Re: How to use Unicode with Carbon

I would like to created a carbon application and use UTF-8 encoded

UTF-16 and then send the string to Carbon.

How can I do this? I tryed something like this:

ignoreResult := CreatePushButtonControl(nil, GetQDRect(200, 200, 100, 50),
CFSTRP('Showñãłø Dialog'), button2);


But it doesn't work

CFSTR() (and I presume the derived CFSTRP?) doesn't understand UTF-8, only ASCII. If you want to use UTF-8 text, you have to create the string yourself, or better yet load it from a strings file (which can be encoded as UTF-8 or UTF-16).


Or better yet, load your entire interface from a nib and don't worry about how to create the buttons at all in the first place.
