Besides it seems that glibc ICONV can not handle CP932 characters properly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-14 20:56:46] yohgaki@php.net I've fixed it whole ago for systems supports iconv in libc. (Recent Linux/glibc is one of them) For systems uses libiconv, there is problem still. (I didn't fix problem with libiconv, since I don't use libiconv ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-14 09:40:57] readjust@deneb.freemail.ne.jp conversion between CP932(a variant of Shift_JIS charset) and any Japanese charset other than CP932 unexpectantly failed when transliteration mode is specified like "EUC-JP//TRANSLIT" on the output encoding and the transliteration requires some larger buffer than strlen(input_buf) * sizeof(ucs4_t). testing script: <?php for( $i = 0; $i < 20; ++$i ) { print $i.":".iconv( "EUC-JP", "Shift_JIS", iconv( "CP932", "EUC-JP//TRANSLIT", "abcd".str_repeat( "****", $i ) ) )."<BR>"; } for( $i = 0; $i < 20; ++$i ) { print $i.":".iconv( "EUC-JP", "Shift_JIS", iconv( "CP932", "EUC-JP//TRANSLIT", "abcd".str_repeat( "++++", $i ) ) )."<BR>"; } ?> where "****" is ONE character described as "SQUARE MIRIBAARU" (0x876D) and "++++" is ONE character described as "SQUARE AARU" (0x8765) on http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP932.TXT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16069&edit=1
