I don't fully understand how the Tiburon TStrings works, but consider that we are used to mixing TStrings with LCL code, and then we migrate to the proposed UTF8String. Now every assignment of a string to TStrings will have a implicit conversion. Unless there are many overloaded methods in TStrings, one for each encoding, and it is able to internally use our desired encoding so that no useless convertions are done. If this requirements aren't met, we need a new class. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
