I am updating some of my documentation on using BASIC with LO and I
wondered if case-sensitive comparisons are done with locale specific
information. I am in the US with ENGLISH locale, and I am not certain
how easily I can test this sort of thing, but I expect that a simple
compare such as
Sub StrCompTest
Print StrComp("ı", "I", 0) ' compare Turkish dotless i with upper
case i
Print StrComp("i", "I", 0) ' compare lower case i to upper case i
End Sub
In my locale, this returns -1 and 0. With a Turkish locale, I expect
that the first compare will return a 0, but I am unsure how to test
this. Any insights into this?
I'm not an expert in this, but this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotted_and_dotless_I
Shows there is a small, and a capital version of the 'Turkish dotless i'
StrComp("i","I",0) only returns 0 for the small, and the capital i,
and not for the i's with diacritics (í,ì,ï, ....)
I think the 'Turkish dotless i' should be treated as an i with a diacritic.
