Meanwhile, can anybody who has a recent Delphi version comment on this:
B.t.w. Am I correct in understanding that when TStrings.SaveTo*()
without an encoding parameter (so, the 1 parameter version) will NOT
write the BOM if Encoding = nil, whereas the SaveTo* with Encoding
parameter will write the BOM if Encoding is nil?
(Assuming that WriteBom=True and DefaultEncoding.GetPreamble returns
something with Length > 0)
Is this indeed the case in Delphi?
That would mean that if Strings.Encoding is nil and
TStrings.DefaultEncoding is TEncoding.UTF8 then SaveToFile(Fn) would
give a different result then SaveToFile(Fn, TEncoding.Utf8).
In Delphi it doesn't matter where the encoding comes from.
If writeBOM is true and there is a preamble for the encoding (whatever it
is), it is used.
