I think you’re asking about what string encoding is used to parse Swift source files. (String literals aren’t the only place non-ASCII characters can appear, since any identifier can contain them.) Pretty sure the answer is simply “UTF-8”. > Also, do string literals in Swift still respect the '\' escape sequences, > like in C? Pretty certain the Swift book answers this — it’s got the whole language grammar in it — and pretty certain the answer is “yes”, but I don’t have time to look it up right now. Did you check? —Jens PS: Swift language questions, unrelated to Cocoa APIs, are best asked on the Swift mailing list: https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-users _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
