UTF-32 encoding in Erlang

I want to create an application with wxErlang, in which I need to use UTF-32 strings. I can load source code from the file with UTF-8 encoding, but getting errors when the file is converted to UTF-32. I need to use Cyrillic characters in my application, that's why I want to solve this problem with UTF-32 encoding.

Solution

  • If you look at the unicode usage in Erlang page, you'll see that the current release of Erlang, 16A, supports UTF-8 source files. UTF-32 is not supported. However, if you want Cyrillic, UTF-8 has everything you can write in UTF-32.
