Not all systems default to unicode. Though that looks doofy to me.
Your code assumes they do. You'd need a flag saying "amIOnAnAS400()" or
something ;-)

All,
Any idea why the following line from UnicodeRecord (current HEAD rev and
previous) is actually required?
String unicodeString = new
String(getString().getBytes("Unicode"),"Unicode");
If i remove it and use:
String unicodeString = getString();
1) All of the unit tests still pass, and
2) There is a 33x performance improvement with workbooks containing a
large numbers of strings
I am tempted to apply a patch to use my approach. Any objections?
