Wrong length RawUTF8

In code I found few pleces where insted
length(RawUTF8)
is used metod like in "UnCamelCase"
(Sometimes i used this metod too )

function UnCamelCase(const S: RawUTF8): RawUTF8; overload;
begin
  result := '';
  if S='' then
    exit;
  SetLength(result,PInteger(PtrInt(S)-sizeof(integer))^*2); // max length
  ...
  ...

This metod works OK in Delphi (64 and 32 bit) but not always in FPC and Lazarus ,
for example
in 64 bit windows version length is on -8 position
in 32 bit windows version length is on -4 position (identical like Delphi)

This problem is in fundamental functions:

Utf8DecodeToRawUnicode
Utf8DecodeToRawUnicodeUI
UrlDecode
UnCamelCase

Is chanse to fix it ?

For example
{$IFDEF FPC}
SetLength(result,PInteger(PtrInt(S)-sizeof(pointer))^*2);
{$ELSE}
SetLength(result,PInteger(PtrInt(S)-sizeof(integer))^*2);
{$ENDIF FPC}

Always exist this difference ? Where read about fpc string ?
I try find "StrRec" definiction in FPC but nothing about this

I read this
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Character_an … AnsiString
On picture is 4B for length and othing about 64 bit 

I would like to run 64 bit ,
I will send more comments to this
It is ok ?

Re: Wrong length RawUTF8

Fpc 64 is not supported yet..

A deeper code review would be necessary...

Re: Wrong length RawUTF8

Step by step and we(I) fix all

for example better version

{$IFDEF FPC}
SetLength(result,length(s)*2);
{$ELSE}
SetLength(result,PInteger(PtrInt(S)-sizeof(integer))^*2);
{$ENDIF FPC}

I look in asembler and fpc create better asm like Delphi
version with length(s) is near  "(PtrInt(S)-sizeof(integer)"

Or other version is create for example "CONST _str_length_pos"
and use "(PtrInt(S)-_str_length_pos)"
and add few "ifdef" in Synopse.inc

After this fix , next sample project start works
A find this bug when try run  "07 - SynTest"

I need to take a workshop next project

Re: Wrong length RawUTF8

Arnaud,

Zeos 7.2 cope well with fpc-64bit.
Michael were a little worked hard at it.
You can peek into its functions.
Specifically to ZFastCode.pas and other from directory "core".

Re: Wrong length RawUTF8

I made a first pass for FPC 64bit compatibility.

See http://synopse.info/fossil/info/f1bc7c708f
There was A LOT of issues with the string length direct access.

But there is more to fix!

Re: Wrong length RawUTF8

I was able compile "TestSql3" ("Synopse mORMot Framework Automated tests") in 64bit fpc.

a lot of red and a long way yet
