Working With UniCode in NetLinx Studio v2.4
Starting with NetLinx Studio 2.4, NetLinx now supports 16-bit Unicode characters. You can type
Unicode character literals strings into you program, assigned them to variables, manipulate them using
string operations, read and write Unicode characters to the file system and send Unicode strings to user
interfaces for display.
Configuring NetLinx Studio
Before you begin to work with Unicode, you must enable the UTF-8 Unicode option and the Unicode
Compile option in NetLinx Studio. The UTF-8 Unicode option will tell Studio to store your file as UTF-
8, which will support Unicode characters. The Unicode Compile option will tell Studio to process the
_WC pre-processor statements to properly handle Unicode embedded in your source files at compile
time.
To enable UTF-8, in NetLinx Studio:
1.
Choose
Settings-> Preferences
from the menu bar.
2.
Select the
Editor
tab of the Preferences dialog (FIG. 1).
3.
