The code page will be stored in the record describing the string, you will be able to read it with something like StringCodePage(s). > AFAIK, automatic correct UTF-8 to UTF-16 conversion is not done by the > compiler when assigning an "String" to a "WideString".

With the code page aware strings it will be able to detect encoding and do UTF-8<->UTF-16 too. -- cobines -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
