With Lazarus on Linux, I did some simple tests with UTF strings.
I found that the length of an "AnsiString(CP_UTF16)" is given in
terms of bytes and not of Words. Is this like it should ?
Yes. Afaik that is not a sane combination, but Delphi compatible.
Which Delphi version supports AnsiString(CP_UTF16)???
At least XE and successors only support byte-char (AnsiChar)
codepages with AnsiString and RawByteString.
There is a difference between Delphi accepting it and doing something
sane.
What's insane in not accepting (compiling) insane source code? ;-)
FPC afaik also accepts and afaik also doesn't do anything sane, so
that is
compatible :-)
What *also*?
Btw in this thread it was already mentioned that Delphi doesn't define
CP_UTF16, but one easily could define it and create the above code.
Then tell us the Delphi version that accepts an AnsiString(1200). I
couldn't find any :-(
Ehm... Delphi XE DOES accept AnsiString(1200) as I've written in my
other mail. It just doesn't do anything sane with it (Length of such a
strings seems to be always zero).
