I would be surprised if the UTF-8 support in Windows was anything deeper than the A functions creating a W string and calling W functions, which is what Rust is doing already.
- tialaramex 3y agoThe question is whether that's all they ever do, or whether gradually some parts of Windows begin to decide to be UTF-8 first and their W functions now translate the opposite way. This must be tempting for some networking stuff, where you're otherwise taking a perf hit compared to Linux.
