UCS2 easier to use in Visual C++, than UTF encoding. What languages I can not support in UCS2 encoding? Nothing you're likely to care about or, more to the point, have fonts for. UCS2 gives you the Basic Multilingual Plane; you can find overviews of the assigned planes on the Unicode site 0 - Basic Multilingual Plane 1 - Supplementary Multilingual Plane (ancient symbols, Klingon, etc.) 2 - Supplementary Ideagraphic Plane (CJK unified ideographs extensions) 3 - Tertiary Ideographic Plane (ancient Chinese characters) 14 - Supplementary Special-Purpose Plane (tag characters and variations - ?) Of

I'm using R 3.1.1 on Windows 7 32bits. I'm having a lot of problems reading some text files on which I want to perform textual analysis. According to Notepad++, the files are encoded with "UCS-2 Little Endian" . (grepWin, a tool whose name says it all, says the file is "Unicode".) The problem is that I can't seem to read the file even specifying that encoding. (The characters are of the standard spanish Latin set -ñáó- and should be handled easily with CP1252 or anything like that.) > Sys.getlocale() [1] "LC_COLLATE=Spanish_Spain.1252;LC_CTYPE=Spanish_Spain.1252;LC_MONETARY=Spanish_Spain.1252

I'm looking for a code/lib in php that I will call it and pass a text to it and it will tell me: What is the encode I need to use in order to send this text as SMS (7,8,16 bit) How many SMS message I will use to send this text (it must be smart to count "segmenation information" like in http://ozekisms.com/index.php?owpn=612 ) do you have any idea of any code/lib exists that will do this for me? Again I'm not looking for sending SMS or converting SMS, just to give me information about the text Update: Ok I did the below code and it seems to be working fine, let me know if you have better

It seems that SQL Server uses Unicode UCS-2 , a 2-byte fixed-length character encoding, for nchar/nvarchar fields. Meanwhile, C# uses Unicode UTF-16 encoding for its strings (note: Some people don't consider UCS-2 to be Unicode, but it encodes all the same code points as UTF-16 in the Unicode subset 0-0xFFFF, and as far as SQL Server is concerned, that's the closest thing to "Unicode" it natively supports in terms of character strings.) While UCS-2 encodes the same basic code points as UTF-16 in the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP), it doesn't reserve certain bit patterns that UTF-16 does to

Updated question ¹ With regards to character classes, comparison, sorting, normalization and collations, what Unicode version or versions are supported by which .NET platforms? Original question I remember somewhat vaguely having read that .NET supported Unicode version 3.0 and that the internal UTF-16 encoding is not really UTF-16 but actually uses UCS-2, which is not the same. It seems, for instance, that characters above U+FFFF are not possible, i.e. consider: string s = "\u1D7D9"; // ("Mathematical double-struck digit one") and it stores the string "ᵽ9" . I'm basically looking for

I'm still trying to decide whether my (home) project should use UTF-8 strings (implemented in terms of std::string with additional UTF-8-specific functions when necessary) or some 16-bit string (implemented as std::wstring). The project is a programming language and environment (like VB, it's a combination of both). There are a few wishes/constraints: It would be cool if it could run on limited hardware, such as computers with limited memory. I want the code to run on Windows, Mac and (if resources allow) Linux. I'll be using wxWidgets as my GUI layer, but I want the code that interacts with
