Category: User-Interface Group: 2.0 Series Status: Closed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Wizou (wizou) Summary: UNICODE support Initial Comment: Unicode support for all strings of install programm. It's very dificult check special symbols (for example German on Polish langs) when making multi-language setup. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Anders (anders_k) Date: 2013-03-28 13:30 Message: Done in latest CVS version, thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Wizou (wizou) Date: 2010-06-16 09:28 Message: Sir! We've got Unicode now! yay! \o/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Wizou (wizou) Date: 2010-06-16 09:28 Message: Done in latest CVS version, thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2010-04-01 11:51 Message: Need Unicode in standard NSIS: YES Thinks Unicode support is far more important than Win9x support: YES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sorin Sbarnea (intersol) Date: 2009-11-11 05:57 Message: Please integrate NSIS Unicode changes to NSIS. I'm hopping this to happen for quite some time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2009-11-10 12:57 Message: The Faq should mention: - That there is currently no unicode support in NSIS. (v. 2.45) - If, and when it will be added. - That there is a unicode version of NSIS available at: http://www.scratchpaper.com/ - Which doesn't support older non unicode Windows versions. (Win95 etc.) - And which creates slightly bigger installers (a few kb more). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2008-11-17 07:41 Message: This was something important 2 years ago but now (end of 2008) I would expect to have only a Unicode build because it would be real hard to continue to maintain tons of codepage dependent strings and impossible to solve cross codepage issues! Shortly: Unicode solves far more problems that it does creates. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Amir Szekely (kichik) Date: 2008-11-15 06:51 Message: Also requested with bug #2230926. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2007-11-11 22:38 Message: Logged In: NO Yeah! We need Unicode! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sorin Sbarnea (intersol) Date: 2007-09-16 00:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=770226 Originator: NO I think that this patch should be integrated to the trunk ASAP. Also it could be a good idea to start building NSIS in two flavors ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Amir Szekely (kichik) Date: 2007-09-15 03:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=584402 Originator: NO A patch is now available by Jim Park. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=373087&aid=1795257&group_id=22049 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sorin Sbarnea (intersol) Date: 2007-01-23 11:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=770226 Originator: NO Today. Unicode support is becoming more important than Win9x compatibily or installer size. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Amir Szekely (kichik) Date: 2007-01-19 09:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=584402 Originator: NO RFE #1639728 adds request for unicode language files and scripts as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Amir Szekely (kichik) Date: 2006-11-04 04:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=584402 No. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Aiet Kolkhi (aietkolkhi) Date: 2006-11-04 00:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1220105 Any news on this? I am looking ofr a solution to show Unicode text for Unicode-only languages on NSIS. I am not concerned about additional size, as the installation packet is over 100 MB :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: OldGrumpy (oldgrumpy) Date: 2006-05-17 02:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1472069 Oops, I didn't mean to post twice. Seems my internet connection is a bit shaky today. I'm sorry. If possible, please delete the duplicate post. Thanks! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: OldGrumpy (oldgrumpy) Date: 2006-05-17 02:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1472069 I'd need unicode support in NSIS, so if anybody had some time, I'd happily assist with the implementation. I refrain from creating things on my own before discussing the problem with the developer team, because I'd hate to break things inadvertently. So, if anybody is in for adding unicode support to NSIS, please contact me :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: OldGrumpy (oldgrumpy) Date: 2006-05-17 02:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1472069 I'd need unicode support in NSIS, so if anybody had some time, I'd happily assist with the implementation.

The problem with UNICOWS is that it's huge. If I recall correctly, it's about 300KB, which is almost 10 times the size of our current stub. It is therefore out of the question. We have some ideas about dynamically loading DialgoBoxW, calling SetThreadLocale, etc. However, we didn't get to implementing them yet. If you have another simple solution which can be easily implemented, but will not bloat the stub, I'm all ears. If you have a patch, even better. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon A. Cruz (joncruz) Date: 2005-09-13 10:04 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=22848 There are simple ways to get full Unicode (not UNICODE) support on Win95/98/ME. Doing so will allow for a single binary that runs on all known versions of Windows, with full access to features based on runtime behavior. One main thing is to avoid #UNICODE, TCHAR, _T and the like. I can assist with this, including info from Microsoft presentations circa 1998 in regards to how and why to do this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=373088&aid=1238132&group_id=22049 |
