Hi.

I compile whole project with -FcUTF8, but sometimes should be useful
to define string constant with CP_NONE to prevent conversions.

Example:

DefaultSystemCodePage:=1250
variable s contains text with cp=1250

s := s + '#'; //conversion because '#' has cp=65001

Is possible to define '#' without cp?
Or is possible to do fast string concatenation without conversion?


A concatenation is done without conversion if all strings have the same
code page. You can enforce the code page using SetCodePage() which has a
parameter to not convert the string to that code page. You can retrieve the
code page using StringCodePage().
