By "it basically treats them as UTF-16" do you mean Euphoria or wxEuphoria? I'm very certain that Euphoria does not treat them as utf-16. In which case, how does conversion from Euphoria text to UTF-16 occur?
wxEuphoria does. And it puts each 'wide' character in a single euphoria integer as an element of a sequence. Here is the C++ code that converts a sequence to a wxString. It actually works for both the unicode and the ANSI version of wxWidgets:
wxString get_string( object seq )
{
wxChar * str;
if( !IS_SEQUENCE(seq) )
RTFatal("expected a sequence");
s1_ptr s1 = SEQ_PTR(seq);
int len = s1->length;
str = new wxChar[len+1];
for( int i = 1; i <= s1->length; i++ ){
object x = s1->base[i];
if( IS_SEQUENCE( x ) ) return wxEmptyString;
if( !IS_ATOM_INT( x ) )
x = (long) DBL_PTR(x)->dbl;
str[i-1] = (wxChar) x;
}
str[len] = 0;
wxString s( str );
delete[] str;
return s;
}
