UCS2 which is a subset (more like a draft for) of UTF16. Maybe Microsoft has fixed this to be fully UTF16 compliant in XP+ though. > The C library uses 'standard C strings' (that is 'char *string;') an > there's a function to define the character codification to be used by the > library. It's possible to use ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32. > Can WIDESTRING use all UNICODE codifications and ASCII strings? If there are differences, they revolve around the differences between UCS2 and UTF16. (surrogate pairs mostly, maybe endianess support) > If it can't, is there a way to use UNICODE strings? There is no such thing. There are multiple unicode encodings (UTF-*, UCS-* etc) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
