they are the premier string representation on Mac OS X.

CFStringRef isn't cross-platform. i.e. has no meaning on windows or on linux, or on windows ce, and the framework is cross-platform.

You could always introduce CFLite into the project for Windows, Linux, etc.

Although I can understand if existing code won't use it, but exposing the functionality on the Mac will make it considerably easier to interface with existing Mac OS X functionality.

I don't follow. The tools are already created, I'm just improving the
carbon backend because we are porting a large Delphi software to
Macintosh which requires more features then the current implementation
provides.

Well, then I suppose that isn't a problem then :D. -- David Duncan Apple DTS Quartz and Printing email@hidden
