String and special character (Sharp7) , changed encoding to UTF7

[Rafael Rocha Fernandes]

Hello,

I had some problems reading strings with special characters from a s7-300 PLC using the method GetStringAt from Sharp7 library

I changed the encoding from UTF8 to UTF7 and the conversion worked fine for me, find my code below:

Sharp7.S7 Class :

    public static string GetStringAt(byte[] Buffer, int Pos)
    {
        int size = (int)Buffer[Pos + 1];
        return Encoding.UTF7.GetString(Buffer, Pos + 2, size);
    }

Should you have any question please do not hesitate to contact me.

Best Regards,
Rafael Rocha Fernandes

PLC strings are UTF8, you should read an array of byte if there are ctrl chars inside
