Decode Literal String

Decode a literal string. See Avoid Non-usascii Literal Strings in Source Code C

    const char *s;

    // It's best not to use non-usascii literal strings in source code.
    // Instead, use a binary encoded representation of the string.

    // This is the string "44ης Οδός, αρ.2" encoded as quoted-printable.
    // Use Chilkat's online tool to prepare encoded strings: Online Binary Encoder
    // Note: For strings that have very few us-ascii chars, it's better to use base64 encoding instead of quoted-printable.
    s = "44=CE=B7=CF=82 =CE=9F=CE=B4=CF=8C=CF=82, =CE=B1=CF=81.2";
    sb = CkStringBuilder_Create();
    CkStringBuilder_AppendEncoded(sb,s,"quoted-printable");

    // For programming languages where strings are exposed bytes, you can tell Chilkat globally
    // to give you the utf-8 byte representation.
    // For programming languages where strings are opaque objects, such as C#, it doesn't matter.

    s = CkStringBuilder_getAsString(sb);
