Ruslan,
I sent this to the RB mailing list, but I'm beginning to think it's a
problem with Valentina, not RB:
I have code like this:
fid = new SaveAsDialog
fid.promptText = "Create a new file."
f = fid.ShowModal
The problem I'm running into in 5.1b6 is that if the user enters
ASCII values of > 127 the UTF-8 string is converted (in the Finder)
to MacRoman (when running OS X US English).
What follows that code this:
if f <> nil then
tempDataBase = new myDataBase
result = tempDataBase.Create( f, 1, 2 * 1024 )
...
Ruslan, the file that is created has the MacRoman interpretation of
the UTF-8 file name (so Dätabase becomes D§tabase).
I've played around with RB, and I think it handles the text properly.
Which means that Valentina does not. Am I correct that this is a
problem with Valentina? If so, it should be fixed when Valentina
becomes Unicode-savvy, right?
Jon
