I'm still wet behind the ears hear so bare with me. I'm trying to load
a text file into a GtkTextBuffer. When doing so with local text files,
no problem. However, when I open a file that I created on my Windows
system, the program crashes due to utf8 validation. So used
g_utf8_validate() to catch this. However, I need to be able to read
this type of file (it's a text file containing assembly code). I'm
using something like the following to read the file (using gnome-vfs):
do {
result = gnome_vfs_read (handle,
text_buffer,
BUFFER_SIZE,
&bytes_read);
bytes_total += bytes_read;
} while(result == GNOME_VFS_OK);
if(result == GNOME_VFS_ERROR_EOF) {
text_buffer = g_strconcat("", NULL);
}
Is there some easy way to determine the character coding of the file I'm
opening and make a conversion before trying to put it into a GtkTextBuffer?
