I would like to write ksh and sri using a Tamil keyboard.
It would be greatly appreciated if someone could provide the ASCII value for both?
Thank you in advance
They don't have a ascii code, they aren't ascii letters. They do have a unicode value, which is what you need. The unicode charts for tamil are found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_script I'd tell you the value, but I can't read it.
Under android:codes you got to write the code of the character.
Example: Character - ௧
Code is U+0BE7
Convert the 0BE7 to decimal. The decimal value you get is to be put under the android:codes="3047"

I am coding a maths app and I want to show special characters such as PI, E, or subscripts and all those things.
I want to show them on the xml file of the layout.
How can I do it?
Thank you guys for all!
You can use the Unicode value for the symbol, preceded by \u. For example, the pi character is "\u03C0"
This site: http://www.dionysia.org/html/entities/symbols.html has list of elements which can be used in xml. Just watch the second element. For example:
square = √
THen you need to conver it. For example:
String symbol = Html.fromHtml(square);

The characters in a string resource are unicode. You can include special characters using the \unnnn notation.
There are many places to look up the unicode values on the web. Google found this one for me:

When using Facebook api I get these characters as a json response. I think these are Unicode characters. How can I convert them into normal characters ?
\u0dbb\u0d82\u0daf\u0dd2\u0d9a \u0da2\u0dba\u0d9a\u0dd9\u0dcf\u0da9\u0dd2
Thanks in advance !
Use Html.fromHtml("\u0dbb\u0d82\u0daf\u0dd2\u0d9a \u0da2\u0dba\u0d9a\u0dd9\u0dcf\u0da9\u0dd2").toString();

It seems your question is how do you decode html encoded text?
Html.fromHtml(server_response).toString();
Html.fromHtml(server_response).toString();

I need to put Hebrew Character ₪ and some more like אורנג in string to check with the incoming data in java file. When I put this character It shows an error like "Some characters can not be mapped using "Cp1252" character encoding. Either change the encoding or remove the characters which are not supported by the "Cp1252" character encoding". These values are coming from SQLite database. Please see the attached snap. How can I solve this? Kindly give me some useful suggestions. Looking forward to hear from anybody who has a suggestion for me. Thanks.
Please open your eclipse.ini file from your eclipse folder with Note Pad and put the following permission into that.
-Dfile.encoding = UTF-8
Some more options as well:
For setting the encoding on a per WorkSpace basis, use Preferences->General->Workspace
To set the encoding on a per project basis open project properties and change to UTF-8
Hope this one help.
I think you'll need UTF-8 encoding for that.
These things are a little bit confusing. Reading this might clear some of the mist around encodings and character sets.
I think this may useful to you.
Keep this hebrew word in string.xml file. You can retrieve as
in String.xml
place hebrew word here
In java code:
String s=getString(R.string.hebrew_word);
Use this string as you want..
I try
Pattern.matches("[A-Za-z]+"
and it still can accept other languages such as ฟฟฟฟabc or abcฟฟฟ
what should I do?
^[A-Za-z]+$
Use start-of-string and end-of-string anchors.
If you don't, the regex does not have to match the entire string, but this is what you seem to want.
Are you working in UTF-8? Have you tried the \uFFFF, where FFFF is the hex representation of the Unicode character.
