.NET & UniDynArray

Hi All,

I am exploring using UniDynArray.

My Sample Code

            String xVM = Convert.ToChar(253).ToString();
            string inS = "H1" + xVM + "H2" + xVM + "H3";
            U2.Data.Client.UO.UniSession ses = U2.Data.Client.UO.UniSession.NullSession(null,Encoding.Unicode);

            var dynArray = ses.CreateUniDynArray(inS);

            var s = dynArray.ToString();
            
            MessageBox.Show(dynArray.Extract(1, 1).StringValue);
            MessageBox.Show(dynArray.Extract(1, 2).StringValue);

Issue:

My first MessageBox is correct, but the 2nd one is showing me some rubbish..

Any help here ?

The problem is when you create the session you are specifying a Unicode map.

The VM is a Unicode leader character (utf8 and utf16) which mangles the following string - if you look at the byte array underneath the dynarray you will see that it has added a \\0 for each one, so presumably that works for the first value (scans to the first 253) and then screws up the following as the next byte is a zero.

Always problems with mapping between UniVerse marker characters and Unicode.

Change to:

var ses = U2.Data.Client.UO.UniSession.NullSession(null); 

and it will show the correct result.
