Well, the first reports of how the unicode rtl would look like were pretty scary: Total break of the string part of millions of lines of code that people wrote with Lazarus since years. But now reading the latest report of how it will work out, i.e. that Char=WideChar only in a special mode, and that you can set some variables to get UTF-8 strings from RTL system calls, well, I haven't actually tested it yet, but it looks like that maybe our code will not break and maybe we won't need to review/fix hundreds of thousands of lines of code that have worked since years.... -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
