Question

i have a JSON file that i’m trying to parse using SBJson.

the response string that i’m receiving is displaying arabic characters correctly when i do a

NSLog(@"%@",responseString);

but whenever i use the SBJson parser

NSDictionary *myDictionary = [responseString JSONValue];

and try

NSLog(@"%@", myDictionary);

my arabic characters are transformed to something weird:

\U0633\U0627\U0642\U064a\U0629 \U0627\U0644\U0645\U0633\U0643

please can anyone help

“\U0633\U0627\U0642\U064a\U0629 \U0627\U0644\U0645\U0633\U0643” is actually just the encoding that Objective-C uses for none ascii characters. Try adding a subview/label on whatever you’re testing with which will display the text. First try with “responseString” and then “myDictionary” it could display the same.
