Hi all,

Does anyone know whether Borland has any plans to make the VCL
Unicode-enabled?
(so we don't have to use 3rd party components).

Is Unicode support a priority for Borland?

Hello,

I just would like to note that there are several third-party libraries wiht full Unicode support.
For example ElPack library created by eldos.org and now acquired by LMD Innovative:

This has been discussed recently in the .non-technical group.

According to statements from Borland, VCL for .NET will be
Unicode-based. The standard Win32 VCL will not be changed to support
Unicode, as this will break existing code. No plans have been
announced for an additional Unicode VCL.

Is Unicode support a priority for Borland?

Market needs are a priority for Borland. Developing a Unicode VCL
requires resources that are currently allocated for higher priority
tasks. Additionally, a Unicode VCL would not work on Windows 95/98/ME
systems, which are still widely used.
