[mapguide-users] Does Mapguide support unicode?

[Farah]

Hi..!!!!

 

I had the same requirement! I was creating a temporary layer and I needed to
display some kannade text as alabel as well as tooltip for the temporary
layer. It worked fine.

 

I copied my required font into the Windows/fonts folder (.ttf file). Then in
my code, I did the following: ( Owner name is the required  text to be shown
as alabel and tooltip in kannada.)

 

 

 

<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>

 

 

 

String OwnerName = PropertyList[0];

 

byte[] bytes = new byte[OwnerName.length()];

 for (int i = 0; i < OwnerName.length(); i++)

     {

     bytes[i] = (byte) OwnerName.charAt(i);

     }

    OwnerName = new String(bytes,"UTF-8");  

 

Then I assigned this owner name as a string property for the temporary layer
and set it as the tooltip and label.

 

Regards

Farah

Hi all,
Can we display mapgude labels any other language other the english
We would be using Map 3d to create maps and store them in oracle spatial .
The attributes of the parcels and lots are to be stored in our national
language - Hindi. 
Is mapguide capable to dislaying the labels in any other langauge other than
english, 
If it supports unicoce then i think it must be possible , Has someone
already implemented this ? can some one guide me ?

Thanks 
Shailesh
