Implement support to encoding other than ascii

Open svituz opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

Description

Implement support to encoding other than ASCII. The encoding will be specified as Element's parameters. The parser will use the encoding specified in MSH.18 (CHARACTER_SET). but it should also accept a new argument to specify the encoding of the separators. That's because if the separators are encoded with not-ASCII characters (e.g., "é") there's no way to read the encoding from the MSH.18 field

I tried to use hl7apy with Unicode encoding but realize it's probably not supported yet. Any progress on Unicode support?

Hi symbalsyd, at this moment we're not planning a development iteration, but the support to this feature is definetely one of the most important task for the next release.
