Title: AROS unicode support for Hollywood Polybios
Post by: ntromans on September 10, 2022, 08:52:06 AM
Recent hiccups with PDFs reminded me that the Hoolywood Polybios plugin (PDF support) is still not fully functionl for AROS. I think the new GCC 6.5 compiler meetd some of the requirments, but there's also a need for unvicode support. From the Hollywood developers:

"Yes, it's Unicode but without any advanced functionality like collation or so. It's basically just the standard string functions from the C runtime with support for wide characters what Polybios needs AFAIR. This is not particularly difficult to support but last time I checked it wasn't supported on AROS."

So can I plese ask the question, is this in the latest ABI0 release?

Cheers,
Nigel,

It's not there. Once ABIv0 is updated to the level of ABIv11 it's possible it will be there.

Many thanks - I'll report over at the Hollywood forums.
