Hi Stuart,
Looks like you have got things the way I have it. Now that you can send
messages with special characters it should be much easier to debug.
This is what I have discovered:
xAP News sends out messages containing special characters.
When NO characterencoding key is set in the config files for xAP Hub and
xA=
P
Message Viewer:
In xAP Hub GUI, xAP Message Viewer and xAP Desktop the special characters
are seen as e, d and v.
xAP Intranet can discover all xAP Intranet enabled applications.
When the characterencoding key is set to UTF-8 in the config files for xAP
Hub and xAP Message Viewer:
In xAP Hub GUI, xAP Message Viewer and xAP Desktop the special characters
have disappered and can=92t be seen at all.
xAP Intranet can discover all xAP Intranet enabled applications.
When the characterencoding key is set to UTF-7 in the config files for xAP
Hub and xAP Message Viewer:
In xAP Hub GUI and xAP Message Viewer the special characters are seen as
they should be but xAP Desktop do not show ANY messages not even messages
without special characters.=20
xAP Intranet do not discover any xAP Intranet enabled applications.
The line =93Desc=3DToppnyheter fr=E5n www.svd.se=94 from the news.story

news
from www.svd.se <http://www.svd.se/> =94 and it=92s not a
TV site it's a
newspaper.
I think the way to go to find a solution to this problem is not to dig into

things and make it incompatible with other xAP applications which don=92t

Hi Ove,
I've just been tinkering with xFx and can now happily send messages
with alternative character encodings. I have to use UTF-7 encoding as
you do, but the sample message you provided goes out through xAP Send,
into xAP Hub (GUI) and then Hub passes it on to xAP Message Viewer.
I can see the Swedish characters in the message in the debugger as it
passes through xAP Send (this required a software tweak so isn't
available on the xFx site just yet), and then in the message display
windows in both Hub and Viewer.
I've also configured xAP News 3 to point to the TV site you suggested:
http://www.svd.se/articleexport/rss20/svd_top.xml
and I'm seeing some
foreign (to me anyway ;) characters in the message display windows
here too:
For example, this is copied directly from one of these windows,
displaying a news.story message from xAP News 3, and hopefully it'll
appear correctly:
Desc=3DToppnyheter fr=E5n www.svd.se
The only thing I've adjusted thus far is the way that xAP Send reads
in the message files from disc.
So I'm really not sure what's happening after this. James. any
thoughts on how best to continue debugging this?
