Printf problem with special characters like: æ Æ Ø ø å Â

Michel Ketelaars

Hello everyone,

I have a problem storing special characters with uVision editor.
When I store the following line which stand in a example.c file:

 printf("æ Æ Ø ø å Â");
it is converted to incorrect ASCII values.

I can solved the problem by replacing the line and use the correct ASCII value as hex codes:

 printf("\x91 \x92 \x9D \x9B \x86 \xB6");
Then of course it is working fine but not very readable.

Why converts uVision these special characters and why do I not have this problem with other C-editors like UltaEdit?

(I use uVision2 v2.4)

    The codes for (and even the presence of) ("æ Æ Ø ø å Â") vary from keyboard to keyboard. In countries where they are commonly used they are implemented as substitutions (if my memory serves me correctly in Denmark '$' print as "Ø") Anything abve 7f and certainly æ Æ Ø ø å Â is NOT ASCII (remember 'A' im ASCII stan for 'American').
