Problem showing the SMS body text on RichText Editor

[saadmansur]

Hi all,

I want to get the text messages from the Inbox folder, and then display them on a RichText Editor.

I am able to get the msgText in a Tbuf Object, but when I show this text on the Editor , It shows strange characters.

Code:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
TDes CSmsHandler::GetMsgTextL()
{
TBuf16<500> SMSContent;

CMsvEntry* entry = iSession->GetEntryL(KMsvGlobalInBoxIndexEntryId);
CleanupStack::PushL(entry);
CMsvEntrySelection* entries = entry->ChildrenL();
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(entry) ;



//entry = NULL ;
TInt nCount = entries->Count();
for(TInt index = 0; index < 1; index++) // just getting the first
// entry for testing
{


TMsvId entryID = entries->At(index);



iSmsMtm->SwitchCurrentEntryL(entryID);
iSmsMtm->LoadMessageL();
entry = iSession->GetEntryL(entryID);
CleanupStack::PushL(entry);
TMsvEntry msvEntry = entry->Entry();
TPtrC nn = msvEntry.iDescription;


CMsvEntry* entry22= iSession->GetEntryL((*entries)[index]);
CMsvStore* inboxStore= entry22->ReadStoreL();

if (inboxStore->HasBodyTextL())
{

CRichText& richText= iSmsMtm->Body();
inboxStore->RestoreBodyTextL(richText);
const TInt length = richText.DocumentLength();

SMSContent.Zero();
SMSContent.Copy(richText.Read(0,length));

}


CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(entry); // entry
}

return SMSContent;
}

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

In my Application View class I send this TBuf data as a parameter to following function,to draw it on a RichText Editor.

Code:

void CRichTextEditorRTE:rawTextWithoutCarriageL( const TDesC& aText )
{
CRichText* text = RichText();
TInt textSize = text->DocumentLength();

// Interested in color
iCharacterFormatMask.SetAttrib(EAttColor);
// Set it to Black
iCharacterFormat.iFontPresentation.iTextColor = KRgbBlack;
text->InsertL (textSize, aText);
// Apply formatting
text->ApplyCharFormatL(iCharacterFormat, iCharacterFormatMask,
textSize,aText.Length());
HandleTextChangedL();
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////


But it is showing strange characters on the Mobile screen..

Is there any special way to show the RichText data??????


Waiting for ur valuable suggestions.......

Hello

I use this function to display text in RichText

void CNiuBukContainerEsms::SetRichTextL(TDesC &aText)
{
iRichText1->SetTextL( &aText );
}

In my opinion you should change

text->InsertL (textSize, aText);

to

text->InsertL (textSize, &aText);

and it should work


Good luck
