How to FileWriteLine() Chinese characters?

[Servant]

First, the value of my $LineArray[0] is "歌词制作 生态。破坏"..

And whenever I tried to run this code:

FileWriteLine($PathName, $LineArray[0] & @CRLF)

The line of the created file produced the "???? ?????" null characters..

Now, what can I do to make it write the original (I think) Chinese characters?

Perhaps >setting encoding on source  ?

And, use fileopen() with parameter for UTF8.

$f = fileopen($pathName, 2 + 64)  ; overwrite, UTF8+BOM
FileWriteLine($f, $LineArray[0])

 

Hint: FileWriteLine puts CRLF already.

Upon my testing, no, it's not..

FileWriteLine($f, $LineArray[0])

I'm stupid, I tried all the UTF8 flags, $FO_UNICODE and $FO_BINARY..

it does work as expected...

$filename = @ScriptDir & "\chinesestring"
$string = "北京市 - 邓小平"    ; Beijing - Deng Xiaoping
$f = FileOpen($filename & "_unicode_.txt", 2+64)    ; unicode
$f2 = FileOpen($filename & "_utf8BOM_.txt", 2+128)    ; utf8 with BOM
$f3 = FileOpen($filename & "_utf8plain_.txt", 2+256)    ; utf8 no BOM
FileWriteLine($f, $string)
FileWriteLine($f2, $string)
FileWriteLine($f3, $string)

FileClose($f)
FileClose($f2)
FileClose($f3)
 

 

Result are 3 files as attached.

chinesestring_unicode_.txt

chinesestring_utf8BOM_.txt

chinesestring_utf8plain_.txt
