But, for an ascii-based OS, it's a compromise for getting the application working because that application, if compiled in that configuration, will work only on Win9x/ME.
We have no interest in ascii-based OS's, we have no interest in 9x/ME.
And this is what I cannot understand: the ability to work in both
enviroment
is an *added*value* to the software, not a defect.
Why? ReactOS apps have no value in being built as ASCII. ASCII is both rude and prehistoric. Move on, this is the 21st century, ReactOS is a unicode operating system. As far as we're concerned Win9x is dead.
Just another small bit: besides the functions with the 'W' suffix (while
the
remaining part of the planet uses at least the unified function names), sometimes debugging directly unicode is a pain, at least for me...
Well you stay on your prefered half of the planet and stop bothering us with your ASCII ranting...
I'd hate to see you work with C#, you'd have a fit as it's unicode only. I have visions of you p/invoking everything to make sure you can still build your .NET apps as ASCII.
The strings into the debuggers are shown as a vector of words instead of a
clear string, same condition when declaring some constant strings into the
sources, as vector of single chars... Horrible (urgh!).
Get yourself a decent debugger then, or close your eyes, or give up.
