QString iso 8859-1 conversion

[mattia]

I'm still here trying to fix this problem...

QString string = "èèèèèè";
QTcpSocket socket;
QTextStream inSendMessage ( & socket );
inSendMessage << string.toLatin1() << endl;

QString string = "èèèèèè";
QTcpSocket socket;
QTextStream inSendMessage ( & socket );
inSendMessage << string.toLatin1() << endl;

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I receive strange char...maybe does the socket do an ASCII 7bit conversion?

The server is developed with Qt3...maybe there is a charset encoding problem between them?

Are you sure you create that QString properly? What encoding do you use for "èèèèèè"?

to know what codec i'm using have i to use QTextCodec::codecForCStrings() ?
but it's return a *QTextCodec ... isn't there a sort of toString() method to print the codec name?

You can try QTextCode::name() or QTextCodec::aliases(), but better simply set the right codec using QTextCodec::setCodecForCStrings().
