[DUG] Unicode help in D7

[Stefan Mueller]

If the first string to be concatenated is widestring then the result will be widestring, otherwise it will be an ansistring.

So in your example it would work allright, but if you want to be sure then typecasting the literal to widestring is safer. 

 


Kind Regards,

Another Unicode question (D7).

 

var: Folder: WideString;

…

Folder := WideIncludeTrailingBackslash(Folder);

WideFindFirst(Folder+'*',faReadOnly…);

 

Will the compiler convert the ‘*’ to the Unicode equivalent?  Or should I do

Folder+WideString('*')?

 

Cheers.
