tamil "கமலி"=>'க','ம','லி' i'm able to strip unicode bytes but producing unicode characters is became problem. byte[] stringBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes("கமலி"); char[] stringChars = Encoding.Unicode.GetChars(stringBytes); foreach (var crt in stringChars) { Trace.WriteLine(crt); } it gives result as : 'க'=>0x0b95 'ம'=>0x0bae 'ல'=>0x0bb2 'ி'=>0x0bbf so here the problem is how to strip character 'லி' as it as 'லி' without splitting like 'ல','ி'. since it is natural in Indian language by representing consonant and vowel

How do I split Tamil characters in a string? When I use preg_match_all('/./u', $str, $results) , I get the characters "த", "ம", "ி", "ழ" and "்". How do I get the combined characters "த", "மி" and "ழ்"? I think you should be able to use the grapheme_extract function to iterate over the combined characters (which are technically called "grapheme clusters"). Alternatively, if you prefer the regex approach, I think you can use this: preg_match_all('/\pL\pM*|./u', $str, $results) where \pL means a Unicode "letter", and \pM means a Unicode "mark". (Disclaimer: I have not tested either of these

Okay, So my problem is that I have a XML Tamil (unicode) feed, I want to take this and display it in an Android application.

How do I solve this? How I solved this is, I first mapped the unicode to to the font Bamini with the help of http://www.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/ltrl/services/feconverter/ . Then it was a matter of just replacing the unicode character with the Bamini character. I send the text into that

I try to install Tamil font name Bamini.ttf in xcode 4.2 and I made the specific changes in info.plist . Yet its not showing in Interface builder? Can any one help me to sort out this issue? As far as I know new font that you've installed will never be listed in Interface builder.However you can use it in your project like this: Import yourfont.ttf into your project (check the "copy items into destination group's folder" and "add to targets"). Open appname-info.plist a. add a new row and name it Fonts provided by application (It's an array of strings) b. add an entry with the Bamini.ttf Then

I developed a Tamil news application in android version 2.3.3 . However, Tamil fonts have only been properly developed in android versions 4.0 and beyond. I want to display them in all versions of android mobile. I tried to solve the problem with some Tamil fonts, such as bamini and mylai , but they only worked in higher android versions. First of all you have to understand that there is no Tamil Language support in Android OS (except few Samsung & SE mobiles) till ICS(4.0). Even then it had bugs and full support is provided with Jelly Bean (4.2). You will only see boxes if you use Unicode
