[Wvware-devel] String Class

[Werner T. <tr...@kd...>]

Hi!

Some time ago we agreed on using wstring as our mail string class in the
library. Unfortunately wstring (alias basic_string<wchar_t>) doesn't work
at all with compilers older than gcc 3.0. In 3.0 it works but it is said to be
buggy.

However, it seems that we have to find some replacement for it. As I don't
know the AbiWord code I can't tell how feasible it would be to use your
UT_String. Using QString would result in more than 16.000 LOC just for a
proper string class ;) I doubt we want to do that.

Any other options we should consider?

Ciao,
Werner
