[Lazarus] Lazarus (UTF8) and Windows: SysToUTF8, UTF8ToSys... Is there a better solution?

[Juha Manninen]

Lazarus team has not thought it much. The question is not acute yet and we
already have a working Unicode system in LCL. Thinking of it now when FPC
behavior is not decided would be waste of time.
My comment about UTF-8 was based on poor knowledge and maybe wishfull
thinking.
Some other Lazarus developers have more knowledge of the issue but they are
wise enough not to enter this discussion.

Let's wait till FPC developers get their work done and then let's discuss
about LCL.
If you need UTF-8 solution right now, it is possible with LCL.
It is also good to read the old mail threads because the same things get
repeated again and again.
