Description
CharW() >= 64968 compares with "" as True. I think it shouldn't
Here a snippet to show the problem.
For $i = 64960 To 64975
ConsoleWrite('chrw(' & $i & ') = "" ? --> ' & (ChrW($i) = '') & @TAB & @error & @CRLF)
Next
it results as:
chrw(64960) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64961) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64962) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64963) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64964) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64965) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64966) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64967) = "" ? --> False 0
chrw(64968) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64969) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64970) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64971) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64972) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64973) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64974) = "" ? --> True 0
chrw(64975) = "" ? --> True 0
P.S.
(a workaround) As answered in the post at the following link in the forum, the problem doesn't arise if we compare using == instead of =

Fixed by revision [12560] in version: 3.3.15.4
Fix sent to Jon
the comparison was stop at the first null string
now if strings have different size they are taken in account to differentiate the strings insensitive case comparison.
BTW the insansitive string comparison always stop at the first nul char. Be carefull !!!
