August 19, 2008 when compiling: unsupported char 0xc2 | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Got a "little" problem with source code and the characters/letters used in it... And would like to know how to rectify this: I'm usually using 'vim' (or 'gvim') for editing source codes, but now as learning D as new language, came against a problem with '|' (the vertical bar) in source code. Whenever dmd encounters a '|' in code (outside string literals), it errors out with i.e.: ...somesource.d(84): unsupported char 0xc2 So, for now, have had to put i.e. "if (a == 2 || b == 3)" to separate if/ else's. |

The '|' char is 124, not 0xc2 (that is 194 in decimal). I have no problems using the vertical bar in my D source code. You probably are doing something wrong, if you take a look at this post you can see your editor is using something past 7-bit ASCII, try a different editor.

Hmm, after checking my source code and my own post to this newsgroup with a hexedit, I think it's not just editor issue... there's an invisible "0xC2" character following the 2nd '|' in my own post and the source code...
Not a D, issue. Heh, sry - should've thought checking the hexdump earlier.

check the encoding vim uses
D accepts either ascii (<=127) or unicode.
:set encoding=utf-8

Ah! Thanks, that fixed it.
