Hi, Does FPC's RTL (or FCL) include a function to check for UTF-16 surrogate pairs? I'd be very surprised if there isn't, but I have yet to find it in the documentation or source code I searched.
I need to process one "character" (loosely based on what you see on the screen) at a time while calculating text width up to a maximum width. I need to make sure I handle all Unicode text correctly, thus NOT just the BMP of the Unicode standard, but all supplementary planes too. My alternative is to convert the text from UTF-16 to UTF-8 and then process it, but in this instance I'm hoping to stay with UTF-16 [never thought I would ever say that out loudly! ;-)] Regards, Graeme -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ My public PGP key: http://tinyurl.com/graeme-pgp _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
