Text Find / Replace action can't deal with unicode files

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

The Text Find / Replace action doesn't work for unicode files. If I (manually) save the file in ANSI format, the Text Find / Replace action works okay. For unicode files, the action says 'no matches were found'.

The file which needs to be processed is generated by Visual Studio (.inf file for CAB); I don't think I can tell Visual Studio to generate an ANSI file...maybe I should try to read the whole file and then save it in the hope that the format will be changed to ANSI by FinalBuilder....

We’re planning on adding unicode support to a future version of FinalBuilder.

I just found the 'text replace unicode' plug-in on your site.

That one solved my problem. Great! Now I can run my build without having to stop the build half-way, manually change the unicode file, and let the build finish.

I believe the next Delphi version will be unicode-enabled; maybe that can help you to add unicode support.
