RE: [cdt-dev] C/C++ identifier validation and internationalization
|
This was intentional. Someone at IBM raised a
defect that it worked the opposite way -- so it was changed to allow the
different languages. I cannot find the original defect but 70852, 70847,
and 89853 all assume that the different languages are
allowed.
I don't think that anybody else cares -- so it can be
done either way. The "correct" answer really depends upon what the
compiler that you are using will accept.

The class creation wizard accepts
class names in different languages. e.g. Arabic, German etc. It does not throw
up any error since the CConventions.validateClassName goes through fine. Is this
ok? In one the C++ standard working papers
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/wp/html/oct97/) there is an
annexure for universal character names
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/wp/html/oct97/extendid.html). So
the standards seems to have defined the support but what is the current level of
support in different compilers and of course in CDT. Do the validations in
CConventions go through "as designed" or do they go through accidentaly? :)
