Fixed bug #896
John Popplewell 2009-12-08 23:05:50 PST
Originally reported by AKFoerster on the mailing list.
Error decoding UTF8 Russian text to UTF-16LE on Windows, but specifically on
platforms without iconv support (the default on Windows).
Valid UTF8 characters are flagged as being overlong and then substituted by the
UNKNOWN_UNICODE character.
After studying the testiconv.c example program, reading the RFCs and putting
some printf statements in SDL_iconv.c the problem is in a test for 'Maximum
overlong sequences', specifically 4.2.1, which is carried out by the following
code:
} else if ( p[0] >= 0xC0 ) {
if ( (p[0] & 0xE0) != 0xC0 ) {
/* Skip illegal sequences
return SDL_ICONV_EILSEQ;
*/
ch = UNKNOWN_UNICODE;
} else {
if ( (p[0] & 0xCE) == 0xC0 ) { <<<<<<<< here
overlong = SDL_TRUE;
}
ch = (Uint32)(p[0] & 0x1F);
left = 1;
}
} else {
Here is the 2-byte encoding of a character in range 00000080 - 000007FF
110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
The line in question is supposed to be checking for an overlong sequence which
would be less than
11000001 10111111
which should be represented as a single byte.
BUT, the mask value (0xCE) is wrong, it isn't checking the top-most bit:
11000001 value
11001110 mask (incorrect)
^
and should be (0xDE):
11000001 value
11011110 mask (correct)
making the above code:
} else if ( p[0] >= 0xC0 ) {
if ( (p[0] & 0xE0) != 0xC0 ) {
/* Skip illegal sequences
return SDL_ICONV_EILSEQ;
*/
ch = UNKNOWN_UNICODE;
} else {
if ( (p[0] & 0xDE) == 0xC0 ) { <<<<<<<< here
overlong = SDL_TRUE;
}
ch = (Uint32)(p[0] & 0x1F);
left = 1;
}
} else {
I can supply a test program and/or a patch if required,
best regards,
John Popplewell

======================== Using SDL with PicoGUI ======================== - Originally contributed by Micah Dowty <micahjd@users.sourceforge.net> PicoGUI is a scalable GUI system with a unique architecture, primarily focused on scalability to various embedded systems. You can find more information including a FAQ at http://picogui.org To use the patch: 1. When compiling, add the "--enable-video-picogui" switch to ./configure 2. When running your program, ensure that the picogui driver for SDL is in use by setting the SDL_VIDEODRIVER environment variable to "picogui". 3. The program must also be linked to the C client library for PicoGUI (libpgui.so). If the program is being compiled with a patched SDL installed this should be done automatically. If you want to use an existing binary with PicoGUI, you can set the LD_PRELOAD environment variable to the path of your libpgui.so file. Capabilities: So far only basic functionality is provided on true color (linear16/24/32) devices. Accessing a memory mapped bitmap, updating the display, and handling mouse/keyboard input. This functionality has been tested with several applications, including mplayer, Xine, sldroids, and Abuse. TODO list: - YUV overlays will be helpful for watching video on set top boxes or other embedded devices that have some graphics acceleration hardware - Account for rotated bitmap storage in pgserver - Support for hiding or changing the cursor - The display should be centered when the SDL application is smaller than the PicoGUI panel - Fullscreen or any other special modes - Support for indexed and grayscale modes - Probably much more... --- The End ---
