Talk:Migration to Unicode

Peter gummer 22:25, 25 September 2012 (UTC) These are interesting guidelines. Is this recommended already in EiffelStudio 7.1?

Our code currently uses STRING almost everywhere; the ECF maps STRING to STRING_8. Do the guidelines mean that we can change the ECF mapping from STRING to STRING_32? This would be much faster than editing every class individually.

The guidelines recommend using some *_FILE_32 classes. Most of our files are UTF-8, not UTF-32. Will using the *_FILE_32 classes work?
