<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>1) Ok for purposes of interfacing with Win32 and Xlib, what should I use where WIDECHAR used to be correct?<BR>2) Are we really certain that redefining WIDECHAR is the way to go?<BR>Not, say, introduce a new time, CHAR32 or UCHAR32?<BR>And maybe add an explicit alias CHAR16 or UCHAR16 to provide a type that nobody will ever consider changing?<BR> <BR>Or do people now advocate: <BR> get rid of WIDECHAR <BR> leave 8 bit CHAR <BR> with a new understanding that it is UTF-8 encoded, and force lots conversion back and forth? <BR>?? <BR> <BR>Thank you,<BR> - Jay<BR><br><br><br> <BR> </div></body>
