[Opencxx-users] wide character support

[Stefan S. <se...@sy...>]

hi there,

I'm looking into the wide character support that has been
added to opencxx recently (?) as I try to merge an equivalent
patch into synopsis.

The 'Encoding' class doesn't appear to account for wide characters.
Is that an omission or am I missing something ?

Regards,
		Stefan

I just committed a patch (to the 'sandbox_jakacki_frontend1' branch)
to add wide character support to the Encoding and TypeInfo classes.
It seems no opencxx user has noticed so far, only I did in synopsis.
I backported it anyways, for completeness.

Thanks, Stefan. Indeed that must have been an omission. Could you also add
a testcase?

hmm, ok, once I understand how the TypeInfo class works ;-)
In synopsis I only use the Encoding class, and the docs state to
keep TypeInfo in sync whenever Encoding is changed, so I just
followed the example...
I'll have a closer look.

I never had time to understand if this is really necessary. Looks like a
gratituous coupling.

well, the dependencies aren't gratituous. As we discussed, the 'mop' classes
all depend on the 'parser' classes, and that's particularly true for the
'TypeInfo' / 'Encoding' relationship.

That said, it may be possible to better encapsulate the encoding stuff inside
the Encoding class such that changes as the one I applied doesn't require a
code change in the TypeInfo.
