Using RichViewEdit in plain text mode, I'm using LoadTextFromStreamW to load a string (UnicodeString) into the editor. The result is garbled text (e.g. Chinese characters for a simple a-z string), and sometimes (depending on contents of the string) an exception: "Can't perform Unicode operation".
If I use LoadTextFromStream (no -W), the result is fine for text that "fits" in current codepage, but in other cases (Greek, Russian, Chinese) the text is loaded as question marks (typical result of processing Unicode text with ANSI methods).
All the settings described in "How to make Unicode editor" are correct (text styles set to Unicode, etc.)
The code I use is as follows:
Code: Select all
procedure TEditForm.SetAsText(const Value: string);
var
ss : TStringStream;
begin
ss := TStringStream.Create( Value );
try
ss.Position := 0;
RVEditor.Clear;
RVEditor.LoadTextFromStreamW( ss, 0, 0, True );
RVEditor.Format;
finally
ss.Free;
end;
end;
