Codepage 437

[josepvr]

Hi!
I need to read some files saved in a old DOS machine, my problem is the encoding of this files is Codepage 437 and some characters are not displayed well.

I've read the QTextCodec documentation but the CP437 encoding is no supported.

Can somebody help me?

Thanks!

Hi

1. If you have access to the files, the best thing would be to convert them via a tool to utf8 and use these files with Qt.

2. Write your own QTextCodec class. Have for example a look at http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/src/host/qemu-neo1973/phonesim/lib/serial/qatutils.cpp (Search for QCodePage437Codec)

Solved replacing Hex codes in:
cp437FromUnicode[256] =
{...}

and

static ushort const cp437ToUnicode[256] =
{....}


Thanks!
