I just have been told that Embarcadero plans to do away with the stuff
fpc is just implementing in the "Unicode branch" and is on the verge to
change to a completely new String type that is
- UTF-16-only,
- Zero-Based, and
- immutable.
And thus completely incompatible with any "String" Type ever known in
Pascal.
So
- why do we discuss compatibility at all ?
- do we like this (rather complex and not at all "straight forward")
String type that much that it is viable to implement, debug and decently
document this library ?
