[Cartoweb-users] problems with CartoWeb in Russian

[igev]

Hi!

I'm developing CW application and want to have
Russian interface along with English etc.

Some things are already working:
- strings in cyrillic (CP1251) in shapefiles (comments to objects)
   are seen correctly in query listing.
For this purpose I have wrote this add-on to Encoder class (file Encoder.php):

/*****************************************/
class EncoderCP1251 implements EncoderInterface {

     public function encode($text) {
         if (is_array($text)) {
             $result = array();
             foreach ($text as $key => $value) {
                 $result[iconv('cp1251','utf-8',$key)] = iconv('cp1251','utf-8',$value);
             }
             return $result;
         }
         return iconv('cp1251','utf-8',$text);
     }

     /**
      * @see EncoderInterface::decode()
      */
     public function decode($text) {
         if (is_array($text)) {
             $result = array();
             foreach ($text as $key => $value) {
                 $result[iconv('utf-8','cp1251',$key)] = iconv('utf-8','cp1251',$value);
             }
             return $result;
         }
         return iconv('utf-8','cp1251',$text);
     }

     /**
      * @see EncoderInterface::getCharset()
      */
     public function getCharset() {
         return 'cp1251';
     }
}
/*****************************************/

But when I've tried to translate interface (via Gettext,po,mo etc)
- all works ("mo"-file is ready and correct), interface is "translated",
and russian words are written in cyrillic letters, but are not readable -
as like CW had made conversion in another russian codepage.
Now I still can't understand why so.

Anybody can help me? Maybe, someone who deal with codepages
other than ISO-8859-1.

Thanks!

Sincerely, Igor Evdokimov.
