Why can't I just do this:
myStruct.myStr = "abcd" ?
and then:
dim s as string = myStruct.myStr ?
I know, I know, because no encodings are stored in structs, but why
can't RB just assume it's UTF8 (RB's default right?) unless stated
otherwise, eliminating the need for the very clunky:
myStruct.myStr = ConvertEncoding("abcd", Encodings.UTF8)
Or am I missing something?
BTW, it would be nice if the User's Manual actually showed us how to
assign a string to a struct element.
Best,
Peter.
