[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #3016] Remove a couple of fixed-length string buffers
URL: http://gna.org/patch/?3016 Summary: Remove a couple of fixed-length string buffers Project: Freeciv Submitted by: jtn Submitted on: Fri Nov 4 23:50:24 2011 Category: None Priority: 5 - Normal Status: In Progress Privacy: Public Assigned to: jtn Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Planned Release: 2.4.0,2.5.0 ___ Details: While messing around in bug #17846, I ended up retiring a few fixed-length buffers in favour of astrings. I may as well check the result in, as a token blow against the endemic problem of truncating UTF-8 characters (although these particular examples probably won't make much difference). ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/patch/?3016 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #3016 (project freeciv): endemic problem of truncating UTF-8 characters Just today I started investigating if we could/should use something like libicu. Truncation is just one of the things that we should do correctly for UTF8 (so far we've just avoided any text transformations as we have no easy way to do them) ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/patch/?3016 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
