Android: Character encoding raw resource files

问题:

I'm in the process of translating one of my apps to Spanish, and I'm having a character encoding problem with a raw HTML file I'm sticking into a WebView. I have the spanish translation of the file in my raw-es folder, and I'm reading it in with the following function:

private CharSequence getHtmlText(Activity activity) {
        BufferedReader in = null;
        try {
            in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.help), "utf-8"));
            String line;
            StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder();
            while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) buffer.append(line).append('\n');
            return buffer;
        } catch (IOException e) {
            return "";
        } finally {
            closeStream(in);
        }
    }

But everywhere there is a spanish character in the file, there is a diamond with a question mark inside of it when I run the app, and look at the activity that displays the HTML. I'm using the following to load the text into the WebView:

mWebView.loadData(text, "text/html", "utf-8");

I originally created the file in Microsoft Word, so I'm sure there is some sort of character encoding issue going on, but I'm not really sure how to fix it, and a Google search isn't helping. Any ideas?

回答1:

Don't use loadData. Use loadDataWithBaseURL instead. You would say:

mWebView.loadDataWithBaseURL( null, text, "text/html", "utf-8", null );

I had a similar issue with a French translation where diamond symbols with question marks were appearing in place of certain characters, including those which I had escaped. I got around it by opening file properties in Eclipse and changing the encoding to "ISO-8859-1". Don't know if this would work for Spanish though.
