Hi,
perhaps I don’t see it, but after four Days of debugging, now I wrote a litte test:
[code]Dim mb as MemoryBlock = “sjfh”
dim s as String = DefineEncoding(mb, GetInternetTextEncoding(“iso-8859-1”))
if s.Encoding = Nil then
System.DebugLog(“Shit”)
else
System.DebugLog(“ok”)
end if[/code]
On OSX I get “ok” on Linux “shit”. Why???
Marius
Because that method only works on OS X according to the documentation
So the only way I can see how you can do this on Linux would be to write a method that takes that string & returns a suitable encoding object by doing “select case” through a lot of them and their names
Thank you Norman, i didn’t expect that, and this was the only function I didn’t check ;(
Failure or Output to debuglog on other OS would be nice 
So, I did my own today. Perhaps somebody needs that, too.
I’m not sure why this one is OS X only since enumerating all the Internet Encoding names and returning the matching Encoding object should be ablaut all thats required
