I think a QUtf8String class derived from QByteArray would help a lot making this happen in the real world! 1. It would be found more easily by users in need of a utf8 encoded dynamic string 2. It would allow making the encoding explicit (QString or QUtf8String or QLatin1String) in newer Qt APIs or user-defined ones, and even totally safe if disabling const char * casts is possible 3. It would allow adding QString-like APIs (like setNum(), simplified(), etc.) over the time without cluttering QByteArray Moreover, I have a specific use-case where QByteArray args are used as binary data (say CBOR) and a specific Utf8String is useful to handle utf8 encoded args without always encoding/decoding to utf16. I might not be the only one... _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
