Your friend can use the LCL for the GUI with disabled UTF-8 mode.
Sounds great !
He has to check (convert) the strings between his TCP/IP code and the
LCL controls (e.g. UTF8ToSys). As he has only a small GUI this should
be easy.
No problem. The current D7 code does this,anyway, it just converts
to/from ANSI with the appropriate code page,and now would need to
convert to/from UTF8 .
The new UTF-8 mode is easier for new projects. Many old projects still
use the old mode. So chances are high that it will be supported the
next years.
Am I correct assuming that "The new UTF-8 mode" is this
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Better_Unicode_Support_in_Lazarus ?
We will try to find out if this mode or the "old" is more suitable for
the task in question.
