I must add, that I would be very surprised if Embarcadero doesn't use
native encoded string types for the "unicode string" support in the
upcoming Delphi under Windows (UTF-16), Linux (UTF-8), Mac (UTF-8) etc..
I'm not 100% sure about the default Mac encoding, but seeing that it
comes from FreeBSD, I would guess UTF-8 there too.
AFAIK the UnicodeString allows for any dynamic encoding, be SBCS, MBCS
or UTF-8/16. The element (char) size and encoding have become part of
every Unicode string descriptor.
This is wrong.
The following compiles:
type
UTF8String = type AnsiString(65001);
but the following does not:
type
UTF8String = type UnicodeString(65001); // ';' expected, but '(' found
Tested using Delphi XE (65001 is the codepage for UTF-8 on Windows).
