Convert json unicode chars

,
1

I have the following text coming in a json file. jFiles3 takes in
SEC. 10, SE\u00bc NE\u00bc, N\u00bd NW\u00bc and retunrs
SEC. 10, SE¼ NE¼, N½ NW¼

Of course I can strip out the  easy enough. But I was wondering if there was a codepage or some other setting in jFiles3 I can set so that I don’t have to deal with the  at all.

Thanks.

The question becomes, “the incoming text is unicode, you want to convert it to ANSI, which Ansi code page fo you want yo convert it to? And since (clearly) unicode to Ansi is lossy, what must it do with characters that dont map?”

Windows-1252 should work. If there is a mapping that does not match up, then they can be returned as question marks.

after

json.start()

do something like

json.SetTreeEncoding(jf:Clarion)
json.SetCodePage( , st:CP_WINDOWS_1252)

That kind of worked. I guess it has to do with the code page. So unicode \u00bc was converted to the characters 1/4 instead of ¼. I’m going to try different code pages and see what I can find.

Thank you!
