String type and Unicode string

In Mobile, a Unicode string is considered as being a string:
MaChaîne is string UNICODE
TypeVar(MaChaîne) // renvoie wlChaîne
In WINDEV or WEBDEV, a Unicode string is considered as being a Unicode string:
MaChaîne is string UNICODE
TypeVar(MaChaîne) // renvoie wlChaîneUnicode

System integer

  • The system integer automatically adapts to the size supported by the compilation mode (4 bytes for a program compiled in 32-bit mode, 8 bytes for a program compiled in 64-bit mode).
  • For applications compiled in 32-bit mode, TypeVar returns 8 (wlInt).
  • For applications compiled in 64-bit mode, TypeVar returns 9 (wlInt_8).
Component: wd290vm.dll
