[fpc-pascal] 2.5.1: Ansi string constants vs Unicode

[Tobias Giesen]

Hello,

I've got 2.5.1 now. I have a string constant like this:

const Vec:AnsiString=#$094#$06D;

This should just be 8-bit data with no conversion.

But I get 
"Error: Unicodechar/string constants cannot be converted to 
 ansi/shortstring at compile-time."

Can I tell the compiler to interpret all string constants as
Ansi rather than Unicode?

I read the FPC UNICODE SUPPORT wiki page but it doesn't go into
such detail.

Kind Regards,
Tobias Giesen
