Hi guys,
you were right. The iconv routine set is not working as expected.
AIX is not offering 'same codeset conversion', so the various
initialization tests are all failing:
iconv_open( "UCS-2", "UCS-2" ) finds no converter and returns
the -1 fail code. :( -- this is a noop conversion, hence no conversion :)
Maybe there is a different way to test for an encoding ...
Peer libiconv is not building correct libraries on AIX, since AIX has
some weirdiness on shared libraries ... so i had to manually compile
source code, hack the binaries and statically link them to the program.
Now the program correctly handles kbd input and displays my typed chars !!
It also handles fonts and scaling !!
Tis is not a solution for an AIX build, but it's working ...
One passed, one new :
