Why pchar can not show Chinese characters properly

[badmintonfan]

I try to pchar a string with Chinese characters
 MessageBox(0,PChar(UTF8ToAnsi('正常显示中文')),PChar(UTF8ToAnsi('提示')),MB_OK or MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);
but can not show properly,picture is attached
is there anyone know the solution!

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.   MessageBoxW(0, PWideChar(UTF8Decode('正常显示中文')), PWideChar(UTF8Decode('提示')),  MB_OK or MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);

Or use MessageDlg:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.   MessageDlg('提示', '正常显示中文', mtWarning, [mbOK], 0);

Even your PChar version is working for me with Laz trunk/fpc 3.0.4 (new strings)  and with Laz 1.4.4/fpc 2.6.4 (old strings) if you don't call UTF8ToAnsi, i.e.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.    MessageBox(0,PChar('正常显示中文'),PChar('提示'),MB_OK or MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);
