Character encoding issues

[yagabey]

Hello,
Do you mean something like that:

cout<<"Author name ?\n";
    QTextCodec::setCodecForLocale(QTextCodec::codecForName("eucTR")); 
    cin>>author;
    searchedAuthor=author;//searchedAuthor is a QString

cout<<"Author name ?\n";
    QTextCodec::setCodecForLocale(QTextCodec::codecForName("eucTR")); 
    cin>>author;
    searchedAuthor=author;//searchedAuthor is a QString

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I tried that; but the result didn't change.
And how will i know if "eucTR" exists or not?(is there a list of installed codecs?)

the "Tr" has nothing to do with Turkish here ;-)

yes you are right ...
