Re: [Openexr-devel] UNICODE support in openexr file I/O

You don't need any changes in the interface to support UTF-8. Storing and retrieving UTF-8 strings is done with traditional 8bits string based functions. IMO, something like "character strings are in UTF-8 format" could be part of the specifications though. Unless you are thinking about sone API that would translate UTF-8 to Unicode back and forth automatically.

The type wchar_t is compiler implementation dependant – it varies in size from compiler to compiler and should NEVER be used as a type in files.

That being said, changing the specification/interface to support UTF-8 would be a good idea.

All the OpenEXR classes ( like TiledRgbaOutputFile ) only accepts old ASCII "const char*" parameter to read/write files.... That's bad because if I wanna name a file using extended characters like Ñç or even Kanji, I can't .... Please... can you provide too a wchar_t version so we can use plenty the UNICODE characters? thx
