Retype "Char" to "String" and the compiler will bark. For example in
Graphics.
What about changing to WideChar then?
If you mean unit Graphics: It checks for ASCII characters. So a change
to WideChar would add implicit conversions without any gain.
You see that Unicode handling requires more than only changing declarations?
[Where changing Char to Byte in Graphics might be sufficient, as long as
such bytes are not kept in Strings]
In case of ThousandSeparator:
That would probably be sufficient. Although some code needs to
be adapted.
Then you should also see that certain means should at least *allow* to
*identify* code that is not sufficiently Unicode-aware. This would not
only allow the FPC/Lazarus developers to identify flaws in the standard
libraries, but also users will appreciate spotted flaws in their legacy
code :-)
