FeatStd 3.12

String functions without bounds deprecated

All FeatStd::Internal::String related functions without bounds have been deprecated. Candera::StringPlatform is an alias for FeatStd::Internal::String.

Affected functions are:

    FeatStd::Internal::String::CompareStrings, use function with same name and additional parameter n instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::String::Copy, use function with same name and additional parameter n instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::String::Length, use function FeatStd::Internal::String::NLength instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::CodePointCount, use function with same name and additional parameter n instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::CharCount, use function FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::NCharCount instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::Compare, use function FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::NCompare instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::AsciiEncoding::Match, use function with same name and additional parameter codePointCount instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::CodePointCount, use function with same name and additional parameter n instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::CharCount, use function FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::NCharCount instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::Compare, use function FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::NCompare instead. 
    FeatStd::Internal::Utf8Encoding::Match, use function with same name and additional parameter codePointCount instead. 

    In case that the upper limit is unknown, the constant FeatStd::Internal::String::BoundedStringLength can be used. This constant has a configured value of 4096. 

    TChar and Ucs2Char deprecated

    The types TChar and Ucs2Char have been deprecated. Use Char instead. CGI Studio since long time only supports UTF-8 text encoding. Thus it was decided to remove the outdated option to also support wide characters.

    TextEncoding methods Ucs4 and NUcs4 deprecated

    The methods TextEncoding::Ucs4 and TextEncoding::NUcs4 return an UTF-32 encoded codepoint. The term "UCS4" is outdated. Therefore these methods have been deprecated. Use TextEncoding::GetUtf32 instead.

    Fixed Point Option removed

    There was the option to use fixed point arithmetic instead of floating point. However, this option was not supported anymore since long time. Therefore this option was now removed. The flags FEATSTD_FIXED_POINT_ARITHMETIC and FEATSTD_FIXED_POINT_FRACTIONAL_BITS have been removed.
