[Previous] [Next]

When developing an application, you should definitely consider taking advantage of Unicode. Even if you're not planning to localize your application today, developing with Unicode in mind will certainly simplify conversion in the future. In addition, Unicode does the following:

  • Enables easy data exchange between languages
  • Allows you to distribute a single binary .exe or DLL file that supports all languages
  • Improves the efficiency of your application (discussed in more detail later in the chapter)
