how to convert tis-620 string to utf-8 string in java

From stackoverflow

• import java.nio.ByteBuffer
  import java.nio.CharBuffer
  

  ....

  public static ByteBuffer toByteBuffer(String content, String encode) {  
        Charset charset = Charset.forName(encode);  
        ByteBuffer bb = charset.encode(content);  
         return bb;  
     }
  

  Pass as encode argument "UTF-8"

  : still not working out quite right !!!

• private byte[] convertTis620ToUTF8(byte[] encoded)
  {
      try
      {
          String theString = new String(encoded, "TIS620");
          return theString.getBytes("UTF-8");
      } 
      catch(UnsupportedEncodingException uee)
      {
          /* Didn't work out */
      }
  }
  
  ...
  
  byte[] utf8 = convertTis620ToUTF8(tis620);
  

  Also, you might need to put charsets.jar on your classpath to support the TIS620 encoding.
