Can you specify the encoding to use to encode german characters in a string.

GS1_OT_API

Hi,

I am having 2 issues whe receiving an SMS that I hope you can help me with:

1. When I receive an SMS message the german characters are displayed as fractions, and other incorrect characters.

What encoding should I use?

Here is snippet of the code:

  DocDataType DocData = new DocDataType();
            DocData.format = DocEncodingFormat.text;
            DocData.Value = body;

 

2. I expecetd to receive just one SMS message, but I am receiving 2 SMS messages.

The message has been divided into 2 SMS messages and I should have just received one SMS message.

The number of characters in the string is 129. Can you tell me what I need to do to fix this?

thanks

The system should properly handle encoded characters, as long as you specify the character set of the input properly. Make sure you are populating the CharacterSet element of the Document Part.

The message will automatically be split if, after character set conversion, it spans multiple messages.  This may also be a result of some sort of character set mismatch.

If you can provide a job number or Processing ID for your tests, we can investigate further.
