/* If the target program uses a different character set than the host,
GDB has some support for translating between the two; GDB converts
characters and strings to the host character set before displaying
them, and converts characters and strings appearing in expressions
entered by the user to the target character set.
- At the moment, GDB only supports single-byte, stateless character
- sets. This includes the ISO-8859 family (ASCII extended with
- accented characters, and (I think) Cyrillic, for European
- languages), and the EBCDIC family (used on IBM's mainframes).
- Unfortunately, it excludes many Asian scripts, the fixed- and
- variable-width Unicode encodings, and other desireable things.
- Patches are welcome! (For example, it would be nice if the Java
- string support could simply get absorbed into some more general
- multi-byte encoding support.)
-
- Furthermore, GDB's code pretty much assumes that the host character
- set is some superset of ASCII; there are plenty if ('0' + n)
- expressions and the like.
-
- When the `iconv' library routine supports a character set meeting
- the requirements above, it's easy to plug an entry into GDB's table
- that uses iconv to handle the details. */
