Question

I have a label where I have to put a string in Chinese extracted from a database, but nothing comes out. I noticed that the string is not pulled from database, while all other work correctly. What can I do?

  char *subTitle= (char*)sqlite3_column_text(statement,13);
  NSLog(@" The sutitle is %s", subTitle);
      //The sutitle is
  rowTable.sottotitolo = [[NSString alloc]initWithUTF8String: subTitle];
  NSLog(@"The subtitle is %@", rowTable.sottotitolo);
      //The subtitle is

Using methods other than Western alphabet?

   NSLog(@"The string in chinese is %@", self.chinaTable.subtitle);
         //The string in chinese is 
         //is not printed to the screen,but the database is written correctly

   self.labelTitle.text = self.chinaTable.subtitle;
        //empty out

Thanks in advance

While you retrieving your data from sqlite, instead of specifying the encoding schema, use this:

NSString *myChineseText = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%s",(const char*)sqlite3_column_text(statement, index)];

NSLog(@"%@",myChineseText);

Hope, it’ll solved your problem. 🙂
