UTF8StringOfChar function

Declaration

function UTF8StringOfChar(AUtf8Char: string; N: Integer): string

Description

UTF8StringOfChar is a function used to create a UTF-8-encoded string filled with the specified number of occurrences of the given codepoint. AUtf8Char is the UTF-8 codepoint to reproduce in the function. No actions are performed if AUtf8Char is an empty string (''), or contains a malformed UTF-8 codepoint.

The return value is filled with byte values for the codepoint (1 to 4 bytes as per the UTF-8 encoding). The process is repeated until the number of codepoints in N have been stored in the return value.
