Question

I have got problem with getting string from the file via linq.

My file is:

    LANG_FORM="nnd documents acceptance"
%>
            Response.Write "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript>alert('" & LN("KtśćóŻ") & "');</SCRIPT>"

it is part of asp file but now it is doesn’t matter.

I have to get value in LN function.
I write linq synatx like:

var LN = from place in File.ReadAllLines(item.file)
                                         where Regex.IsMatch(place, pattern)
                                         select new { place };

In debug view i have non properly output:

{ place =           Response.Write "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript>alert('" & LN("Kt���") & "');</SCRIPT>" }

My question is, how prepare linq syntax to get output properly (they are polish letters)?

Answer 1

I think encoding is wrong.

Try File.ReadAllLines(String, Encoding).

var LN = from place in File.ReadAllLines(item.file, Encoding.UTF8)
                                         where Regex.IsMatch(place, pattern)
                                         select new { place };

You can use desired encoding, not only Encoding.UTF8.
