Hi people I'm writing a program that uses GnomeIconList. It has i18n support . in po file charset is declared as UTF-8 When this line is reached: gnome_icon_list_append_pixbuf ( GNOME_ICON_LIST (icon_list) , iso_pixbuf,XNERO_ICONDIR "/cpl_new_cd_iso.png","CD-ROM (ISO)"); the next error appears: Invalid UTF8 string passed to pango_layout_set_text() i read all the mails containing this error message but i can't get it right. I tried it like this: gnome_icon_list_append_pixbuf ( GNOME_ICON_LIST (icon_list) , iso_pixbuf, g_filename_to_utf8(XNERO_ICONDIR"/cpl_new_cd_iso.png",-1,NULL,NULL,NULL), g_locale_to_utf8 (_("CD-ROM (ISO)"),12,&bytes_read,&bytes_written,NULL)); or gnome_icon_list_append_pixbuf ( GNOME_ICON_LIST (icon_list) , iso_pixbuf,XNERO_ICONDIR "/cpl_new_cd_iso.png",latin1_to_utf8("CD-ROM (ISO)")); where latin_to_utf8 is a function suggested by HAvoc in a mail. Nothing worked :-(. Could you help me please?? I'm using Gnome 2.4.0 from GARNOME distribuition,RH9 standard distrib.
