XMLParsing字符串编码

Question

I am currently parsing a XML file containing lots of geo-data.

Basically the file contains a list of cities that may contain this example list of alternative names for foreign languages. The example shown shows a list of alternative names for Berlin:

        <alternateName lang="af">Berlyn</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="als">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="an">Berlín</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ang">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ar">برلين</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="arc">ܒܪܠܝܢ</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ast">Berlín</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="bar">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="be">Бэрлін</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="bg">Берлин</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="bn">বার্লিন</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="br">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="bs">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ca">Estat de Berlín</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="cs">Berlín</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="csb">Berlëno</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="cv">Берлин</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="cy">Berlin</alternateName>

        <alternateName lang="hu">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="hy">Բերլին</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ia">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="iata">BER</alternateName>

        <alternateName lang="kw">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="la">Berolinum</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="lb">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="li">Berlien</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="link">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="lt">Berlynas</alternateName>

        <alternateName lang="ms">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="nds">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="nl">Berlijn</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="nn">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="no">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="nrm">Bèrlîn</alternateName>

        <alternateName lang="ro">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ru">Берлин</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="scn">Birlinu</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sk">Berlín</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sl">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sq">Berlini</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sr">Берлин</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sv">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="sw">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ta">பெர்லின்</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="th">เบอร์ลิน</alternateName>

        <alternateName lang="ty">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="ug">بېرلىن</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="uk">Берлін</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="vi">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="vo">Berlin</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="yi">בערלין</alternateName>
        <alternateName lang="zh">柏林</alternateName>

The XML-Header looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

The parsing itself works perfectly fine, except that a lot of the names are not displayed correctly due to a formatting issue. I tried UTF-8-encoding with no success.

My question now is what would be the correct way to encode the data so it is shown corretly?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You don't say how you are loading the XML, which is probably where there problem lies if it's an encoding issue.

However, I think the problem is more likely to be that the font you are using to display the text doesn't support all of the characters sets for all of those languages. For example, if you are successfully seeing some non-latin words, but not others, then that is almost certainly the problem.

iOS does support font fallback to a certain extent, but different versions of iOS work differently in that regard, and looking at the range of character sets you've shown in that sample, I would be surprised if all of those character sets were supported.
