No way.

I explain as developer to developer.

Valentina 1.x C++ sources are based on single-byte strings.
This means that we have everywhere

    char* getname()
    void  setname( char* )


Now we switch all engine and all functions to 2-byte UTF16 wchar_t

    wchar_t* getname()
    void  setname( wchar_t* )

And this is not find/replace.

Everything changes!
    each string-related function use now other functions to work
    with unicode strings.

Just impossible, Jon.
