transform "@S" in UTF8 BUG

[Marek Długosz]

Hi!

I have found a bug in transform with "@Sxx" template 

hb_cdpselect('UTF8EX')

? transform('śńć','@S3') -> ś♣   

Regards

Hi,

There's probably no bug, you just need to perform conversions correctly.

There's a cost to using CP/Char. It can be simple, confusing, complex or *dangerous.

* With careless use, corrupt index without realizing, without message. 

// Hurricane

REQUEST HB_CODEPAGE_UTF8EX

FUNCTION MAIN

   LOCAL cCP, cVal

   

   cVal:='śńć'

   for each cCP in { nil, 'UTF8EX' }

      ? '------------------------'

      hb_cdpselect(cCP)

      ? 'CP', hb_cdpselect()

      ? LEN(cVal)

      ? hb_utf8Len(cVal)

      ? transform(cVal,'@S3')

      ? transform(cVal,'@S6')

     

   NEXT

   RETURN NIL

Note:

I suggest using the Harbour Users group, it is easy to confuse incorrect use with bug.

The Harbour Developers group is constantly being used incorrectly: support, useless matters/polls, even to complain about Harbour, with an example of purposely wrong and meaningless syntax, syntaxes of other languages...

It should behave exactly the same

? transform('śńć','@S3') -> ś♣   

? transform('śńć','XXX') -> 'śńć'
