[Gambas-user] How to deal with unicode

[Safiur Rahman]

I am converting an application to local language which uses "Devanagri" letters and numbers. I have changed System.Language to "ne_NP.UTF-8". My System.Charset is "UTF-8". I have little knowledge of lacalization methods used by gambas. My problems are:
1) Datebox displays month and week days in Devanagri but not the day numbers.
2) How can I write Devanagri numbers (eg. १२३४५६७८९०) in valuebox?
3) How can I do arithematical calculations using these numbers?
4) How can I save these numbers in database table with numerical type column? If I save English numbers in database then how can I display those numbers on application in Devanagri?
5) How can I create table columns in UTF-8. The gb.mysql works (ie. $hCon.MySQL.Table.Add("fldCost", "InnoDB", $hCon.MySQL.Charset) created column with UTF-8 type). However gb.db doesnot work wih mysql (ie. hTable = $con.Tables.Add("tbllabel") doesnot create column with UTF-8 type in MySQL database). I am using mariadb version 10.
