Utf8ToString shortens strings with national characters

Hi,

only the part before the national character is in the result.

Utf8ToString('parkolás')  ---> 'parkol'

Versions:
FPC/Lazarus fixes branch -up to date

Are you sure your source code file is UTF-8 encoded?

Re: Utf8ToString shortens strings with national characters

The problem was stated in a misleading way. Sorry! It actually works when the parameter is a constant.

In my case the value comes from an XML reader as a UnicodeString which is assigned to a RawUTF8 property. No direct conversion, the compiler is handling it, because anything I have tried made it worse.

When this property is the parameter, that is when the problem occurs.
