Well, the device I have Nokia3650 Does Not support iso885913,
Â the method PrepareToConvertToOrFromL(.......) != CCnvCharacterSetConverter::EAvailable

however there is a workaround, iso88594 is a subset of iso885913, but iso88594 lacks currency pound symbol and some others.
As a temporary solution I did convert my data to iso88594, which is supported by the device.

Still I would like to write that .dll, since you don't have to worry then if the target device supports that encoding or not.

Mindaugas.

Hi there,

Mmm writing a char set conversion plugin is something I was planning on doing for Shift-JIS (oops nearly wrote shit-jis there ). But you know the char set conversion dlls you need might already be present on some Symbian device somewhere, so you might not need to write a plug-in yourself. I guess you already know about the method which lists the char set conversion dlls present on the device.

Sorry I can't give you any *pratical* information .

Thanks,

Nikolas.
