(Xojo Plugin) Decode Literal String
Decode a literal string. See Avoid Non-usascii Literal Strings in Source Code
// It's best not to use non-usascii literal strings in source code.
// Instead, use a binary encoded representation of the string.
// This is the string "44ης Οδός, αρ.2" encoded as quoted-printable.
// Use Chilkat's online tool to prepare encoded strings: Online Binary Encoder
// Note: For strings that have very few us-ascii chars, it's better to use base64 encoding instead of quoted-printable.
Dim s As String
s = "44=CE=B7=CF=82 =CE=9F=CE=B4=CF=8C=CF=82, =CE=B1=CF=81.2"
Dim sb As New Chilkat.StringBuilder
Dim success As Boolean
success = sb.AppendEncoded(s,"quoted-printable")
// For programming languages where strings are exposed bytes, you can tell Chilkat globally
// to give you the utf-8 byte representation.
// For programming languages where strings are opaque objects, such as C#, it doesn't matter.
Dim glob As New Chilkat.CkGlobal
glob.DefaultUtf8 = True
Dim s As String
s = sb.GetAsString()
