Thread Unicode ?

Hello Tim,

It's only now that I am getting to the point of trying to implement Unicode
on ElevateDB. I am confused about Unicode support for older versions of
Delphi.

Do I read the downloads page right, which suggests that the Unicode version
is only available for these versions of Delphi:
-  Delphi 2007
-  Borland Developer Studio 2006

And does ElevateDB support Unicode for a Win32 application as well as a .NET one?

Thanks,
Dan

Correct.   Those are the only versions that actually provide full Unicode
support in terms of the DB unit and the TWideStrings, TWideStringList, etc.
that is used by EDB for Unicode SQL statements, etc.

<< And does ElevateDB support Unicode for a Win32 application as well as a

Absolutely, although the .NET support has not been released yet.

Tim,

That clarification is very helpful, thanks! At least I know
which Delphi version to go with now. Still on Delphi 7 till now....

Regards,
Dan

Yeah, I tried like hell to get the Unicode squeezed into Delphi 7, but it
was still missing some crucial WideString versions of various items,
especially the ftWideMemo field type.
