Description Cédric Belin 2009-02-26 14:35:45 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.4)
Compiler:          Qt User Interface Compiler version 4.4.3 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I designed an UI in QT Designer for use with Qyoto (Qt C# binding).
As I'm French, some of my QLabel objects use stressed characters (like é, è, ç, à, û... even other non-ASCII characters like ©).

When I compile the .ui file with UICS (the UI compiler from Qyoto development tools), all my strings seems to be converted in non-Utf8 encoding : all stressed characters are replaced by escaped sequences that do not compile under GMCS (Mono C# compiler).

For example : "Chaîne à coder :" becomes "Cha\303\256ne \303\240 coder :" in the source file generated by UICS.
When I compile it, I obtain errors like : "Unrecognized escape sequence '\3' (CS1009)".

So UICS is completely useless for non-English languages.

Ooops ! This bug should not be related to "kde" product, but to "bindings"... Sorry.
