wtf/unicode/UTF8.h is conflicting with ICU header in MSVC builds. I'd like to rename wtf/unicode/UTF8.h to wtf/unicode/WTFUTF8.h. Any suggestion?
What about Unicode.h or UnicodeHelpers.h? UTF8.h deals with UTF16 as well
While I don’t love other of those names, I do like the idea of avoiding awkward “WTF” in the filename. I don’t think it’s right to say “deals with UTF16”; this header contains only functions about dealing with UTF-8 and converting UTF-8 to and from other encodings (and yet those other encoding include UTF-16). With a few seconds thought I am thinking that maybe UTF8Conversion.h or UTF8Transcoding.h are possible better ideas for new names. Neither is completely accurate. If we were going to add the word “helpers” than I would say UTF8Helpers.h, but I really don’t like those kinds of word in header names (“utilities”, “helpers”, “functions”, “classes”). A separate issue once we rename: the header is also pretty old and crufty. Eventually we might want to remove or refine the functions in here. Not sure how widely they are used. — Darin
