Hi,

If you are just converting text file's content, iconv should do it correctly for you.

hello all. I want to change the character set of a text file from CP1256 to UTF8, which one is better? :

1. use of high level library like icu or iconv from glibc.
2. low level transformation and use of wchar_t data type,(byte by byte)

i mean does icu library or iconv functions do that perfectly? Or do you have any ideas? regards! H.khazaee
