With \x, we sometimes had to do the "" trick, as the length is not
predefined. With C++11 bringing \u to the specs, which has a preset
length, we no longer need the "" trick.
We set the strings to u8, to ensure all compilers use UTF-8 encoding
for the \u characters.
This was triggered by newer CLangs, which start to warn if you
use "" in the middle of a string, wondering if that was your
intention. It is a good question. And this is our answer :)
Building with FreeType is still possible and will take precedence over the GDI renderer, but
the project files don't include FreeType anymore by default. Combining GDI rendering with ICU
text layout is untested.
It is the only library we use that calls itself with 'lib' in the
name. This might be confusing, but with the arrival of cmake a lot
of these things are automated. And detection will find 'liblzma',
not 'lzma', like with 'lzo', 'zlib', ..
- Instead of hardcoding the .txt extension in a printf string, it is
now stored in an array of possible extensions. This array still only
contains .txt, so behaviour is unchanged, but this makes it easier
to add other extensions later.
