Error saving sil in 7.9.3

[fherrero]

We have installed version 7.9.3 and when saving a sil the strings in simplified Chinese are saved strangely and cannot be reloaded.

Is there a solution?

Thank you very much

Please send us the sample SIL and we will check it. It looks like the content was not converted to UTF8 or so.

I send you 2 sils, one with version 7.9.0.1 and the other with version 7.9.3.0. The old version works perfectly and the new one does not.

Just checked your file with SIL Editor 6.5.24.143 (available on the web site for download):

and it creates SIL file exactly the same as yours ShoeData7.9.0.1.sil:

Could you please check your version of the SIL Editor?

Hi, I have checked the version of SIL Editor and the version is the same. I send you a video where you can see how I save the sil file and the translations are lost.

Thank you very much and I hope you can help us

Thank you for the video. It helped us to find the problematic code and fix it. The fix will apply in next update release. If you have a Full Source license and can't wait till the update you can try to apply the fix by yourself.
The fix:
1. Open siComp.pas file.
2. Locate the method:

Code: Select all

function TsiCustomLang.SaveToStream(PropType: TStringsType;
  AStream: TStream; const Delimiter: Tstring): Integer;

3. Find the following lines below:

Code: Select all

      {$IFDEF DELPHI2009}
       S1 := ConvertLineFromUnicode(S1);
      {$ENDIF}

4. Replace them with the following:

Code: Select all

      {$IFDEF DELPHI2009}
      if not StoreAsUTF8 then
        S1 := ConvertLineFromUnicode(S1);
      {$ENDIF}

5. Rebuild the TsiLang run-time package (the one with R at the end of file name).
